Found out about the program late and applied regular decision… such a cool opportunity. Good luck everyone ❤️
 
Nope, but I know last year they released decisions around this week (22nd or so) but I guess they are a little delayed this cycle.
It says that March 4th was the earliest they'd send decisions this year! :)
 
I also applied for regular review. Best of luck to all those getting their decisions in 2 days!

For those who did priority review when do you think we'll hear today? Has anyone heard yet?

Based on what I've seen, people usually find out by around noon (EST), but I'm not 100% sure

I have a 3.96 cumulative GPA, 3.97 science GPA. (517 MCAT but I didn't submit that).
Congratulations! Just out of curiosity, you have amazing stats so made made you want to apply to an SMP program?

Thank you! The biggest reason I applied is because I'm an international student, which has made getting an interview/acceptance from any medical school in the US extremely difficult/impossible (mostly due to the fact that schools that take internationals tend to be T20 or take over-qualified students over traditional undergraduates). I wanted to do something competitive yet meaningful during my gap year and Duke's program was unique in that it has a strong medical basis and incorporates clinical experience into the curriculum. Plus, it has some ties with Duke's SOM and will complement my undergraduate education pretty well :)

Oh that makes sense. Congratulations once again and I’m sure you’ll do well in the program. Good luck!

It says from 3/11 - 4/8 on a rolling basis, but based on past threads it seems that a lot of regular review decisions came out on the last possible day lol. We can hope for sooner than later 🤞

Congrats! I don’t think there’s a Facebook group (at least not one that I’m aware of)
