<p>wait why don’t i have that tab still? what does that mean???</p>
<p>I still have the tab as well, but I don’t think it correlates with our decisions because we receive them on a separate website. However, I have a question… apparently when I was writing my “Why Duke” essay, instead of seeing the length requirement of 1-2 paragraphs clearly stated underneath, I looked at the length requirement for the engineering and transfer essays, which is 1-3 paragraphs. So…my essay was three paragraphs, one more than they asked for. Do you think this will affect my decision?</p>
<p>@hgblue
Probably not.
@bella
I still have my tab.</p>
<p>@hgblue, it says 1-3 paragraphs here for the Why Duke Trinity essay:</p>
<p>[Duke</a> University Admissions: How to Apply](<a href=“http://www.admissions.duke.edu/jump/applying/apply-essay.html]Duke”>http://www.admissions.duke.edu/jump/applying/apply-essay.html)</p>
<p>You should be fine.</p>

<p>AHHH YAY! Thank you! You just made my day. </p>
<p>On a different note, it better be the 9th. I can’t take waiting any longer.</p>
<p>Hey to distract you guys, check out this awesome ‘game’: [TakingITGlobal</a> - TIGed - Ayiti - Play the Game](<a href=“http://www.tigweb.org/tiged/projects/ayiti/game.html]TakingITGlobal”>TakingITGlobal - TIGed - Ayiti - Play the Game) it’s a little confusing at first but after you get the hang of it, it makes sense. </p>

<p>@hgblue, is the separate website you mentioned the D?</p>
<p>i called admissions a few days ago and they didnt have a definite date yet, so maybe now they do?</p>
<p>@bear1993</p>
<p>No, it was under the “applying on paper” tab (if you scroll down to the bottom you can click on the link for the supplement). But I trust that 1-3 paragraphs is fine because they say so under the tab specific for essays.</p>
<p>OH and P.S - i just found out that Cornell is releasing their decisions on the 9th. So Duke can too, right?! I saw the announcement here:</p>
<p><a href=“http://cornellsun.com/files/2010.12.03.front_.page_.small__1.pdf[/url]”>http://cornellsun.com/files/2010.12.03.front_.page_.small__1.pdf</a></p>
<p>Oops sorry I wasnt very clear, I meant, what is the separate website where we receive our decisions?</p>
<p>Ohhhh I’m not sure exactly, but from creeping on ED threads from other years, I have heard that this is the website:</p>
<p><a href=“https://app.applyyourself.com/?id=duke-u[/url]”>https://app.applyyourself.com/?id=duke-u</a></p>
<p>And I also heard that last years ED applicants knew sometime in November what day their decisions would be released because that website apparently displayed the date. I guess they fixed that glitch because our date isn’t up…haha. Why can’t they just send the email already?!?</p>
<p>i wish the e-mail would come already! i just want to know so i can stop worrying as much!!</p>
<p>Dumb question, I know…but I’m a little stressed and can’t think…where is the review/update tab, because I think I don’t have it as well</p>
<p>@gtracyiphone</p>
<p>It’s a sub-tab of the “My Application” tab.</p>
<p>I just heard that Columbia is posting their decisions on Thursday as well… what the hell Duke, come on I’m dying here!</p>
<p>it’s under “my application” next to the “to-do’s” tab</p>
<p>i’m a natural worrier. and this wait is killing me. the more time that goes by, the more time i have to second-guess myself and lose hope</p>
<p>Well…it’s gone. I have no idea what that means.</p>
<p>what does that mean ? @gtracyiphone</p>
<p>HOLY SHIZ guys
i didnt submit my midyear report!!
did we have to do that ???</p>
<p>@bella and gtrac</p>
<p>When did you guys submit your apps? I’m wondering if your decisions have been uploaded already and this is why they have disappeared.</p>
