<p>I’m so anxious just to hear back, does anyone know what day they released the early decisions last year?</p>
<p>December 10th I think. 31 more days untill the 15th!!! It would be really nice if they came out early this year</p>
<p>1 month…oh joy.</p>
<p>i have my alumni interview today and am doing a little prep now.
i just saw that the ED pool went up 14% for trinity…whruwhruw makes it all the harder for me to get in=/ so so nervous</p>
<p>^ How do you find out information like that? Anyways, Duke is my #1 choice. I’m applying RD but I have a 4.0uw, 4.35w GPA and my SAT scores aren’t coming out until next week!!</p>
<p>[Early</a> Decision Applications Up 14 Percent at Duke](<a href=“http://www.dukenews.duke.edu/2010/11/early_admit.html]Early”>http://www.dukenews.duke.edu/2010/11/early_admit.html)</p>
<p>If you were to be deferred ED, would Duke consider the fact that you applied early when making decisions for RD? (cause this shows that Duke is your 1st choice) Like would this be a slight advantage?</p>
<p>Or does applying ED not benefit you at all in the RD pool?</p>
<p>My guess is that they would see that you’ve been deferred, but they wouldn’t add much weight to it seeing as how they didn’t think you should have been admitted with the rest of the early decision pool in the first place.</p>
<p>Less than a month left! What is everybody doing to cope with the wait (excluding school work)?</p>
<p>…I’m writing a screenplay.</p>
<p>ummmmm i havent thought about what i’m going to do…probably just dgaf haha</p>
<p>Anything that takes my mind off Duke. I dont know how Im going to be able to click on that link and see my decision when the time comes…</p>
<p>Did anyone else get the e-mail saying they’ve received your application?</p>
<p>I got that email today. Everything is in, the interview went well (I think?) and now I just have to wait another month…
I submitted something to a long-shot competition, and that result will come back before Duke. So I’m gonna stress about that instead :)</p>
<p>I got that email on November 1. Maybe I submitted my app before yours? (Oct 17)</p>
<p>Oh, well I SUBMITTED my app on November 1st (procrastination at its finest) so that would explain it. To be honest, I’m not sure how I managed to snag an interview so quickly - they contacted me about having one 2 days later.</p>
<p>I’m probably the only person here who would rather find out on Dec. 15th rather than earlier, but I have exams that week and I think I’ll be too depressed to study if (when?) I don’t get in…</p>
<p>good luck to you all in this process!</p>
<p>^ I’ll second that!</p>
<p>I got the email today. It was such a relief to know that everything was for sure there. I also submitted my application on November 1. My CSS profile was time stamped at 11:59pm (I think I took my procrastination a little too far this time) I had my interview and it went well :)</p>
<p>I got the email even though the app status page said I haven’t submitted first quarter grades and my counselor hasn’t submitted midyear.</p>
