Duke 2016 Official Transfer Thread

Rejected, good luck to everyone waiting :slight_smile:

@prohudson16 I applied to Trinity College at Duke. And @Bored1997 I am sorry, but what did your page say? Was there an update for you to click on?

Rejected

No @Division1to100 It was just there after an automatic refresh.

@Division1to100 Yeah same here. 1100 applicants and 30 spots.

@prohudson16 and @Bored1997 Ok thanks guys. And yeah I am really sorry, I am still waiting on a decision, but I have mentally prepared myself for rejection.

Anybody else still waiting on a decision? I hope at least someone from the thread gets accepted.

Still waiting…

@Surfbort Same, honestly I just want them to reject me already. I have other stuff to do.

@Division1to100 Lol same here. Although getting accepted would complicate the Amherst/Cornell plans that I’ve already made

@Surfbort wow man that’s awesome. If you’ve gotten into those schools, you have a good chance of getting into Duke. Yeah with me, I am content being at my current school if nothing works out.

Accepted. Anyone else hear back? Deciding between Duke, Dartmouth, and Penn.

@kliu111 Congrats! And mine is still at “Decision not ready”…

@kliu111 Would you mind sharing stats?

@Division1to100 Thanks! And good luck to you.

@CudleWudles Sure, I studied for 2 years at Northwestern, math and econ major, 3.9 GPA, 2330 SAT, leadership positions in a few extracurricular clubs, interned at a hedge fund and major pharma company, probably had strong letters of rec.

@kliu111 Thank you and impressive stats. But just curious, if you are already at Northwestern wouldn’t going to Duke be sort of a lateral move? Both are ranked top 20 in the nation academically.

@Division1to100 My reasons for transferring are personal, not academic or career-oriented. Duke is ranked higher than Northwestern, but I’d agree that it’s just splitting hairs at that point. It sounds like a line, but I really am looking for a certain community.

@kliu111 I understand. Once again congrats and best of luck to you.

Still decision not ready. I’ll just have to wait and give them a call tomorrow
