Duke and likely letters

<p>Oh yea, it is tomorrow--Feb. 24...eek!</p>

<p>would you have already received some notification if you were in the running for a robertson?</p>

<p>recognition apparently comes today (see the other thread)? weird, the Robertson website says Feb. 24
Ah well, someone will get it on this website and he/she will clear things up</p>

<p>Mallomar, I'm not sure where you're getting this info about the 24th. The selection calendar on the website says Feb. 23, 2007.</p>

<p>Got a likely letter today (postmarked Feb 15 -_-). I was floored</p>

<p>It makes me feel a little better to know people are still getting them, but I'm not holding my breath.</p>

<p>i keep waiting for duke to call and say that they sent me tha BSAI thing by mistake :(</p>

<p>Sweet, I got a likely letter!</p>

<p>I'm from southeast Florida. Where are the other 349?</p>

<p>Is the scholarship mentioned the AB Duke one, or something else? AB Duke would be hella sweet</p>

<p>I have a question. If you don't get a likely letter but you have been selected as a semifinalist for the Robertson Scholar program, does that mean that you are...in? I would think that it does and it sort of briefly mentions it in the email but I'm not positive.</p>

<p>yeah, it means you're in if you get the Robertson scholar program letter</p>

<p>so are people still getting likely letters???</p>

<p>just curious because i got a dartmouth one, but duke would be even cooler.</p>

<p>Keep hoping! Our likely letters said that if you don't hear from Duke by mid-March about being a scholarship finalist, then you can be certain you weren't selected for scholarships. But it's not even March 1st, so you have plenty of time. Anyway, most admitted students don't get likely letters (only 350)--you could have been #351, and it won't matter in the end.</p>

<p>the robertson people definitely told me that they only consider people for the scholarship who have already been accepted to the school (duke or UNC). so if you're a robertson semifinalist, you're in at duke. congrats!</p>

<p>I just found out today that I'm a likely candidate. The letter was sitting on my family room table for a whole week before I realized the mail existed. Haha. Foolish me. </p>

<p>2nd likely as of right now. Last week's Columbia, and now Duke's. yeah!!!</p>

<p>Still waiting for my top choices though.</p>

<p>What other schools did people who got a likely letter from Duke get into? (either early admissions or likely/early notification letters from other schools).</p>

<p>I'm a finalist in the Emory Scholars Program. That's the only other school I have heard from so far.</p>

<p>I got in early to Yale.</p>

<p>Likely letters from Dartmouth and UVA. In at UMD-CP</p>

<p>In at Georgetown, likely from UVa.</p>
