Duke Application Deadline Extension

So I got an email from Duke saying that the application deadline was extended to January 5th (from January 2nd). On their website, however, they have a banner that says deadline extended to January 2nd, which was already the due date. Does anyone know the actual date? Thank you!

I got the same email and am also confused. I assume that they’re giving us a pass to submit our application by Sunday but I don’t know how that will play out on Common App since the deadline on there is still the 2nd.

So is it still due on the 2nd or fifth?

Do you need the extra time? If you thought the date was the 2nd, you should be done with it, or pretty darn close. I wouldn’t recommend waiting just because you can.

They changed the website today. Now it says January 5th

I visited DUKE this summer, flying in from Philly and loved it there. I have been torn between nursing and pre-med and once I found that their nursing was only at a graduate level, I held off on applying. I feel like I got an email every few days and with the extension thought it must be a sign! I completed and submitted yesterday, very much not like me, on the deadline date. However, my letters, official scores and transcript won’t likely go until today. Do you think that this will automatically disqualify me? I spent $85 yesterday and then nearly $30 for my July and Feb ACT . I have yet to pay for to send my subject tests. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

@TommyBCBW
Colleges do allow for the letters, transcripts and test scores to arrive after the application deadline. You will not be ‘automatically disqualified’. Good Luck!

Thank-you!
