Duke Class of 2022 Discussion Thread

@brentley
Was it a BSAI or LSRW likely letter?

My son just got his likely letter via usps. Thin envelope that caused my heart to stop. It discusses having priority for the FOCUS program. Just starting to do our research on this program. Anyone familiar with it?

Good luck to everyone!

I’m a little confused, I also received a likely letter!!! But I thought only exceptional and highly desired students get them…does Duke just send these to everyone because I don’t think I’m special

Does anyone know what the interview process/evaluations for the AB Duke Scholarship are like? Advice would be greatly apppreciated.

I just got a likely letter too! I am so happy!!

@souradeline @FourYearsornot Congrats! If you don’t mind my asking, were the likely letters for a special program/scholarship or just a regular likely letter?

So if you don’t get a likely letter, are we rejected because there seems to be a lot of people with likely letters, much more than usual

Okay so no one has gotten an LRSW invite?? If you have, please say so. Lol

@happysnappy well, it mentioned getting priority to the Focus Program and DukeEngage but nothing else beyond the usual congratulatory wording for acceptance.

Congratulations!!! Yes you are special- @FourYearsornot =D> via email or usps? @souradeline

@FourYearsornot Congrats!! We’re you a BSAI invite?

@ballin2022 I was invited to BSAI a week ago as well as getting this today!

Dear

I want to let you know that Regular Decision applicants to Duke University may view their admissions decisionson Thursday, March 29 beginning at 7:00 p.m. (EDT). Financial Aid decisions will also be available online for those whose applications were complete.

When you decide to check your decision online, we strongly encourage you to do so in the privacy of your own residence, not at school. We believe your decision is a private matter, and for many reasons we have found it is best for applicants to be away from friends and classmates when they check their decisions. Lol

I just got a latin weekend invitation!

I just got a NASA invite (Native American Student Alliance) and likely acceptance!

Did everyone get that debbie downer notification email?

Well I am feeling discouraged… Duke and JHU are my top two choices. I already got into JHU, so if Duke says no my decision is made. How much easier is it to get into JHU than Duke?

Yes. I did as well.

That email popped up and my heart skipped a beat but turns out it wasn’t actually a decision. Ugh
