<p>so has anyone called or heard of a potential notification date?</p>
<p>Hi Guys!! I’m also applying Early to Duke. My mom called today, and she talked with my admissions counselor for SoCal, and she says decisions aren’t coming out until the 15th, and that we won’t get the confirmation until a couple days before the decision date, so we won’t be hearing the decisions earlier than the 15th :(</p>
<p>I was honestly expecting no earlier than the 15th, given the hundreds of applications they had to go through. Hopefully, this going down to the wire means lots of tough, close decisions to make!</p>
<p>yeah, and i guess i can wait one more week…To pass the time…How many more apps do you guys have left? I have 6 more, 4 more supplements</p>
<p>I don’t want to wait another week. People keep asking me, and I’m trying not to make a big deal out of it in case I’m deferred. I’m done with my apps and suplements (9 of them–the number was initially 12, but then I realized I didn’t want to apply to 3 of them). Where else did y’all aply?</p>
<p>@cfl927 I agree! it’s extremely difficult, especially when many people know. </p>
<p>I applied to UVa, UMich, Columbia, Penn, Brown, NYU, Vanderbilt, and a few others. I found it so tough to write about other schools when all that’s on my mind is DUKE!</p>
<p>I’m glad other people feel the same way. I applied to Duke(fingers crossed), Harvard, Cornell, Columbia, Carnegie Mellon, GW, Maryland, UVa, and VaTech. Good luck, but hopefully most of us on here will be lucky enough to pull all other apps…knock on wood lol.
I have to say this thread is so nice because everyone is in the same situation and understands what you’re going through. My friends don’t get it at all. 
:)</p>
<p>I feel you there! None of my friends apply ED anywhere (or anything better than the state flagship really…) and they don’t understand my anxiety 
I totally try to play down how nervous I am though because I don’t wanna have to explain being rejected to everyone if I don’t get in.
AH 8 more days as of 22 minutes ago…</p>
<p>CHILLAX AND WAIT FOR THE EMAIL GUYS.
the time shall come.</p>
<p>Chillaxing is so difficult. I made the mistake of putting motivational reminders everywhere last year, to help me do my best “for Duke.” Now, my iPod lock code is permanently set to “DUKE”, I have permanent posters all around and most of my binders have Duke plastered all over them. It’s so hard not to freak out!</p>
<p>A week left until we hear back…CAN’T WAIT! :)… but i’ll be on a plane when the decisions come out hahaha</p>
<p>Anyone else call recently to confirm the 15th? </p>
<p>^haha I can sympathize with you… This past year I was running for senior class office, but election day was the same day I left for DECA Nationals… so not only would I find out if I won as soon as the plane landed, but I did not even get to deliver a speech! I still remember the anxiety and following relief I felt when my friend called letting me know I won… mind you I don’t hang out with the popular crowd either :P</p>
<p>okay guys. idk about any of you but i am scared out of my mind. I just wish that they could send us an e-mail right now. I mean come on. But I just hope that it all works out!</p>
<p>^haha i agree. this wait is killing me. i just want to know when we get our decisions back. </p>
<p>good luck to everyone.</p>
<p>this waiting is killing me too! and i can’t even think about all of the other apps i have to face if i get rejected. i’m so scared. and then the website was down earlier so i think they are getting closer to decisions and that makes me even more scared and i don’t know why! lolz!
then i saw the menu icon button above my name on the duke website and i never saw it before so i thought it was new and it freaked me out, but then someone else on cc told me it has always been there. and when i click it it goes to a student center link that says use the student center to manage your school related activities and another one says view your account, make an electronic payment, and view and accept your financial aid awards, so i thought it was new but it isn’t. this is all making me feel so nervous! i just can’t see myself going anywhere but duke.
good luck everyone!</p>
<p>dec 14 it is!</p>
<p>Yeah… good luck to everyone. Personally I’m happy because 3PM on the west coast will be after school, so when I’m let down I’ll be able to do it in the solitutde of my work place, not at shool.</p>
<p>I think checking at school is one of the dumbest things you could ever do! But, results in 6 days!!! AHHHHHHHHHH! Anyone taking a pledge to report decisions?</p>
<p>Oh my goodness!! Next Wednesday!!!</p>
