Duke ED Class of 2023 Discussion Thread

@Doublekk2 Also, when both my Duke kids applied ED, they got a letter about 3 days before saying when the decisions would be out. It wasn’t a full week for either of them.

Yes.

I thought it might be helpful to provide this information to the students on this thread who are stressed and waiting for their decisions. Good luck to all!

@Doubiekk2. Thanks Bro. It is very helpful.

isn’t it crazy to think 80% of us aren’t getting in a week

^^sorry that was a bad comment lol

@sanjanagupta1 that physically hurt me

Guys, just remember that college admission these days is a total crapshoot. Duke is a great place, but you all will all end up somewhere great whether it’s Duke or another wonderful university. Keep your heads up and remember to have no regrets!

has anyone called to ask what day the decision comes out?

I constantly check my email just waiting for the message from Duke that says when we get our decisions lol.

@qrs2234 other people have commented next thursday (13th) so hopefully then or sooner, I’m very anxious

Did everyone who applied for financial aid get an IDOC Request, and, if so, were your documents uploaded to your financial aid tab? Is this any indication of anything?

@harrypotter3 I have the additional materials shown on my financial aid tab, but I cannot login to upload the IDOC stuff, and I never received any sort of email or communication saying I had to do them. Collegeboard customer support said I cant do it until Duke opens that up for me; but is it open for anyone else? I am SUPER stressed about it because I cant tell if I should’ve had it done already or not.

Okay guys this may be a totally strange question to ask since we’re all in this forum for DUKE; but the reality is a lot of us won’t get in. What are everybody’s backup plans? What other schools did you apply to/plan to apply to.
Mine are: American University, Cornell, NC state, Stevens Institute of Technology
and im considering: Boston College & Michigan, pending my Duke decision

@harrypotter3 College Board will provide you the IDOC information if Duke requested. IDOC is just for Tax return and W2 forms. It is nothing to do with admissions.

I’m confused. Didn’t Duke send an email saying that they would send us an email about a week before decisions? I doubt they will post it next saturday, and the past couple years it has been on Thursday. Where is this email? Any thoughts?

@Tellevery1 Okay thank you! I’ve been super worried bc I can see that Duke wants the IDOC stuff but it was never actually requested 8-|

@skaterboy122 From what I’ve read in this forum, they send the email closer to a couple days before decision. It seems to be like 3/4-ish days, rather than a full week.

@mogs20201 My daughter is applying ED. I received the email from the College Board requesting the IDOC uploads. My daughter never received the request…it went to me.

@mogs20201 for us it can to both my and my D email address, it just depends what email provided them for financial aid communication, just submit all the documents they requested at the earliest if you want receive the financial aid package along with the decision next week

My high school typically doesn’t have anyone apply to duke but this year there is a handful of people doing ed, with this lower any of our chances?
