@Alex90627 when will you do the next school exam? May be your counselor could talk to duke and explain your situation.
@cat111111000 hey thanks for your reply! I will consider doing that.
Guys I have been reading all the ed threads for duke on here and comparing, Im so nervous. I know all my recommenders really well, but i chose math and science teachers, so their essay might be less polished.
yep, if they offer one
proJ26- Im gonna do marine biology too!!
@k8echeer I was contacted about an interview today, so keep a lookout.
Are submitting first quarter grades mandatory even if my first term doesn’t end then? My school goes by semesters, so I was wondering if Duke would still find it necessary for me to send my first quarter grades.
I’ve seen someone who was contacted with an interview already. Why is it so fast? Don’t admission officers review our applications after 11/1? I haven’t submitted my application yet so I’m asking.

heyy how do you submit quarter grade reports?
For those asking about submitting quarter grade reports/semester grade reports, etc:
I would take a look here: https://admissions.duke.edu/application/instructions#transcript
“We require first quarter or first marking period grades for all Early Decision applicants by November 12 or as soon as they are available. Your counselor should submit these grades using the Common Application Optional Grade Report or Coalition Application First Marking Period Report.”
“If your school will be unable to provide us with official midterm grades by mid-November, you should request an unofficial progress report to be sent by a school official. A student’s senior year academic work is often a critical component of our review.”
My subject test scores (self-reported) are not seen in my application portal. Should I contact Duke? Is anyone else able to see it?
How did it take for y’all to get access to the portal? I just submitted my application on Friday.
@Texan5362 I got an email in around one business day
@cat111111000 Ok thanks, I’m just anxious about getting it before the deadline haha
toured this friday and finally submitted!! just need my transcripts to go in on momday and i should be in the clear…super nervous about an interview though. anyone have any tips for that??
Did anyone use ■■■■■■■■■■■?.. Just got my application reviewed from them and they are based at Duke - seems like they know what the adcom at Duke looks for.
Top Tier Prep (TTP) is a student-run college consulting firm at Duke, and I would recommend people in this tread who are applying ED to especially Duke to take a look. If any of you guys wants more info, take a look at its website: ■■■■■■■■■■■.com. I heard its pretty decent.
Just submitted my ED application, pray for ya boi
