I know its kind of a stupid question but I just want to confirm. Duke requires first quarter grades to be sent in, will they inform my couneslor through commonapp to submit my first quarter grades or do I need to turn in some form to my counselor? Thanks!
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.”
