Duke robertson scholarship

Did anyone else apply? I believe semi-finalist notifications are to be released soon.

I applied, but haven’t heard anything regarding semi-finalists. Does anyone know on what date they are going to be released?

@livy2462 Last year, I think people heard back Feb. 20th

The website says mid February for semifinalist notification, and 2/24 for Skype interviews. Based on that, I think we’ll hear back this week.

Someone on the UNC thread called the office; they said the release is this Friday the 17th. That’s pretty short notice for the interview…

Where did you see that? I can’t find that thread.

If you are selected as a semi-finalist, does this mean acceptance to Duke University?

Thank you

It doesn’t absolutely mean you’re accepted, but it’s pretty much implied. I don’t think they’d consider offering a full ride to someone if they weren’t certain that that person would be accepted.

Semi-finalist!

How do you know if you’re a semifinalist for duke or unc if you applied to both?

@Runner99 Good point. Perhaps try calling the Robertson Scholarship people?

@ticktacktoe how do you know if you’re a semifinalist?

@tfc38z You should get an email. Check your spam?

@ticktacktoe weird. I couldn’t find anything (in mail or spam). Are you an OOS or IS applicant? Maybe they’re releasing at different times?

@tfc38z OOS. Someone I know called earlier today before decisions were released, and they said they’re releasing from today to tomorrow. Therefore, it might be that they are releasing at different times.

@ticktacktoe ok thanks for the info and congrats on becoming a semifinalist

@tfc38z Thanks! Best of luck to you.

I haven’t gotten the email yet either. Usually they post on their website the day they release decisions, which they haven’t done yet. I guess the rest of us will get them tomorrow.
