<p>Quick question: Does Duke issue a new supplement each year or is it the same?</p>
<p>Same every year: Optional Why Duke essay and optional research essay for Trinity College of Arts and Sciences. I don’t know for the Pratt School of Engineering, but I believe it is the same every year. Also, definitely do the Why Duke essay. If you really want to go there, it shouldn’t be too difficult to write a page about it.</p>
<p>For Trinity, is it a death sentence to not have a research experience to write about?</p>
