I don’t understand what it could be and why we aren’t getting those emails. They have my D’s email and they’ve replied to her emails. I guess it’s not surprising that there will be glitches here and there with so many applications.

I received both instruction emails, I haven’t seen anyone say they didn’t receive it.

User_390622 and Maddy2025 both said they hadn’t received the first instruction email.

Not saying they actually did something wrong, but in a way it’s messed up that Duke sent out likely emails this afternoon and then once everyone is checking their inboxes they drop one that says …don’t forget decisions come out Monday. Man, the letdown that happened between seeing Duke admissions and then actually reading the email, lol. That’s some next level manipulation there.

Congrats giraffegardener! Would you pls share your stats/ECs?

I wouldn’t say there is any correlation to decisions because most people received the first email. At least the people in this thread.

There is nothing to read into between getting instruction emails or not.

Any merit scholarship finalists NOT get a letter? I didn’t and I’m worried they won’t admit me now :sob:

I was a merit scholarship finalist and didn’t get a letter - don’t worry, I know a few others who r also finalists and haven’t received one. I’m sure we’re all getting into Duke at this point.

I did make a point to mention my merit scholarship status in my February Duke interview and saw my interviewer writing it down, so I’m guessing it’s in my application file now. Glad I did that!

Very impressive. Congrats on your hard work.

Congratulation!
By the way, Did you receive the instruction email reminding to check on Monday as well?

That actually makes my son feel better about his pending decision on Tuesday.

And while he’s a legacy, it’s not like I donated a building. Also, did not do an interview.
