No request for additional info through idocs. Not sure if this means anything or not. Guessing that if you do get a request that it’s a positive sign.
Portals says:
Note: Some applicants may be required to submit copies of tax returns and/or additional documentation to the College Board. If this is the case, you will receive an email communication from the College Board providing you with instructions on how to submit any additional requirements through their online IDOC service. If you do not receive a request to submit additional information, the Karsh Office of Undergraduate Financial Support has enough information to provide an estimated financial aid award at the time of admission.
D’s financial aid section of the portal is completely empty and the checklist is not showing up… is that a bad sign? We submitted the FAFSA and CSS a few months ago…
@techbrain You don’t need to worry about it because every applicant doesn’t have a chance for an interview. You can submit an optional additional recommendation letter in place of interview, but not sure if AO still accepts it.
I will ask guidance to send over the recommendation tomorrow, hopefully it helps the app. I hope not having an interview does not adversely affect the chances. Thanks @singingbear
Got this in auto response when send a note to regional counselor. Has the address where to send additional reco. Hope that helps.
If you or someone writing on your behalf wishes to send an additional letter of support, please send it to <a href="mailto:undergrad-admissions@duke.edu">undergrad-admissions@duke.edu</a> and it will be added to your application file. Please note that we cannot confirm receipt of additional letters of recommendation.

I believe Duke has usually released decisions on April 1st, sometime in the afternoon (tears). HOWEVER they should be releasing merit scholarship announcements pretty soon, and those might come with an early offer of admission.
Last year they came out on March 29, the last Thursday of the month (even though it was said they would come out on the 1st of April). Since the 30th is a Saturday this year, as was the 1st last year, I would assume that they may come out on the 28th this year. Good luck!
