Hello, Future Paladin Families! Has anyone received their invitation to interview for the Duke Scholarship, yet? My son received a Bell Tower Scholarship and we are crossing fingers and toes he gets a shot at Duke. I think Furman is a perfect fit for him but the price tag is still really high for us so hoping there is still a chance.
Nope. We are also on tenderhooks. Wish they gave out more of them though.
Heard a rumor emails were going out by tomorrow…but who knows? For some reason, I thought invited students were sent a fedex and all others emailed. Hope we hear either way!
Hmmm…so we wait…some more! 
All hope is not yet lost. 
i think the rumor was incorrect! unless anyone heard…
No news here yet.
Nothing here.
Any news?
Nothing here.
nothing here - three days left
Some invites for the Duke scholarship went out a week ago. They are sent by USPS/snail mail only. Additional letters will be sent as people decline. All letters will be sent out by 2/28. The school will not confirm any information beyond this. So if no letter by 3/2 that will be it.
I called Furman last week to see if anything had been mailed out and the answer was no. Letters will be mailed by the end of February.
Thanks for the info. MADMom1!
Either no one on this board received an invite, or they are waiting to the very last minute!
Does anyone know if we will at least get a rejection letter? Or do we just sit here forever and wonder if it got lost in the mail?
The Admissions department told me there would be “no notification” to those not invited. So I guess if today is the last day they would have mailed invites and we haven’t heard in two to three days (depending on mail speed), that’s a no.
Anyone heard anything?
Nothing…Anyone else?
Nada. We’ve moved on.
Same here. Heard nothing.
