<p>Is that normal?</p>
<p>Did you submit your application before the 10th of December?</p>
<p>^ Because that was the priority deadline for all prospective students who wanted to be contacted for an interview. Sorry I didn’t include that in my first post, haha.</p>
<p>I submitted before Dec 10th but I haven’t been contact either. But that’s probably because Singapore’s applicant to interviewer ratio is high every year.</p>
<p>Ohh! I didn’t submit before December 10th…crap, was I supposed to? I submitted it on Jan 1st. Does that put me at a disadvantage?</p>
<p>As my parents say, you messed up on your application. Sorry, but you made a mistake somewhere in being chosen for an interview.</p>
<p>hmm, I submitted by Dec 10th but I have not been contacted either…</p>
<p>You won’t be at a disadvantage. For the majority of people, interviews don’t really give them that much of a leg-up over their competition.</p>
<p>Yeahhh and I submitted my app near the deadline (Jan1) and got an interview request about 2 weeks later. They seem to be randomly assigned.</p>
<p>It’s very strange. I submitted before December 10 and haven’t gotten one. Not too worried though.</p>
<p>I submitted mine Nov 22nd- no interview.</p>
<p>I also submitted mine before 10 Dec. and haven’t been contacted about an interview.</p>
<p>Don’t worry. Last year my D was not contacted for an interview and she was accepted and is attending Duke now. We went to a regional gathering during the summer for accepted students and alumni and they said they didn’t have alumni in our city to interview applicants. It is probably just a function of where you live and where the alumni volunteers are.</p>
<p>^Right, but I live half an hour from campus.</p>
<p>I didn’t either, but an alumni in my area said that Duke was really overwhelmed with applications and there was mixups/confusion with the interviews so many people ended up without being contacted.</p>
<p>getting an interviewer depends on the area you live in. I live in a rural area so the chance of having a duke alum near was little, therefore i didn’t have an interview. i still got in. Duke cannot take your application any less seriously because no one contacted you for an interview.</p>
<p>dont worry, i got mine today on feb 9
i thought they never bothered to contact me…</p>
<p>I got mine in December.
Good luck to you.</p>
<p>No interview here either.</p>
<p>Got mine two days ago, February 11.</p>
