Official Duke University Transfer Thread Fall 2011

<p>I called Duke and a man told me that no decisions are released yet.</p>

<p>anyone know how many applicants/how many they are admitting?</p>

<p>Last year approximately 80 out of 800 were admitted, but someone posted that Duke over-enrolled its class of 2014, implying that considerably fewer applicants will be admitted this year.</p>

<p>@SwaGGeReR:</p>

<p>How do you know that?</p>

<p>lol…read my post.</p>

<p>I think decisions will be out on the 12th of May</p>

<p>Why may 12th?</p>

<p>That’s when Penn’s releasing their so decisions so maybe it’ll go for a lot of other schools as well.</p>

<p>They said mid-May…</p>

<p>Do they release decisions via email?</p>

<p>Just called. They are aiming for May 12th. email coming next week with info for exactly when and where to access decisions. They release them online.</p>

<p>Just received the email. Decisions will be posted online at 10:00 AM EST on May 12.</p>

<p>Good luck guys!</p>

<p>That’s so soon! But I wish everyone the best of luck! Hopefully, we’ll be seeing some accepted posts on here in a week.</p>

<p>For some odd reason, the above gives off the vibe of rejection…</p>

<p>^I think it’s the same for everyone</p>

<p>^^seriously, that doesn’t sound like admittance. I dont’ feel well about the wording. Anyone got anything other than that?</p>

<p>I got the same in my email</p>

<p>@gentlebeast:</p>

<p>Yes, that really is likely rejection. “wish you much success as you continue your education”</p>

<p>Anyone received a different email?</p>

<p>I have the same thing, but I highly doubt the school took the time to reword 60 or so of the e-mail sent out for acceptances. We’re definitely reading way too much into it. Are most of us going to get rejected? Yep, it’s just the way the stats go, but I think we should just wait until our fate is known next week.</p>

<p>I received the same thing but a small “;)” was attached to the bottom after his signature… Wonder if that means anything.</p>
