<p>Duke called my house about an hour and a half ago. I wasn't home so I couldn't answer it and they didn't leave a message. What does this mean?</p>
<p>call back, find out and let us know.</p>
<p>i did. there was no answer. the phone rang like 30 times. no answering machine or anything. weird</p>
<p>that happened to me with a different school, and they never called me back... so i will never know what they were going to tell me :/</p>
<p>they ask you whether you're on track or not. they ask questions about your recent performance, and make suggestions etc. it is an indicator of your acceptance probably.</p>
<p>I don't know how undergrad admissions works in general or Duke's admissions in particular, but i can tell you there is no way that a school would pay somebody to make phone calls to people that aren't going to be students there.</p>
