I applied to Duke ED and when I look online it says it’s going to come out by December 15th. Does that mean it can come out before then, too? Or how do I find out when it’s actually going to come out – thanks!
On the ED thread, it appears that historically Duke lets students know on a Thursday close to the 15th - but usually a little earlier. So, it would be my guess that we might here on Thursday, Dec 13th.
@researchschools I researched the ED notification dates for the past few years and posted the info on the ED discussion thread:
2017 - Class of 2022 - Thursday, 12/14
2016 - Class of 2021 - Wednesday, 12/14
2015 - Class of 2020 - Thursday, 12/10
2014 - Class of 2019 - Thursday, 12/11
2013 - Class of 2018 - Thursday, 12/12
2012 - Class of 2017 - Thursday, 12/13
The date is typically released by email to the applicants about a week before the decisions are posted.
Based on this history, I would guess the decisions will be released on Thursday, 12/13 at 7pm.
