Duke Fuqua 2012 - Admitted Applicants: Class of 2014

The creator of this video is a cool guy. I met him when I interviewed on campus in R3 of last year's app cycle, and we have been in contact ever since.

Hi people,

Congratulations to all, I´m an officer in the Israeli army, and as you all was accepted in the EA!

Nice meeting you all! Already joined the FB group...

Best,

That is such a cool video, goes to show you the versatility of Duke MBA program. I am just wondering who this was made by but how does it matter...

Hi All, Looking forward to meeting you all at Blue Devil Weekend. I am from New York but having been living in Madrid for the past year on an international rotation with Citigroup.

So no one in Fuqua has given us more information right? The only email I got was verifying my address. I expected more welcome emails from them!

Also, when do we get our login details to their admitted students site. That should be simple to give...

The admissions office is a bit understaffed. They are getting better at contacting students. You should be assigned to a Fuqua Buddy soon. This was an intiative that was started by students last year.

As far as the admit site, when I was admitted in 2009, I didn't get access until after R1 decision. Even then, the site was pretty barren. There won't be much information on it until the Summer.

I was a bit deterred by those initial contact as well, made me doubt my binding EA decision. However, the experience at the school is totally different. Surprisingly, the student runned organizations function very coherently, especially the General Management Club. GMC started reaching out to student during the summer with career calls, and contests on facebook to engage the students.

Aside from the email confirming my address, I got a call from my interviewer yesterday, welcoming me to the Class of 2014. That's about it for now though.

Thanks threestripes. Yes, I emailed my interviewer telling her I got in and then she congratulated me. I guess she cant call me because its a long distance call to Spain.

I called the admissions desk yesterday about some questions, and they gave me an email address to ask some questions. Just seemed a little less personal than I hoped after being accepted.

Well, looking forward to getting something written in the mail, my Fuqua buddy, and an email with login details to the admitted students site! I guess they are still organizing themselves.

Thanks Asimov! Yes, its a relief to hear from someone in the same boat who was accepted EA. I do feel they are understaffed as my friends from other schools getting in EA were swarmed with Welcome emails and calls. But I guess my Fuqua buddy will be a great start with the communications. I know when I visited campus everything was well organized and student run.

I have been contacted by Fuqua buddy just yesterday. I am sure your buddies will be contacting you pretty soon. I think the buddy is assigned based on the preference you selected in your application.
For any reason, if you would still like to confirm your admission to Fuqua , just email them at admitted@fuqua.duke.edu

I was contacted by my Buddy today as well. I asked for somebody who has the same post-MBA goal, but I was assigned to somebody who has a similar pre-MBA professional background. It's fine though because he seems like a really nice guy.

Got my buddy today too, and now 100% sure I got in EA, haha.

Hi All, Has anyone sent their deposit and transcripts already or are you all waiting for the admission packet first?

My interviewer called me on the 5th itself..really encouraging..still waiting for my Buddy though..

That's exactly how I felt when I got an email from my buddy too!

If you don't mind, can you update your profile so that the Fuqua thread chart reflects your stats?



I have requested for my schools to print and send my transcripts to Fuqua. I will wait for my packet to arrive before I mail the deposit check though.

From India, excited to be heading to Fuqua. I have a Retail Consulting/Entrepreneurship background.

If you don't mind, can you update your profile as well? There's a new profile portal that automatically adds one's stats to their respective schools' data board. Thanks!

Hi,

Does anyone have the information as to where or how we can make the tuition deposit?
Can it be a money transfer into an account?

Regards,

All, has anyone received an admission packet yet? Also, can we send in the tuition deposit in form of a Bank Draft - Hope thats acceptable ? Thanks....
