It is my first ever application and I am so excited :)
Considering I have very little chance of getting a call,I have no idea where my excitement stems from.


same here. first app ever. I have a hard time sleeping. The next 11 hours will be brutal.



I am sure its because we have one date for Fuqua, unlike most other colleges. I am getting more biased towards rolling decisions now.


Me too; this is my first app ever. wish good luck to everybody

Does anyone know what the implication of NOT receiving an interview invitation today is? Is it the same as being dinged or is being waitlisted still a possibility?

From what i understood from a previous post, it is possible to be waitlisted without an interview.

Excited and nervous. Duke is one of my top choices, so I will be really disappointed if it does not workout out. Also, need a boost after that Harvard ding yesterday!!

Does anyone know if the delivery of email and online status change happen at the same time? I have been refreshing both since this morning.

Yes, because we all have worked our butt off for this email. A buddy of mine once said that getting the acceptance call feels better than getting married or having a kid :-D

Good luck today, everyone! Just so you know, last year R2 invites went out at 5:18pm et, so you could be in for the long haul today. Hopefully you'll be pleasantly surprised with an earlier email though! I have my fingers crossed for all of you.

Since duke has an open interview period earlier on in the app process, it's tough to tell

Yeah, but because they take about 5 weeks to invite people for interviews so they must go through all the applicant materials before calling them so i am not sure but the interview could be a make or break component in the process?? At most schools is it more like 50-60% acceptances after interviews?

I'd look at it this way, if they invite you, you're past the first stage. After that, the interview will make or break (or waitlist... :-/ ) you. If you are invited, crush the interview, and you're in.
