Does anybody know if Duke REALLY plans of waiting until 3/25 to release decisions?

Seems like it. Does feel like way too far away, no?

I will have my interivew in New York on 27th this Sunday, which is not on campus interview. Does anybody know if it will be conducted by Alumni or Admission Committee? I read a lot of posts saying that on campus interviews were conducted by second year students but nobady mentions off campus interview.

I interviewed in Chicago in January for R1, and it was mostly recent alums conducting the interviews. There were some admissions people in the building, but I don't know if they were interviewing or just taking care of admin-type activities and greeting students.

The March 25th deadline does seem a bit far, especially the fact that most folks have already finished interviewing. But I guess that's just how it is....

Maybe the 3/25 decision date is a plan hatched by Fuqua admissions to allow applicants to watch March Madness, see Duke win another NCAA title, boast their brand, and woo us into matriculating. :-D

I asked during a campus visit a few weeks back and the admissions rep said it was going to be admissions ppl, which kind of surprised me. I figured it would be more alums.

Hi, Jaxny

do you mean that the interview will be conducted primarily by alumni?

Scholarship information should come in the mail with the acceptance packet, which is a couple weeks following the acceptance notification.

So to reiterate that, it means admitted students will not find out any scholarship information until they receive the acceptance package? What if someone calls the admissions office and ask about it?

I had my interview on Friday and it went well I think. The student was very informative and spoke a lot about the international aspect of the program and students which he really enjoyed. I also met a couple other prospective students who were really cool.

I'm not sure why but I was under the impression we receive status updates this Friday May 4th. I just double checked and realized its the 25th, but I could have sworn I read that some where. Does that date ring a bell for anyone else?

Best of luck to everyone.

Is it possible to feel like an interview with Fuqua did not go well? I left thinking I'd nailed it and should be admitted, until I thought about it - everyone must have felt that way. The interview was so soft and the interviewer was so friendly that I'm not sure how they use the interview to make difficult decisions.

Do you know when Duke will provide the decision? My interviewer was saying I should get my result 2-3 weeks after the interview.

I just knew I bombed the hell out of it and there was no chance I would get in when I left. But I was admitted R1.
