Required Essays: Answer both essay questions 1. The "Team Fuqua" spirit and community is one of the things that sets The Duke MBA experience apart, and it is a concept that extends beyond the student body to include faculty, staff, and administration. When a new person joins the Admissions Team, we ask that person to share with everyone in the office a list of "25 Random Things About Yourself." As an Admissions team, we already know the new hire's professional and academic background, so learning these "25 Random Things" helps us get to know someone's personality, background, special talents, and more. In this spirit, the Admissions Committee also wants to get to know you - beyond the professional and academic achievements listed in your resume and transcript. You can share with us important life experiences, your likes/dislikes, hobbies, achievements, fun facts, or anything that helps us understand what makes you who you are. Share with us your list of "25 Random Things" about YOU. Please present your response in list form, numbered 1 to 25. Some points may be only a few words, while others may be longer. Your complete list should not exceed 2 pages. 2. When asked by your family, friends, and colleagues why you want to go to Duke, what do you tell them? Share the reasons that are most meaningful to you. Your response to this essay question should be no more than 2 pages in length. Please respond fully and concisely using 1.5 line spacing.

Also, for those looking to rent cars at RDU...i recommend using priceline, i was able to get a standard one (aka not tiny economy/compact) for under 30 (including taxes/fees).

did anyone else notice they have class on Presidents Day (Mon Feb 18)? Is that common? I am an international.

Duke doesn't follow the "traditional" holiday calendar. Don't worry though, the few random holidays you do have class is made up for when you get out for break/graduate earlier than at other schools. Posted from my mobile device

President's Day isn't a big deal here

Does anyone know when Duke Fuqua will be sending another round of interview invites?

Per the website, Round 3's get notified April 10th. I don't think there is another wave of invites for Round 2.

I interviewed on a sat. They didn't let us sit in on a real class, it was a mock class FYI. Not sure if that is the plan for you guys also.

Invited to interview! Anyone knows what is the interview acceptance rate at Fuqua?

that is such a good deal on your hotel, lucky you! I probably should've done some more research before booking the conference center, which now seems to be the most expensive option there is...;/ good luck to you!
