As a result, navigating a career requires you to be adaptable. Should the short-term goals that you provided above not materialize what alternative directions have you considered? 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.

I wonder what the admission rate is for Invited/Interviewed Round 3 candidates. 100%? ::wishful thinking:: On the day I interviewed there were only 3 of us interviewing that day. Will they be calling all admits a few days before May 10? Longest week ever... ::sigh::

Well, you will be competing against all the waitlisted candidates. I don't think we ever found out about the admission rate. I am guessing its around 50%. Good Luck.

As for calls, no one knows... EA and R1 there were no calls, R2, decision day was on a Monday, and they called everyone on the Friday before (also updated status online too). So, last round was only 1 business day before to scheduled decision day... so who knows? Good luck, I'll start worrying on Wednesday, and once we see the first person get a call, expect everything to move quickly

So if I applied in R3 and haven't received an invitation I can certainly assume that it will be a big thanks for participating

I dont think that's 100% the case. Most likely, but there is a chance you could be WLed and asked to interview in the coming months. It's definitely worth checking your status on friday.

But as an international applicant I think that is less probable. Anyways I will certainly check my status and hope for the best. And by the way I am sick of the wait lists. Good luck.

Has anyone who applied Round 3 (and interviewed) gotten any sort of an update? I know last round there were some calls prior to the deadline.

Applied and interviewed R3, nothing yet. I'm on the edge of my seat this week and trying to distract myself as much as possible!

Did interview 10 days ago. Nothing yet. Posted from my mobile device

In round 2, we got decision on Friday, when the notification date was the following Monday. Since the notification date is already on Friday this time, I doubt anyone will hear anything earlier - they can always change things up again, though.
