Duke (Fuqua) 2013 - Calling All Applicants

Hey guys--just got a call from my interviewer yesterday and she is studying abroad for a term. She said about a quarter of the class is studying abroad this term so for those who haven't received calls from their interviewer that could be the reason. Still waiting for the admit package--I think carrier pigeons would be faster at this point.

R2 applicants : Did anyone else receive an email from admissions asking for the undergrad degree certificate ?
I was under the impression that my official transcripts would be sufficient.

I got that mail on Jan 12 stating that my application is in-complete. And they asked for my University degree certificate as my transcript dont shows the date of degree conferred. Immediately I replied that mail with my UG certificate and received a confirmation mail on 15th Jan stating that my application is now ready for review.

Thanks for the information. I did reply with my undergrad certificate but haven't gotten a confirmation email yet

Yup! Happened with as well. Recd. a mail on 18th replied with certificate on 19th & received confirmation on 23rd.

I also received an email on 19th stating that my app is incomplete because french diploma and toefl score is missing. I sent my diploma and contacted ETS to confirm that my score has been sent. ETS gave the confirmation.
Until now, I haven't received any email from fuqua. should I call them to know what is going on?

Those who have received the admission package - is there something in it that I will require right away or everything can be found on the admitted students website and the unofficial guide? I am asking this because I am having my package delivered at my permanent address (1000 kms from where I live). Should I take the pain to get it couriered to me right away or is it something that i can wait to collect in March when I go home?

Appreciate your help.

I dont know if there is some form of non disclosure clause in the package because I see this is your 2nd time of asking this question and still no one is responding even though some have received it

Apologies for the late reply.

There is nothing in particular that you will require right away. You already have the admit student website login. The to-do checklist is already there. You can also accept the decision online. There is one page that tells you how to send your deposit, either through demand draft or wiretransfer. I am not sure whether wiretransfer details are on the website. Rest, you will find everyting on the admit student website. Just make sure that you send the deposit and official transcripts by Feb 27.

Thanks. That was really helpful. Even the wire transfer information is available online. So I think I am good for now.

Looks like people are busy networking with future classmates on other forum

hahahaha...at least you got your question answered. I am still waiting for my package though. After waiting for so long for a decision, I didnt expect to go through another round of waiting agony. It better comes with a scholarship offer

Does everybody get an interview call on Feb 7th for Round 2 or can you get before that as well? And if you dont get the email by the 7th does it mean a ding?

Read the posts a few pages back and you'll find your answers.

Guys, please take 20 min and read through the thread -- all your basic questions have been asked and answered multiple times before.

True. The funny thing is, I think that those that didn't read all pages, you're probably that guy that wrote another school's name in essays. Take your time and do some research.

Fellow admits (EA and RD1), the timelines say that we should have sent in our visa documents by March 8. I guess those documents include proof of funding right? So if you plan on using a loan for the funding, does it mean you should have applied and received a response on the loan before March 8? What is likely to happen if one misses the deadline?

This is a very logistic specific question. I am sure the school will be happy to answer the question for you.
