Has anyone received any further communication on the interview waitlist?


No further communication to me. I'm treating this as a ding, as before. (possibly a WL)

Early application round applications,

If by chance your application results have not gone the way you would have wished them to, we can help!
I am willing to take up 2-3 applications and provide my feedback on what could have gone wrong (led to a ding that is).

You can write to me at contact@mbadecoder.com after you officially hear back from Duke.

btw- this is not a paid service. Its just my little way of helping applicants.

I can't find any option in the Fuqua application to write about participation in extracurricular activities in college. Also, can't see any option to write about academic or professional awards. There is an option only for leadership experience and community involvement. Friends, where did you write the extracurricular activities(participation or prizes) and academic or professional awards?

Just had my interview on 9/27 as it was conducted on Skype. Met with Diane who is involved with admissions for their GEMBA program(Im applying to the EMBA program).

Interview was about 45 minutes long and consisted of the usual questions about my work history, current employer and position responsibilities as well as my goals for the MBA. Found it to be quite enjoyable.

Just heard yesterday from Erika at Duke and was accepted into the EMBA program. Super psyched!

The upcoming decision has really been eating me up (applied EA). I know there's nothing I can do about my app but I can't help wonder what my chances are from a numbers standpoint...

Yeah. I interviewed during the open interview period and it was very conversational--no curveball questions. Just the standard walk through your resume, why MBA, why Fuqua, tell me about a time where you had to compromise to achieve something, etc.

Interview lasted just over an hour from start to finish so I'm hoping that's a good sign...
