Got my call around 10:30AM today Eastern Standard Time. Very excited to be joining Team Fuqua.

I live in Durham, NC - only a few minutes away from Duke's campus - so if any other future students will be in town for the first time, I'm happy to show you around or meet up for drinks before class starts next year. Especially for those of you relocating from farther away or with a spouse/family - I grew up in the area so I know the area really well. Can't wait to meet everyone.

are acceptances generally via phone?

also, when do the official emails (whether it be acceptance or rejections) generally come out?

I would assume emails (rejections, waitlists) are sent out around 4 PM in the evening.

Is it safe to assume that all acceptance phone calls are done for today?

I'd assume they are done. I'd expect an email either at 5 or 8 eastern time

No email, I've been waiting anxiously as well. By far the least productive day I've had at work lol!

She mentioned that there will be a lot of emails and the first one will be the letter but nothing yet. I'm guessing they wanted to do all the calls first and now the letters would start.

For anyone that got admitted, did you receive a separate merit scholarship link or pdf in the applicant portal? Didn't receive one so assume I didn't get any awarded but wanted to check before calling the office.

Same here. I have received update on portal with further steps. In admission letter there is nothing mentioned about Scholarship so I am also wondering about it.

Do you guys see anywhere to pay first deposit? For some reason my portal only shows link to pay the second deposit of 1k rather than the first deposit of 3k
