Duke Application Checklist

claire10 · 10-16-2009, 03:32 PM

So I've been checking the application checklist pretty much everyday, and today this showed up:

SAT Critical Reading: None on file

SAT Math: None on file

SAT Writing: None on file

ACT Composite: None on file
* Please note: We list the highest score received for individual test components of the SAT. For the ACT, we will display your highest overall Composite score. If you haven't yet sent scores to Duke, please do so as soon as possible. Please allow at least one week for scores to post to your checklist after you release them to Duke. If you sent scores to Duke and have verification from the testing agency that they've been received by Duke and they are not displayed above, you can call our office at 919.684.3214 or e-mail undergrad-admissions@duke.edu with TESTING in the subject line of your e-mail.

This is new.
Does this mean they are going to start updating the checklist soon? Or is my checklist the only one which has not been updated?

Mine has been totally updated with everything I've turned in-Common app, supplement, transcript, and SAT scores.

Oh.. Do you think I should call them because I'm applying ED and nothing is showing up on my checklist even though I finished submitting things several weeks ago?

hilary11 · 10-17-2009, 11:57 AM

Did you submit everything online? And did you get e-mails saying they received the common app and supplement a couple days after? That's what happened to me. If not, then you might want to call.

yeah--i've been having this problem too. i've submitted everything but it all says not received. i emailed admissions, but havent gotten anything back yet.

claire10 · 10-19-2009, 05:37 PM

I did get the emails. I'm going to call them tomorrow. I feel better that someone else's checklist isn't working either though..

daughter · 10-19-2009, 07:07 PM

they e-mailed back and said that the sudden wave of ED applications has prevented them from updating the checklists, and that we shouldn't worry until november.

Thank you! I feel so much better. Good luck

Just wondering, are you guys doing interviews? I don't really want to but I feel like it would be weird to tell the interviewer who calls me that I don't want to do one.

yeah, I have my interview on Friday and I'm really nervous. They do take note if you decline an interview, so I suggest you do it if you get a call. Plus, you have nothing to lose (unless you're really disrespectful haha). Also, question for you all: when I go to change my username and password on the "Edit Profile" link, it takes me to a Discover Duke presentation sign-up site. Confusing? Yes. How can I fix this/did it happen to you too?

hilary11 · 10-19-2009, 09:26 PM

I just checked and I was taken to the correct page.

daughter · 10-19-2009, 10:49 PM

yeah i am doing an interview--i mean, i think it can do nothing but help you!

daughter · 10-19-2009, 10:50 PM

also good luck with your interview, flipped tungsten! you'll have to tell us how it goes

hilary11 · 10-19-2009, 11:00 PM

Yeah, good luck! Hope everything goes well!

daughter, have you been contacted by your alumni interviewer yet?
and flipped tungsten, did your person call or e-mail you?

daughter · 10-19-2009, 11:02 PM

i haven't--i got the email about an interview this morning. hopefully it will come soon :/
