<p>What am i going to do over the weekend?!</p>
<p>@eme1117
It may depend on region/connection or anything else. It really won’t matter when you get the e-mail, don’t worry about it!! </p>
<p>this weekend should be nerve wrecking!</p>
<p>dont worry eme1117, it just means you get rejected…</p>
<p>HAHA JK, dont worry, EVERYONE gets the email who applied ED regardless of tab/no tab nonsense lol</p>
<p>haha LImaxduke</p>
<p>it’s always good to throw in some humour when people are stressed
keeps thing light 
considering we should all probably ease up a bit</p>
<p>haha thanks. no i just got it. it’s weird how relieving it is to get an e-mail even though you already know what it’s going to say. we’ve been waiting for a while now</p>
<p>So considering how we know the date and have received the email notifying of us of the time and place on the site, there is absolutely no way disscussion on this thread can still serve any purpose (except possibly adding to the monumental amount of apprehension)…
But I will still post anyway. <em>facepalm</em></p>
<p>^ Yep. All this will do is add to my stress and remind me of how big tuesday is. But im still going to check it everyday :)</p>
<p>I’m guessing they sent the email out alphabetically, because that’s probably how we are sorted in their database/contact list.</p>
<p>5 days 22 hours 3 minutes…</p>
<p>when i checked my email and saw the email from Duke i felt like my heart stopped beating for a few seconds…</p>
<p>what am i going to do on tuesday when the real decision letter comes!!! i think im gonna pass out…</p>
<p>im definitely passing out…i might have to take some xanax or other anti anxiety meds…my hand will be shaking</p>
<p>OMG i want to be a BLUE DEVIL</p>
<p>Although I was REALLY hoping to find out this week, I’m very relieved that the date is at least set in stone now. My school’s Christmas dance is on Thursday the 17th. My plan? If I get into Duke, get trashed to celebrate. If I don’t get in, get trashed to have an uplifting night.</p>
<p>I want to be able to wear my Duke t-shirt the next day to school!!</p>
<p>^Same! My school has a dress code but I’ll wear it Wednesday after school :)</p>
<p>Okay guys: I just want to make sure that everyone got the same email. Like does this signify anything or did everyone get this…
Since we deliver our decision letters only to the applicants themselves, we expect that only the applicant will be checking his or her decision online. If you decide to check your decision online, we strongly encourage you to do so in the privacy of your own home, not at school. We believe your decision is a private matter, and for many reasons we have found it’s best for applicants to be away from friends and classmates when they check their decisions. </p>
<p>AH IM FREAKING OUT. IS THIS NORMAL???</p>
<p>my friend bought me a duke shirt and she said if i got in i could have it and if i didnt i could burn it</p>
<p>No I got that same thing in mine too.</p>
<p>Yeah same. I’m pretty sure everyone’s is the exact same.</p>
<p>@welovefood</p>
<p>yes you’re freaking out. there’s nothing you can do; you just have to wait.</p>
