Mid May? Are you sure about that? Not only is that post decision release, it’s post when student replies to colleges are due. One would think the receipt of a scholarship would be a major factor in favor of accepting an offer of admission.
Yes, this is a major change this year. Taken straight from the Duke website: “If you are selected as a finalist for a merit scholarship, you will be notified via email from this office in early May. Finalists will then interview with scholarship selection committees and merit scholarships will be awarded no later than mid June.”

Can anyone access their checklist
Yes. I do

same
Yes. You are correct but financial checklist is there.
Update – Message in Portal:
ADMISSION DECISION NOTIFICATION
We plan to release admission decisions to Regular Decision candidates by Friday, March 29.
Email instructions will be sent several days in advance.

BY is the operative word. Wonder if it will be sooner?
Crimson Education posted March 19 as the expected date, but I’m not convinced that’s right. Duke typically gives a few days notice and March 19 is not even a day at this point. I think the email Duke sends will give a specific time. That’s how it worked with ED.
I feel like that was a really unfortunate typo and was intended to say 29. I think it’s coming 28th though.

I tend to agree (typo). It could be this Friday, but I don’t see it happening any earlier.
If your financial aid checklist is updated or same?
I wonder if anyone’s financial portal is being updated.
Checklist is gone. Financial is the same.
Does everyone have the thing that says “ Please include your name and Financial Aid ID: xxxxxxx with all communications.”
It has been there from beginning i guess , no?
I guess I never realized lol
