Duke ED Class of 2020 Applicants Discussion Thread

Waiting would probably be more of a distraction than knowing. I guess it depends on the person.

Update: 4 hours of sleep,
Couldn’t eat lunch,
And my teacher had to give me her zen balls because I was stressed during class :slight_smile:

Why do they have to make it at 7 p.m.? Why can’t it be like 12? Keep everybody’s anxiety level down. Unless thats what they’re going for.

@lefty163 I think an aspect of it is in hopes you won’t be in school

By saying 9% Asian, I mean I’m both international and Asian :slight_smile:

Less than 4 hours!!!

Hello guys! Just wanted to step in from the Princeton thread and wish all of you guys good luck! I know how stressful it must be right now to wait for your fate for the next four years to be released. You guys will all do great, regardless of where you end up. :slight_smile:

You guys should be proud of all the work you have put into your applications. The fact that you have applied to Duke is an enormous feat in the first place; it would only be Duke’s loss if any of you guys were not accepted.

In the end, it’s not the school you go to, but what you do during your college career that defines who you are. Duke may help to make this journey easier, but isn’t needed to complete it. The decisions have already been made; what is done is done. Be confident in your application, and know that you will be amazing no matter where you go.

Once again, good luck! :wink:

This is stressful

Anon, I don’t want to shock you, but some people apply to Duke over Princeton because they like Duke better!

Are they posted right at 7 or before or what

supposedly, right at 7pm EST.

Guys, it’ll be okay! Just make sure you’re sitting down when you get your decision. I got mine when I was standing at work and I dropped my phone. Also, you will open immediately to your decision letter. It auto refreshes, or at least on my phone it did.
Just remember this is one step!
They say getting in is the hardest part, but actually the work here is incredible, so keep up your work ethic and get excited!

The decisions are getting uploaded!!

What do you mean?

i am so scared i had like a 1% chance of getting in so it’ll be a miracle if i do

The website is shut down right now so that they can upload them… 37 minutes! ah

Time is counting down. Hoping for the best

15 minutes guys Good luck :slight_smile:

not really too upset if i dont get in; kinda want to see what other schools think of my app since its so damn different
