Please chance an anxious high school junior for Duke ED!

  1. Internship - if it’s full time, that’s great.

  2. Work on essays

  3. Talk to your folks - see if Duke is even in financial range. Look at other schools - no school is more important than your safety. Find out from your folks - do they want $85K a year or $20K - both are possible - and #s in between. This goes back to NPCs.

  4. Visit schools you can’t get to when open

  5. Have fun !!! That’s important

Someone said it b4 - but where you go has less relevance on your future than you do. Whether it’s Duke, Dickinson, Depaul, Depauw, Duquesne or Delaware, your success or failure in life will depend on you!!!

You’ve got a great record and should be proud. A school does not validate or invalidate your accomplishments.

Good luck
