Pondicherry!! Ugh same I’ve been waiting for Columbia. I got accepted in December but I haven’t heard anything about aid. Are you super sure that WWS will most likely release decisions on 11/12 ? Are you basing SIPA’s release date on last year’s result ?
-
Agreeed! I think Thursday is gonna be the day yall. I've booked myself for a quick weekend trip so whatever the outcome, I can reward myself after this excrutiating week...
-
Ugh I hope this doesn't delay them releasing decisions. I'm waiting for them to release scholarship information. Has anyone heard back?
-
Mine has disappeared too! Def dont think it correlates to admissions decisions BUT yes I'm glad its happened because that means we will most likely hear by the end of this week. Happy group stressing yall!
-
Unbearable. I hate that they’ve not communicated anything AT ALL.

Thank you! But Princeton, Harvard decisions are always anxiety inducing haha. Fingers crossed for all of us!
-
Is it usually 8-9 business days or just 8-9 days ?? the anxiety is real omg
-
Nothing at all. Its actually quite weird. No interview requests either. Don't know whats going on. I thought we would hear this week but seems unlikely. We'll probably hear mid week next week! Have any of you applied to the Cambridge MPhil?
-
I'm in too!! 37k tuition fellowship!
-
Thank you!! Yes I'm not too bummed but hoping for good news next week. Fingers crossed for both us on that one! Celebrate today!
-
Dinged ? But SO happy for you @justaname !! congratulations! Is Yale your first choice ?
-
Wait are decisions out ??
-
Yeah I thought we would hear by now. This week has been the worst.
-
I just called Admissions and for those still waiting they said that calls are still being made. A select few have received calls. Official emails will be sent either on Wednesday or Thursday. They will not be calling international students so we will only find out then. Side note - the person who answered was the sweetest person from admissions that I’ve ever spoken to. Took the time to answer all my questions and also chat generally about Duke and life haha! If he’s reflective of the kinda community Duke has, for those who are commuting to Duke, it seems like a great choice For those of us who haven’t heard, fingers crossed!
-
Have official letters been posted on the portal ?
-
I am in the same boat.
-
Decision in and Scholarship info in!
-
Hi @Liamiest, will international students receive calls as well ?
-
When did you hear from Duke ??
-
Sigh.
-
Yup everyone gets it haha. But it means they’re pretty close to sending out results right ?
-
MYFAID email is out!
-
Do we know when admitted students day is ? I went through my decision letters and didn't see anything there.
-
I got both my acceptance and financial aid decision via email. But I am an international student. Looks like domestic students got it in the mail.
