    Duke

    Are they done with decisions? I still have not received any info via email or the ApplyYourself website.

    Anyone know if this is good or bad?

    Weird, they rejected me via the online application earlier this week. Very quick turn around.

    Yeah, I know I am surprised too. I received an official mail offer today though ... I have e-mailed them to clear it up, but I am assuming the paper letter takes precedence over online application. In any case, it's not awfully spectacular, I get a tuition waiver but no stipend. It says I am on the waitlist, but they can't guarantee I'll get any either this year or consequent years :/
    No more admissions decisions ... was fun while it lasted, but now it's to make up my mind.

    They are playing with our feelings... we already accepted and grieved the Duke's rejection, and now this! It's not fair!!

    Well at least it wasn't the opposite.. You get accepted and then, oops sorry we meant to reject you. Hope you didn't get excited or anything

    What if they sent wrong online letters? What if we, the rejected ones, are actually the accepted ones? :P

    They told me that the department has sent a decision letter out yesterday. However, I heard nothing from Duke via e-mail or website. It's weird!
