DUKE ABSN Fall 2012

Published

Hi all!

Just wanted to start a thread for the people applying to duke for the fall of 2012. I am super excited/nervous to be filling out the application! I know that there are others out there feeling the same way. If anybody is willing to comment I would love to hear from some people who have applied, accepted or denied, or applying right now, or even going to apply in the future. :)

I'm croaking off over here, y'all... I just saw a hawk in my backyard - that's a sign of good luck, right? ;)

I'm going crazy too. I'm baking coconut meringues right now, next up cupcakes and turkey burgers. I should have taken that extra shift at work. It would have at least kept me busy.

mellzie, that sounds so delicious... I am eating chips and quesadillas right now. And checking my portal every two minutes. Aaahhh!! I told myself I wouldn't post again until we heard something but you can see how well that went... :rolleyes:

I'm really hoping tomorrow. I have to work 2:30-11 tomorrow evening and will have no access to email during those times, so I am really hoping before then!

well, it's 9PM here but that's not stopping me from occasionally checking the application website. Guessing it will be Wednesday, but really hoping for tomorrow!

I wonder if M knows that we are all on pins and needles! Maybe someone will think of a good reason to call tomorrow and get some inside info on when/how they will notify us. I'm betting Wednesday or Thursday. Will they only contact those accepted? Wonder what others will hear.....

Oh please lord, not Wednesday or Thursday... my nerves can't take it! I know there was an unexpected delay last year, but in previous years they pretty much found out the day after the committee met. Anybody have a good reason to call the office tomorrow? Haha

I emailed M today and she said decisions will definitely not be made until next week at the earliest :(

So more waiting...

Are you kidding me?? WTH could take so long... why even bother telling us the committee was meeting on the 13th? Ugh.

I know. I haven't gotten a decision from any of my schools and I am getting so anxious!

Yes, the waiting is the worst thing ever! Thanks for checking, though. I may call later this week and see if I can narrow the timeframe down a bit... I wonder what the office has been told to tell us.
