jchang436 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 You will need to contact Wendy in regards to the Facebook page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pabound2016 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 I also noticed that once they verify all that needs to be submitted (letter of intent, security deposit, etc.), you can go back to that webpage, and there will be a message inviting you to the fb group. Congrats on your acceptance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jchang436 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Oh yeah...I forgot about that! Yes, a message thread does appear for the FB page after you have completed everything. I concur with pabound2016! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtnpa Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Essentially only if your state considers the speeding tickets misdemeanors. If you simply paid the fined through traffic court, it doesn't count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pabound2016 Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 I just stayed in the cautious side and stated the only two tickets I've ever gotten in my driving history-speeding ticket (+9mph) and parking in a no parking zone. I didn't see any harm in including them. I'm sure you'll be fine. I've seen many people on here post their experiences including speeding violations and enter PA school just fine.

nodbran Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 So while I wait to contact Wendy on Monday, did anybody ever get an offical word on the whole speeding ticket business? My gut is to err on the side of caution and just explain my speeding tickets. Although I cant remember the dates I got them, or the years for that matter. They all were "taken care" of by traffic school too. Greg, I contacted Wendy about this earlier in the week (maybe Tuesday). I specifically asked if we are supposed to select "yes" for "convictions", even if it is only for speeding tickets. She responded "Yes, that is correct". Hope that helps clarify. -Brandon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nodbran Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Anyone else here have kids? -Greg I do have a son, and that's actually something I asked about during my interview day. A faculty member shared that she also had a very young child while she was in PA school and that it just takes a lot of pre-planning to make it manageable. Hopefully we can get connected with some good resources in Durham for a couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLastStone Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Congrats to everyone that got in! I really want to get into Duke's program. Could y'all tell me what y'all's GPA and HCE was and stuff like that? I want to make myself as competitive as possible for this. I have a couple of years before I graduate from UNCC with my bachelors, but I'm 26 and choosing this over med school since I'm older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The help desk said my student id isn't what I need, and they should give me a net id I paid my fee and finished the paperwork this morning :) Hey, Trying to make payment but I have no idea what my Student ID or Student Unique ID is to login for payment. I was just accepted yesterday...am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SACH86 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Hi guys! I interviewed 11/30, and I got in! I still can't believe it though! Just finished my paper work and payment! As for all of the talk about the convictions/crime, I don't have speeding tickets or reckless driving charges but I have been in two minor fender benders ( one of which was my fault) , so I contacted Wendy directly she told me to just say "no". Just wanted to share that information in case anyone else is in my boat. I think the best thing to do is just ask Wendy, she had her staff are very helpful and respond promptly.

Congrats and welcome! If you haven't done so already: Don't forget to send your payment receipt/Confirmation to paadmission@mc.duke.edu Then you'll get an e-mail from Wendy within 24hours (at least thats how long it took for me) welcoming you to the class and providing a link to the Facebook group. One of the admins will then accept your request to be added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
