It's been 9 weeks status post submitting. Should I email the program and follow up? The email stated it would take at least 6 weeks and not to contact them until December 1 if you've not heard from them by then. But I hear ya: it's been over 14 weeks and I haven't heard from them either. Hang in there! There's definitely hope. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to mentally prepare a bit before next week! They both have a set of questions they ask. Maybe have a few stories ready to share and reflect on your PCE to bring that to light 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to mentally prepare a bit before next week! It was, as many students and faculty say, very conversational. They do a lot to put you at ease and connect you to other applicants. I wasn't sure I wanted to be in the mingle room on Zoom but I'm glad I joined as it made it feel more of a connected experience. Good luck! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isvian Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Hi everyone, I submitted CASPA in May, completed supplemental in June, interviewed 9/13, was waitlisted and received an acceptance email on 10/12. I accepted. Just wanted to share that waitlist is moving even during the interview cycle. Also, is there a groupchat of accepted students…? 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there's always that. Yeah, I submitted late (8/9 fully complete) and am nervous since it’s been 10+ weeks and nothing. I’m a very low GPA applicant with an upward trend and a (subjectively) good app otherwise. I’m not expecting anything but not hearing back has me hoping I’m still in the running somehow. Fingers crossed for us! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA2834 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Does anyone know how many people have been accepted? I feel like there haven't been enough acceptances to be done with interview invitations by the end of October, but I could totally be wrong! What do you guys think?

When I interviewed they said they accept 20 per interview week. And I think they’ve done 2 rounds? So it shouldddddd only be like half full so far. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
app2223 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 (edited) If they’re doing 4 rounds like previous years then there’s 2 more left. Looks like they do one every 3 weeks. Mid November should be the last one Edited October 19, 2022 by app2223 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes me slightly more comfortable, but not much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one person in the forum has gotten a rejection, presumably without an interview (they didn't clarify). But it seems like they're likely to start rejecting once their cohort is full.

But i wouldnt be surprised if theyre building an interview waitlist like they've been doing previous years. i honestly dont know but last years thread seems to correlate with this years pretty well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering if a few of you, that were either accepted or denied, could share your stats (GRE, GPA, PCE, shadowing, major of study, etc). I'm trying to get an idea of if I'd have a good chance of acceptance. Thanks in advance 4.5 GPA, 345 GRE, 90K PCE, and biology. jk, 3.6, 300, 17K PCE and still biology. Duke really does seem to pick a mix of candidates though, not as stats focused. My interview group was super diverse in life experiences and I think that’s more so what they’re looking for. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
