Hi everyone,
I was accepted to Duke!!! I am so happy!
Does anyone else got an answer?

Oh... Are they working over the weekend on the admission...?

Nope. They sent it on Thursday.

when did you send your application and where are you from? im still waiting for their email and im thinking this might be a bad sign as more and more people are gettin accepted...and i got their receipt confirmation since nov.7..does anyone know if they send out rejections and acceptances at the same time or not? people who already are accepted to duke, if you dont mind, kindly tell me your credentials...thank you

Congs Isravd!

I also got accepted. Recieved the email on 16th Dec.

FOr everyone concerned, there is early admissions and then the regular admissions which begins Jan 20. Ask the school.....

Congrats, isradv.

BTW, when did you mail your application? I sent my application on Dec. 2 and received the confirmation of safe receipt on Dec. 4. But, no "complete" comfirmation was received since then...

LL.M

May I check with you whether you indicated that you wished to receive "earlier decision" in response to their receipt confirmation email? Thanks.

LL.M

Thanks isradv. Btw, congrats!! Though an early admission means a very unreasonably early deadline for acceptance, but Duke is a good place to go anyways...

Hi,
From what I understood there isn't any official "early addmision" date, and therefore there wasn't any indication of early decision.

I am looking for the mail I got from Duke, but didn't find it, but I wrote earlier that it was very quick, and took about a week or so.

Duke is one of the quickest among top 14. Lucky ones may start to receive its admissions from late November onwards.

I am in. Received an e-mail today.

Thanks.

Thanks.

I am accepted, too. I think I will accept the offer. However, I would like to get a decision from UPenn and Harvard. Other universities I applied are not that interesting. I have also applied for NYU and Virginia, but I think Duke is the better choice.
Is it possible to withdraw later if you get an offer from Harvard?.
Has anybody got a scholarship from Duke?

I think a withdraw will cost you money... why don't you ask them for more time to decide?

TO ISRADV.
shalom.
HEARTLY CONGRATS !!
dear isradv , C
an u pls. tell me job prospectus after llm from duke,coz the % of NY bar passing of duke uni. is 100% in 2nd attempt,which is highest.
R u planning to practice law in USA or want to work in corporate world.
The salary bracket of J.D. students of duke uni. ranges between 120k to 160k ,can we accept the same for ll.m.?

Hi and Shalom to you to :)
About the job prospects, I don't think it's too high because Duke LLM is general which is a serious disadvantge from my point of view, but as you stated above Duke is a good universirty and maybe with good conections and a bit of luck a foreign llm graduate will find a job in a law firm. I think it depends on alot of things and very individual. About the salary... the answer is yes.
