Hi! Do you think I can have a chance if I apply next week since the admission is done on a rolling basis? 

You should definitely give it a shot mate! According to older threads, there were people who applied even on the last day of the deadline and were eventually admitted.

Well, I requested $30,000 and that left me with mixed feelings, as I was hoping for stronger financial support.

Hi! I just finished my interview with Rima Idzelis, it was a nice chat. However, I would like to know if I las not offered an admission during the interview does it mean that I Lost my chance? Also, if thats nor the case, how long is it till I can have an answer?

Hi, does Duke offer a full ride? What is the maximum amount that they offer as scholarship? 

1) I didn't receive an offer after the interview initially, but I eventually gained admission.
So, if you weren't admitted right away, there's no need to worry and it's definitely not a bad sign.
2)Based on previous threads, they typically grant scholarships ranging from 15,000 to 25,000, and they provide a limited quantity of half-tuition scholarships.

Thank you, Michael! I actually have an interview scheduled for next week. I presume that I could be asked a few questions regarding scholarship expectations. Congratulations to you! Hopefully, I make it through too! 

Congratulations! Please could you share your profile? I am trying to manage my expectations. I do need a full funding to be able to attend.

That’s a relief! Thank you! Also, really appreciate the prompt response. 

Well, here are a few things about me!
I am from Greece, graduated in the top 15%, and currently pursuing a master's degree in Banking and Finance Law in my home country. Moreover, I have attended winter courses at The Hague Academy of International Law and summer courses on EU financial regulation at the Academy of European Law.
I have two years of experience as a trainee lawyer, including internships at the central bank and two leading corporate law firms. Additionally, I'm a first-generation student and volunteered for two years, assisting disabled students at my university.
In my letter requesting financial support, I highlighted my proven commitment to public service and my dedicated focus on building a legal career centered around academia and the public interest, with a future goal of pursuing an SJD degree.
Let me know if you need anything else!

Hi all! I was wondering whether if anyone has experience negotiating their scholarship with duke?

Hi everyone! For what particular program did you get your admission?

I believe there is only a general LLM at Duke.
