Re: Duke Fuqua and UNC KF
Hi, I have received my admit decision from both Duke and UNC KF. While Duke did not offer me any assistance, UNC is offering me a Fellowship of $30 K per year. I am in a bit of a dilemma right now !

Re: Admission Acceptance
Dear Fuquans,
I have received my offer of admission yesterday. The decision document has a link asking "Click here to accept or decline our offer of admission". I wanted to know if I have until March 22 to complete this step. Please let me know, thank you, Niladri.

Hello,
I applied R1, got admitted today (my first admission offer !). To clarify one of the earlier questions, Duke Fuqua interviews pretty much all admitted candidates, and for R1, all the interview invites were sent on the same date, the final date of interview notification.
Thanks,
Niladri.

I am a prospective applicant for Wharton 2011. The application questions this year do not specifically ask, "why MBA" or "why Wharton?" What will be the best way to include these points in the essays?
Thanks a lot,
Niladri.
