Anybody accepted by Duke and considering it?

If so, hit me up if you want to talk about Duke. I grew up in London, chose Duke over UChicago, Cornell, Middlebury, and Haverford - and not regretting it.

If you don't want to email me let me just leave you the message that Duke is the most fun top ten school, the best top ten school at sports, and one of the most challenging top ten schools.

Also, we are in the final four of NCAA tournament!

You're at Duke? I didn't know there were any Devils on here.

Where do you go?

Duke.

Sweet.

Do you live on campus?

Why would anyone choose Duke over Cornell ?

OMG, no. Eww! Lol. Now I have another Dookie to mess with on here.... Greivis Vasquez > Jon Scheyer.

I'm also from the UK and got into Duke this year for entry into fall 2010
I know Duke is really famous for basketball, but are other sports well played too? What about rowing?!
I've also got a place in the UK at warwick for economics, but I'm seriously considering going to Duke instead. What are your opinions on that?

Duke is very good at basketball, lacrosse, football, American football (we used to suck but our program is on the rise).

There is a club rowing team, which is very serious. I know a couple people who do it and enjoy it. They go to races like the Head of the Charles etc. There is a lake right near Duke called Lake Jordan where they can practice on the water.

Honestly, unless you can't afford Duke, you got to go to Duke over Warwick. Duke will provide you with a better, more well rounded education than Warwick will. Duke is much better than Warwick, even for economics. I would say that an extremely large minority of Duke grads (maybe 20-30%) go into investment banking. Goldman Sachs is the second highest employer of Duke graduates each year. I have a friend at Warwick studying Econ and he says that he hasnt learned anything all year. The Econ dept at Duke is tough but very, very good.

Man just come for Blue Devil Days and you will see why I am promoting Duke as much as I am.

And congrats for getting in!

Now you're just lying. American football team is good? Are you kidding me? They are consistently ACC bottomfeeders. Duke lacrosse always chokes. And Kyle Singler is just annoying.

In all seriousness, though, Duke is a great school academically. To the person who questioned why you would pick Duke over Cornell: You must be seriously underestimating how good Duke is, academically. They are one of the top schools in the country.

*I feel dirty now. I just complimented Duke haha. I still hate your sports teams!

Thanks for your post - very helpful.
I was just talking to someone about Duke and he was saying that it's virtually impossible to work in the US (being a British citizen) after graduating since it will be very difficult to get a green card (unless you plan to be a doctor). Is this true?! Do you plan to return to the UK after graduating? I thought it would be 'easy' to remain in the US!
