The D: Ask a Question

How can I be sure the Admissions Office received my entire application?

We created the Application Checklist on our Web site specifically so you can keep track of the parts of your application we've received and filed, if you are a first-year applicant. Then, when we've received and processed each part of your application, it will be reflected on your checklist. To see the most current information available, you must log in each time you use the checklist. Please keep in mind that it can take us up to a few weeks to process each application form, especially during January. So don't worry if an item doesn't display as received right away.

After you have made sure that any missing parts of your application have been sent to us -- and you have allowed enough time for us to receive and file them -- you can call our office to make sure we have received the information. Beginning November 15 for Early Decision applicants and February 2 for Regular Decision applicants, you can call our office at 919/684-3214 between 3:00 and 5:00 Eastern time Monday through Friday.

Don't worry, if we are missing any part of your application, we will notify you by November 15 if you're an Early Decision applicant and February 15 if you're a Regular Decision applicant.
