We will begin the visa process in early April closer to the decision deadline of April 15. You can start to take a look at the requirements for securing your visa here: https://memp.pratt.duke.edu/apply/admitted/visa-information

We also recommend that you attend the visa services live Q&A next week to learn more! RSVP here: https://applygp.duke.edu/register/Visa2019

Transcripts -- if you've completed your degree already, you should send your transcript in either with your visa documents or when you decide to enroll. If your school offers official electronic transcripts, we prefer those.

If you are finishing your degree in the coming months, you must send your transcript once you finish. If you receive a provisional transcript, we need that provisional and final once it is produced by your college.

Durham is pretty cool. I lived in Boston and find that Durham/Raleigh/Chapel Hill has everything with better weather and cost of living. See more here: https://www.discoverdurham.com/
