Offers received before OCI

Post by Anonymous User » Mon Aug 18, 2014 11:59 pm

Does the 14 day and 28 day countdown start on the day of the offer or the day our school's oci starts? our OCS says that it starts on the first day of our OCI but I'm not able to find the exact phrasing. Please help me :/

Thanks everyone!

That's what I thought but my OCS is telling me something different... so I'm confused :/ http://www.nalp.org/fulltextofnalpprinc ... dstandards -> I see here that it's 14 days and 28 days from the offer, and I just wanted to make sure that I'm looking at the right place for that kind of detail.

Thanks again for the quick response!

Our cso told us the time period started at the beginning of OCI for offers made over the summer like Quinn offers.

In practice, most large firms that give pre-OCI offers will start the clock the first day of your OCI or the day they visit your school's OCI. But if they didn't tell you that, you can't assume it's the case. I'd just ask.

Why don't you just ask the firm considering that NALP is entirely voluntary and no one has to follow their rules
