Literally checking my email every few seconds...waiting for this email is on par with waiting for LSAT scores to be released.

I'm not sure what's worse: a ding or no update whatsoever. Hm.

No update. A ding hurts but you accept it and move forward. I think waiting is worse because you having it hanging over your head.

Maybe those who didn't get dinged are going to get a "keep waiting" email tomorrow or on Thursday.

Pure speculation, but gtown seems to do full waves rather than gradually leaking out decisions like NW. I think everyone not dinged today will survive to some next round or get an acceptance.

I dont remember reading hat they denied anyone last year so it seems this year theyre doing things differently. But youre right about the wave. We've only seen waves up to this point.

No change.

I imagine GULC won't admit people who want biglaw since those people can't do EIW and are therefore "riskier" to take. After all, the school doesn't want transfers contributing to its unemployment stats. My guess is you MAY have a shot of getting in if you mentioned in your app that you want PI or govt.

Then again, I don't know what the bloody hell they're thinking- I wrote a LOCI, sent in another LOR, visited the school, sent an updated resume etc. and still got dinged. I was hoping I'd get accepted early July in that small wave but oh well. Good luck to the rest of you. Just be wary of attending without EIW.

I'm predicting "small group" e-mails, then they'll accept X number of people who respond saying theyre still interested.

Maybe the time spent waiting is better spent figuring out how to win the lottery.
