Congrats on the acceptance! I didn't expect them to start rolling out so soon! I applied in September and, according to ISIS, am still classified as "In Progress" with a 3.57 and a 159.

Got a fee waiver and decided it was worth the $12. Submitted and went LSAC Complete today. LSP says Iowa is a "Consider" for me.

Just thought I'd let everyone on here know that I contacted admissions last Friday inquiring when those who applied in September/October might hear back. It was a very friendly ADCOM office, but they were unable to give me any specifics, just saying that it's rolling admissions and could be anytime in the near future or past January.

I think last year decisions were in waves once a month until the end of the cycle. I might be wrong, it's just what I remember.

I just got an email with my hawkid but apparently my password is coming in a different email. Why don't they just send them both at once?

It's weird, but that link isn't even that useful at this point. They actually have another LSAC status checker that you should get info about.

ISIS does blow, but they actually have a typical LSAC type status checker this year.

Wait until they see ICON then :P

I thought the only status checker was through ISIS last year, so it's great that Iowa now offers something more user-friendly.

Basically, all of websites i've used at Iowa are awful

I noticed that the business school's website is much more attractive. I think the law school website needs a redesign...

We're too practical for a shiny website. Give the poor business students the nice website, I mean what else do they have going for them? :mrgreen:

Anyone else hear back from Iowa yet? I'm still "In Progress" under ISIS, and have an "Application Received" status for the other checker.

How long did it take Iowa to send you all your status checkers? I applied last Friday and don't have one yet. I did all my apps last week and Iowa is the only one that hasn't sent me a status checker yet.

I had my status checker ten days after submitting the app. It's probably too soon to be worried.

good luck to everyone! In my guess, more decisions would be made in Dec.

Apparently one person on this board has gotten an acceptance e-mail. I don't exactly know where else to check for acceptance data. It's Friday night, go have a drink and forget about it all until Monday 8)
