No... lol because! As msblaw pointed out, rejections were mailed yesterday. So unless those rejections were mailed via overnight shipping (which would be convenient but extremely unlikely), then us email-less people might have fun news awaiting us in the mail come Tuesday/Wednesday afternoon.

Wait, what?

a) Are these supposed to be the first rejects? I saw a couple on the LSN graph a while back..

b) Doesn't the status update before you get the letter?

b) Doesn't the status update before you get the letter?

a) Looking at LSN, of the 2 rejections I see, one mentioned on this thread that he found out through e-mail when in contact with the admissions office, so essentially that was solicited. All that has been reported through the standard channels have been acceptances. So, since the applicant pool has not yet had the bulk release of rejections yet, that is was mailed yesterday. The other waitlists or whatever on LSN seem to be from confused people regarding the e-mail that went out.

b) Unless the letter is sent via same-day air, the assumption is/was that the status checker will update with the decision that goes out snail mail. Since no one has yet reported that their status checker changed to reflect that they were rejected, we don't know if the status checker is actually reflecting anything but the standard daily "complete" update it has always given. Only way to confirm this would be for someone who has been told they were denied admission to provide some feedback and check theirs to see if it reflects the decision they were informed of yesterday.

Makes sense.

I guess we'll know more next week.

In any case, I'm in for a long wait

Guys. You're reading way too much into the crumps thing. Let it go.

[lemon7]

I went complete 12/15...where's my status checker?

+1

You probably know this: What type of numbers get YPed at any given school? Anything above the 75ths, or astronomically high numbers (175, 3.9X+ type of people)?

THe evidence in this thread would point to the fact that everyone reads far too much into everything. They'll all make great lawyers and gunners.

It really depends on the school. Astronomically high numbers generally are prime for YP but it depends. Last year at UVA, it was basically "if not ED or not in state, then YP." Mich seems to be YPing high lsats this year. We don't know about Penn right now. Those three tend to be the three YPers.

ooooooooooooo the status checker didn't update to anything for me today.

[crumpetsandtea]

I think the consensus is that it updates regularly every day except for Sundays, and holidays I assume.

[EMZE]

I thought it was everyday.

Shit, now I'm "that guy" with the status checker question....

it's okay, I don't think we mention the Sunday exception very much.

Rejected via snail mail. Did not get the email. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I go to Michigan, so the mail was very swift (was probably delivered within 24 hours).

It's okay- didn't really want to stay here anymore anyway haha. Yes, it did. It's still at complete.

[tonguetied]

Edit: wrong place, sorry

Oh wow, I would've thought being a UMich undergrad gave you a leg up. Did you not qualify for the "Wolverines" program?

I have a 3.2 lol. You need a 3.8 for that

[JamMasterJ]

So it looks like we had no movement today other than the solicited e-mail reject.

I'm kind of on pins and needles until I get in. If I don't it's really going to throw a monkey wrench in my plans. Mich is still my top choice!

I totally am in the same boat

Status: We are very sorry to tell you that we are not able to offer you a place in our entering class. A decision letter has been mailed to you at the address shown above.



This just just updated today. Even though it says last updated Jan 14, it updated today because I checked it yesterday. Assuming I will get my rejection letter through snail mail on tuesday


EDIT: UM was always a big reach for me, so no surprise. Did NOT get that email last week, fyi

Sorry to hear it.

Great, now I'm scared to look.

Although I am glad that I don't have to wait for the snail mail to find out...

Edit: Safe for now I suppose. Didn't get the checker until 1/4 though.
