Well she didn't say by the end of the business week. Maybe they are going to surprise people on a Saturday!

Or maybe all of the offers were to non-TLS and non-LSN people...

I'm guessing non-TLS/non-LSN. I'm also pretty sure they only offered like 10 people off the WL. Going back through the class threads, the last admission director was really active on TLS, and would update like "10 offers going out today", "6 offers going out today", etc etc.

A month or so ago Jenny Carroll made a post in one of these UIUC threads talking about how she was going to become heavily involved on TLS since the cycle was winding down. I think she answered one question about student fees and one question about football tickets (priorities, people) and never posted again. The least she could do is give some kind of update in this thread.

Waitlisted too. I opted out of Indiana with hopes of UIUC or maybe Emory. UIUC is the one I want to go to though - it was my UG institution as well. Fingers crossed. Hope we hear some news soon!

Opted out of IU? Thats a great school. Where's your fallback if you dont get in Illinois or Emory?

Take a year off and give the LSAT again. Have already registered for October actually. I've already begun studying and significantly improved. I plan on staying in Chicago, and so it just seemed like the best option was to go to a school in Illinois (unless it's like top ten school which my LSAT score at the time gave me no chance of getting into).

I see, I'm surprised you wouldn't consider IU or ND, but best of luck to you with waitlist and retake!

It looks like admissions might be waiting for the June LSAT to make decisions off waitlist...

Is anyone taking the Oct 2012 LSAT exam from here?

Maybe since the scores came out just last week there still waiting to receive them and evaluate. If I had to guess I'd say they may take a few people off, but doesn't look like very many.

Schools generally receive scores before test takers do, I think. Not by much though.

Bold move, but I guess I didn't like UI's campus very much. Rare occasion someone turns down the better ranked school. Good luck.

Primary reason was because job prospect as a UI graduate versus UIUC graduate was not as well placed in Chicago as UIUC. I know, huge risk. But it's fine. I hope UIUC works out, but if not, not much I could do but try again next year.

Has anybody gotten a response on a computer budget increase request?
