theoretically, there is supposed to be a first, second, and final read... if your case is like mine, there will be a first read, and then THREE SUBSEQUENT second reads, each spaced about 10-14 days apart, and you may feel like you are going crazy.
I have gone crazy eons ago.
But theoretically they should deliver a decision to us by April after which we will have put in our deposits at other schools, no?

I've been complete since 1/10 and have yet to receive the login name and password...for a while I just thought they didn't have an online status checker. Think I should call the office? lol

i seriously don't think there is any rhyme or reason to how they sort through the files... compared to some of you on the forum, i'm on the low end--164/3.71, asian, so not URM (i think). i just think it depends on who gets their hands on your file and how they feel about it... then how the second person/group feels about it. it also depends on how many read it... I think the website says it can be one person or a group. gl to everyone still waiting! I'm waiting to hear from ucla and it's really annoying--and there's no status checker! hoping to hear about some money soon...O.o

I want to take the initiative and ask her what the hell is up...but don't want to scare her off. Guess I'll just keep waiting for her to come around.
+1, 167, non-URM, 12/1 complete date. I just want some lovin'!
+2. 167, non-URM, 12/13 complete. ugh.

Does everybody (or a majority) of applicants go under 2nd committee review?

"Decisions typically are mailed beginning in mid-December and concluding around mid-May."
from usc law website
mid-may is definitely past deposit deadlines -_-

From what I read in last year's thread, they sent scholarship out via postal mail, so they may have already forward you one and you haven't received it yet. **FINGERS CROSSED**

From what they told me, schollies should go out this week. If they stick to that, or how long it takes for them to arrive, are entirely separate matters...
