Random but I'm finishing my app right now, and I saw that they require a lor from a supervisor if you work full time. I ama substitute teacher so I can't really get that (that and it's late as fuck). I have 3 LORs from professors though, will that be ok? Should I add an addendum explaining why I can't get the required professional LOR?

from my experience this isn't necessary. they understand how sometimes it can be tricky to get a letter from a supervisor if you aren't planning on telling them that you'll be going to law school for several months.moopness wrote:Random but I'm finishing my app right now, and I saw that they require a lor from a supervisor if you work full time.

I would love to know the answer to this question.charlie.black wrote:I don't mind the snail mail so much (old school, kind of neat to get it in paper), but WHY WOULD THEY STAGGER RELEASES? Is the sole purpose to imbue the process with added stress and uncertainty?
Perhaps I am ignorant. Is there any rational explanation? Surely they can submit them all to USPS on the same day (especially considering their late-cyle release)...

In!
Big blue envelope came yesterday, mailed date was the 24th. I hate the Philly postal system. People in California were getting in, so I was sure I didn't get it this round, but then I did.
So if you're still waiting, take heart: your local mail system may just be slow.
PS I wanted to participate in the freakout since we got first word on Friday but I was saving my 100th for something special.

Re: Columbia c/o 2017 Applicants (2013-2014 cycle)
How staggered are they? You mean the fact that some November submitters get their decisions in January, February, and March? I suspect that they aren't sitting on anyone's applications; there are probably still some that are being reviewed or considered and aren't finished before the cutoff. Penn took two months to finish reviewing my app (according to status checker) other people it took a few weeks. Probably depends on your file and who is reviewing. But this is all just guess work, and if you mean that they mailings for the same wave are staggered that's just plain evil.Humbert Humbert wrote:I would love to know the answer to this question.charlie.black wrote:I don't mind the snail mail so much (old school, kind of neat to get it in paper), but WHY WOULD THEY STAGGER RELEASES?

The last part is what they mean. There have been several different post-mark dates on the people admitted this week. The earliest post mark was 1/24 and the latest 1/28 so far.IrishJew wrote:How staggered are they? You mean the fact that some November submitters get their decisions in January, February, and March?

No mail today. Which either means the mailman is coming late or nothing came today.

I believe there was someone several pages back. Since they've made them to CA and WA, I don't see a reason why FL wouldn't have gotten yet (unless the south is still shut down from that inch of snow).anubis1911 wrote:Has anyone received a letter that resides in Florida (Orlando to Miami)?
ETA: oops, 3000th post. Wanted this to be for an acceptance. Oh well!

Figures that if it took to the 30th to get an acceptance sent out the 27th, it's perfectly reasonable to believe that there are acceptances going out the 28th and arriving either Sat or Mon.
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
