I know each school is different, but I thought BC had an "Under Review" status. Have others seen an Under Review status, or does the date just change? Thanks everyone!
I had two complete dates 12/17 and 2/12 and went under review 2/21
Thanks! Based on the other conversations, I thought there was an under review stage. Good luck and hope you hear soon!

No idea what BC is up to this round. I was dinged and above 75th LSAT. Good luck, but I got an email rejection before the status checker updated to denied.

your status checker showed "denied"? mine says "decision rendered". so maybe its a good sign?.

I guess i'm getting waitlisted. by far whoever got in saw "accepted" on the status checker page.

oh well

I got accepted and my status checker just says "decision rendered" with no mention of acceptance. I did receive an admit email a few hours after the 'decision rendered' appeared. My LSAT was ~25% with GPA below 25%, but strong softs.

"Decision Rendered" 2/24.

Above Median LSAT, <25% international GPA, strong W/E.

Still awaiting an email. Currently feel like vomiting.

Is not having the deposit amount showing typically a bad sign? Mine are still zeroed out....

I also fully acknowledge that I'm an obsessed wreck right now. BC is my top choice and I've been accepted to higher ranked schools with scholarship offers so I'm 100% on edge right now.

I was accepted back in January and my deposit amounts still don't show on my status checker. I would just go about your normal day because it took me a few hours to get the email.

First complete date was 12/21. Then a long span of nothing until 2/14, then "under review" on 2/21, "decision rendered" 2/24. Email this morning. So it was a long, brutal span of inactivity followed by a flurry.

Does anyone know if the BC Public Service Scholarship can be applied for in later years? I know that recipients must reapply each year, but have you missed the boat completely if you didn't apply as a 0L? I missed the Feb. 1st priority deadline and am planning on sending in a late application, but am curious about my options if I don't receive it this year.

How did y'all receive your scholarship info? Email or letter or what? My admission packet didn't have anything.

I received an email today saying that scholarship offers start going out at the end of January and continue to do so on a rolling basis. So the sense that I get is, depending on when you got accepted it might be perfectly normal for the scholly info to not be in the welcome packet.

I was admitted right at the end of January. Hm.

It may not mean anything. Most of the schools that have offered me scholarships sent the scholarship offer after I had already received the acceptance letter. What we really need is feedback from someone who has already received a scholly from BC so we can get a sense for how they do business.
