Here's how it seems to me so far based on feedback from this board:

1. All Docs Received
2a. Under Review, Decision Pending
2b. Under Review by Committee, Decision pending
3a. Reviewed by Committee, Decision Pending (our assumption is this is WL/Hold)
3b. Decision in Transit (our assumption is admittance, but as we approach march/april, the chances of this also being other decisions increases as they will eventually have to send out the other decisions)
im just at "Under review by committe"........no decision pending after...uh oh :cry:

Also, I am also under their 25% for GPA and at their median for LSAT.

It seems like most of us who went blank the other day and are now under review definitely have similar numbers.

my bad, I'm not sure if under review by committee also had decision pending at the end. I just know there's definitely "under review; decision pending" and there's definitely a different one that says "under review by committee".

so you had under review by committee before you had under review decision pending?

No other way around.

For me it was: All Docs Received -> Blank -> Under Review; Decision Pending

I am hoping that the softs get me through as well. I am interning at the law school right now, so it would really suck if they reject me. Good luck to you!

I think that it might be Einsteins. They always have mine buttered for me when I get into the office. :lol:

All documents received. Does anyone know if "under review by committee" is good/bad/indifferent to "under review - decision pending?"

I don't think so, but I wasn't checking my status checker every day so who knows? I had some problems going complete because I had to clear up some C&F issues that I answered yes to on the application and it took awhile to get the proper paperwork in order. Nothing serious at all that would have me worried about having an effect on my application but they needed "official" documentation. Finally went complete a couple of weeks ago. I have some family in FL so an acceptance here would be a big deal for me.

If you were like me, (I'm also in the group that went "under review by committee" today), I wasnt in the group of people who when blank last week. All last week I was still "All documents recieved"

Interesting, so last week a group of us went blank and then "Under Review; Decision Pending".

This week, a group of us went from "All Docs Received" to "Under Review by Committee".


Maybe not everyone gets reviewed by the committee?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
