If I sent an unconditional LOCI, do you think the withdrawing from other schools part is implied or I do I need to explicitly state that?

My wording: "If admitted, I would unconditionally attend."

Should I send another?

Sounds pretty clear to me.

Congrats, Shellebelle!!! Can only hope to feel your excitement soon!

[Shellbelle]

thanks all!! Hoping there's more where this came from for the rest of you

OMG OMG OMG I GOT IN!!!!!

I was waitlisted last week and now I'm in.

congratulations

did you send them any kind of loci between last week and now? seems kind of strange that they wl'ed you to accept you less than 7 days later.

yes. I sent an unconditional loci that I would attend and withdraw from all other schools & pending applications.

I did this too, and I'm still just WLd.

[autarkh]

So it looks like at least one more day of agony.

[patentThis]

Looks like another just got in, hold --> accept on the northwestern 2013 thread.

[worldpiece17]

Haha- yeah, that would be me. I applied to LLM for Human Rights- got put on hold 3/25, but got accepted today- but it doesn't say anything about HR... hmmm.

Oh well, might just save me another $70k in loans.

[worldpiece17]

Sorry- that last post didn't convey my actual feelings about the recent turn of events-

I GOT IN!!! YYAYAYAYAYAAYYYYY!!

See y'all in August! Or over the summer if anything is planned

Not us, we're not in yet.

(grats though!)

Withdrawn today (wife loved New York). Good luck everyone, and someone should get that weird deferred money!

How is someone getting in off of the waitlist if people haven't even got regular decisions?

[MirandaHobbes]

so, there's been hold --> waitlist and hold --> in and at least one hold--> waitlist --> in. but no, hold --> out yet, right?

[SaintClarence27]

Arrrgh! I'm still just ----->

I really hate to be a pessimist, but after the three or four acceptances coming off the WL and hold list the last few days, I think the rest of us on hold should get ready for a rejection on Friday. At the very least, it'll be nice to be done with it. I realize this is pure speculation, but speculation is how most of us seem to be coping, so to speak, so I figured I'd add my voice. Hopefully most of us are in at another school we'd be happy to attend. What a messed up process.

I went from hold to WL last week and they still haven't bothered to email me to tell me about it. What's going on?

I got in! I had been on hold and got an email from them last night! I can't believe it!

Sometime between 10 and 10:50a EST, my letter stealth switched from Apr 12 - Hold to Apr 29 - Waitlist.

I'm so disappointed. I guess I'll fire off a LOCI and promise to attend and stress my work experience.

I'm sorry Adam I think my rejection is headed my way any minute... Did they send you an email?

Nope, my letter stealth changed. I'd been refreshing every 5-20 minutes, and one time I saw Apr 29 instead of Apr 12.

where are you headed if you don't get in, dreaming?

[dreaming]

Miranda- I'll PM you...too long to explain in this post haha

[MusicNutMeggie]

I got in yesterday! They sent an email at about 2:30...and then financial aid sent one about an hour later that said that all grant and scholarship money had been exhausted. Oh, well. Now it's off to Ithaca to check out Cornell-- this is going to be a tough decision. Good luck to all of you!
