That means WL/Rejection.
What you should be hoping for is a phone call.

I take my phone with me everywhere and I pray for it to ring lol. And get disappointed when its not a (617) area code. SIGH.
I never received a phone call, just an acceptance packet in the mail

This is news to me. Good news. If I get no phone call and a letter I guess I can still hold out hope before I open the envelope....

Did they ask for your fall grades? Your LSAT seems solid enough.

Just got the call, I am IN!
166, 3.74, UR 1/25

This is definitely my first choice on the east coast, so I am pleased to say the least.

Hello all. I am in Peru for the next few months. I thought I had committed the admitted students user and password to memory, however I cannot get in so I must be wrong. Can someone PM the info?

Its looking more and more like BU might be where I end up and I need to look into seat deposits etc.

Thanks.

Congrat for you acceptance.

How do you know that you were UR on 1/25? When did you apply?

I had received 2 identical emails from BU on the 25th and 27th saying that my file was complete and "ready for review"...I took this to mean that I was under review. I had submitted my app on 1/9.

Yay, congrats!

Also, your scholarship gives me hope because I think we got similar amounts at W&L. I think I'm going to go sit by my mailbox now. I'll probably be disappointed, but a girl can hope.

Yes, she said part of it involved reviewing my need access form - but it wasn't need based, it was like a combination of factors. So get your fin aid forms in asap.

That phone call calmed so much anxiety...

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately that means getting my extremely flaky father to do his taxes...I've been bugging him about it for over a month already. Sigh, I guess I just have to call him again.

So it wasn't need based but they needed your financial information? Well here's to hoping! Again, congratz!

yea, the letter said it was based on academic accomplishments, I believe. But, when she called to readmit she mentioned that need access played a role in when it was sent out.
