I interviewed on 11/20 and went to decision on 12/1, so if you assume they were off on Thursday and Friday of Thanksgiving week, that's 4-5 business days.

Did you get an email saying you went to decision, or did you just check the status checker?

I got a decision the day after my interview, but my application had been complete since October, so I'm guessing they were just holding my app until interview to make sure I wasn't a loony.

Complete 11/19. Just interviewed today, and I really enjoyed it. I'm starting to think Vanderbilt may be the place for me. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for that acceptance.

I have got to stop checking this thread. It is not good for my blood pressure when I see someone had a decision mailed then I rush to check VULS.

hahaha +1 and some other threads as well...whenever I see someone go to decision or say they've received mail, I automatically check my email or run to the student center to check my mail.

I'm happy for those who have gone to decision, but when I see that empty box, I get a smidge sad for myself.

But still, congrats Trucker- it can only be a good decision! :D

I went complete on 10/26 and interviewed 11/24. I e-mailed a couple days later to thank the interviewer and she basically tipped me off saying "I think you will do really well at Vandy."

Vandy is one of my top choices, depending on scholarships

I went complete on 11/19 and interviewed yesterday. I am hoping for a decision before the end of the month, but it seems mid january is more likely :(

My interviewer contacted me on 11/23 asking me to contact him. I have emailed him and left a message with his secretary since then. I still have not heard from him. Any ideas how to proceed?

Trucker, I have seen you on a bunch of the other threads. I just checked your LSN profile - any reason you applied so broadly (e.g. Baylor, W&L, etc.) with such incredible numbers?

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

If people are looking for things to click, Vandy's JETLaw blog has been up and running for awhile. Every now and then they get a massive number of hits but for the most part it just shows what topics people like to research (and how well people write). Any complaints let me know and I will make fun of my roommate.

Had the same problem. I emailed the admissions office and they took care of it, they are very responsive. Just email them and say you responded your your interviewer's email and have not heard anything back for over 2 weeks, they will take care of it.
