I followed his cycle & happened to have this thread tagged. Harvard and dinged. Their cycles of admits were - a wave the 11 for NYC and the rest (dings) released the 27.

This forum seems to contain a representative sample. I think it would be highly unlikely that no one here would have received a notification by now if acceptances were all already sent out. Also, TLS tends to have an SEO preparation site set up for admits. So, that might key us off...

I know this is redundant info for most people, but don't forget that you won't receive any decision whatsoever from SEO until you upload your law school deposit form/confirmation/etc to your account (under Supporting Documents)

The last second interviews were yesterday so...if the region you're applying to already has most/majority/all with submitted deposits, then you should be hearing back sooner.

It'd be cool to know this week but the deposit deadline is the 28th :/

Though the new director did say that decisions will be made in more of a rolling basis according to deposit submissions

That's what the first interviewer told me and what was in their second-interview e-mail. However, during my second interview I asked and was told that SEO wants to be able to compare those with deposits in a certain region before giving out decisions.

(If it helps, I'm not applying for the DC/NYC which could have decisions on a rolling basis more so than people who picked super regional places like TX/ATL/CA firms)

Congrats to those who got accepted! I'm glad that they are pushing out acceptances fairly early.

(I was on the "let's hear back today" train but it's a hella stressful week so if I'm going to be dinged, let's not do it soon pls)
