While I'd love to get an acceptance today, I'd be almost just as fine with the sweet, sweet release of a rejection letter at this point.

Long time "lurker" here! Looking for housing/roommates in NYC for the summer and through the school year. Has anyone found a place and is in need of a roommate, or would anyone like to combine efforts?

I didn't see anything about this...sent in a headshot with a pretty healthy beard too. Did you find anything out yet?

They have a strict policy against facial hair. It's pretty much non-negotiable.

Should I give up hope for today? Or do they notify us if we aren't selected?

Is anyone brave enough to call and ask if more acceptances are expected? I would do it, but I work all day tomorrow

So I heard from a friend of a friend of a friend (sounds ridiculous, but that's the actual chain of information) that apparently there are around 20 or so spots left. I think acceptances should be forthcoming...

When did you hear this? If so that's pretty hopeful

I do wish I could just get my rejection out the way but I understand their priority at this point is placing interns at firms.
Haaaa, never noticed that you can see who's browsing.

Sorry to everyone who was dinged today :(. For those of you who were admitted, I received my firm placement earlier today.
