Dec. app, haven't heard anything. My best guess is that they're either really behind or they're holding off on ppl till the scholly deadline passes.

Yeah, I applied in, like, 1993 or something and I am still waiting. I wish they had a status checker so I could check twice a day.

I'm in the same boat, and I agree, it's very obnoxious. At least one school I'm considering has a deposit deadline coming up within two weeks. Here's hoping that NYU would at least have the decency to reject me by then.

Same here. Applied mid-Oct with what I thought were competitive numbers (multiple LSAT scores though).

I'm a little concerned, because the LSAC UGPA/LSAT calculator said that I had like 95% chance of getting in...

Haven't heard either and I have 176 for LSAT and pretty high for GPA. In at CLS but nothing from NYU. Rather strange. I guess this also means no merit money at all?

Deadline for scholarships is tomorrow unless you got an extension (which I doubt pretty much anyone who doesn't read TLS requested), so most scholarship people will be depositing or withdrawing tomorrow. By extension, that means a bunch of decisions next week.

Applied in mid-October, and haven't heard a peep. I'm pretty resigned to a rejection, but I would LOVE an acceptance. I got into Chicago, which is pretty sweet, but NYU offers me so much more. It is close to my home, so I could commute and avoid paying for housing. This would make it so I could attend at sticker price without going quite as much into debt. Plus, my girlfriend works in NYC so I would rather stay there than go to Chicago. Everything would work out so damn well for me if they let me in. Hope it happens, though I wouldn't put any money on it.

I mean, I have no special love for them outside of their awesome city, which is quickly being offset by them making me wait roughly half a year to hear something back.

Yep. Applied in mid November. Sent a why statement in January and a LOCI about 3 weeks ago. Still nothing.

Complete since December. I'm guessing a waitlist or rejection will be in the mail sometime before June 2013.

Applied in mid-November. In mid-January the sent me an email saying they'd begun their preliminary review of my application and requesting my Fall 2009 grades. I not only sent the grades, but I sent a why letter and a LOCI. Still haven't heard a damn thing.

this is so weird, I got an answer 2 weeks after being complete (applied in Jan) and I didn't have a perfect LSAT by any means. (not automatic reject either)

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
