Were you the guy who had ATR-NY references checked? ATR(DC)/reference check. No change here.

Greetings:
I updated Antitrust finalists for all Antitrust locations a few minutes ago. Based on the number, these appear to be primary candidates so it is possible that additional finalists will be designated later.

Re: DOJ Honors Program 2014-15
So what does that mean? "primary candidates"? Are those the first-round offers? Did they not choose as many finalists as there are spots?

Not sure. I assume that means all first-round offers, since if there weren't enough finalists she would definitely be selecting more down the road, as opposed to "possibly."

Re: DOJ Honors Program 2014-15
Did you have your references checked? Really deflated right now. Spent the last two weeks shifting between convincing myself I had it and convincing myself I had no chance. Had everything lining up the right way. Ambiguous language at a time like this is awful.

I received offers from both ATR(DC) (from the section I had spent a summer with as a SLIP) and ATR(NY). I accepted the offer in NY.

Yes. I'm the guilty one. Realized the mistaken assumption and fixed it 2 seconds later. My apologies...been a long day. So my new "So you're telling me there's a chance..." theory: They coordinated with the field office to identify the people getting dual offers and gave those out first.

One last question if you'll forgive me. Did you do SLIP in a civil section or a criminal section? In the past years the individual civil sections didn't give offers is why I asked.catinthewall wrote:Thanks, all! I'm a lady.Anonymous User wrote:Catinthewall. You sir are a wonderful person.

Not that I know of for references, and I am sure I would have heard. No rejection email, either - might be too early for that, if they are just posting finalists now.

Oh its moving now! I am absolutely tearing my hear out. This was almost as bad as when I was waiting for the LSAT score, finding out whether I passed the bar exam in NY or even getting into college.
I might be bald by Wednesday.
