Mine's been complete since 11/5, which was right after my interview (within a day or two)
Ugh...I hope that my interviewer didn't forget to send in the interview until later :cry:

I apologize to all the people waiting a long time in advance but I thought I'd share my dates which basically point to the whole timing of decisions being a bit random. Admitted today.

Submitted 1/4 Complete 1/25

Lol I'm sort of assuming mine did and it didn't just randomly go complete (it doesn't say anywhere on my profile that I ever actually interviewed, just that I'm complete). I think I saw other people on here say they had a date change so that's probably it in your case!

The date the decision letter delivery system says my app was complete is almost 2 months later than when the status checker reported my application was complete (including complete video interview). Is this normal?

I did and from what I've heard from my department (Communication Studies), the law school basically waits until the PhD program makes offers.

Just got hired as a long-term substitute for a public school district where I live. Is this a sufficient reason to send in a new resume even though I submitted in October, interviewed back in November, and (apparently) went complete in January? I figure it might be a nice, not too pushy, way of saying that I'm still interested.

ETA: I'm still waiting on about a dozen schools, and honestly I might blanket them all with a new resume tomorrow since I submitted in October and it's taken forever for me to hear back from most of the schools I applied to.

So this Tuesday marks the 10 week period for everyone who was complete before 12/1. Do we think this is a near certainty that all of us will hear something by Tuesday? The Decision Letter site says allow 8-10 weeks starting 12/1.

Well yeah me too actually, but they said to start counting from 12/1 if you were complete before. I was complete 11/4

Whoops, I read that differently somehow. Fair enough. Similar complete date (11/5, I think?)

No tweet from Johann doesn't bode well for decisions today. Would certainly be nice though. I wouldn't get too excited before next Tuesday.

Spoke too soon...

Johann - Up until today we have only released JD admits. Can't wait any longer. The inevitable will begin today.

That's... foreboding
