Stanford C/O 2019 Applicants (2015-2016 cycle) Forum

[phasematch]

Congratulations to the new admits! Any chance of a Facebook group count (+pending members)?

248 members, 97 invited.

Thankyou! Rational reaction: I am toast
Hopelessly Hopeful reaction: THERES ~80 SPACES AND ONLY 1 OF ME WOOOOO

how'd you get 80 spaces? i thought there was about 390 admitted every year which would only leave about 45 spaces and that's assuming everyone has a facebook profile

Where do people keep getting this 390 figure from? I'm intrigued! Look at the 2015 ABA report - 433 admits

EDIT: also i'm terrible at maths so who knows if that actually leaves around 80 spaces

I assume the 433 admits include people who were offered admission off the wait-list right? i recall reading from last year's wait list thread that they had to fill about 40 spots from the wait list. if that is correct, we shouldn't be expecting more than 393 offers before the seat deposits are due.

Hi - quick question: I tried to log in to look at my status checker today, but was greeted with this message:

"You have navigated here in error.
Invalid Entry Point. You must enter this site from the law school's website.
Perhaps your session timed out. Please return to your law school's website."

The thing is, I did attempt to access the site from Stanford's website. Anyone else have this issue?

I've had it pop up a few times.

https://aces2.lsac.org/YourStatus/membe ... i%2B0OE%3D should work for Stanford.

They want you to always go through the school's site, but by changing the string after 'guid=' you go to different school's status checkers (for example NYU has a guid=xLWppa13eyY%3D).

Thanks, this worked!

FREEDOMMMMMMMM at last. Good luck to everyone else.

Ding or waitlist? You're not free yet!

Doesn't say on the status checker so I contacted them directly---REJECTION. It was a long shot..but still idk why it took them such a long time--filled me up with false hope. Oddly enough, I am relieved It really is FREEING

Hi all!
(Long time lurker. First time poster...)

Got the call this afternoon from Dean Deal and I'm in! Posted my stats at the bottom of the spreadsheet/ complete date for those who care to know. Best of luck to all those still waiting.

Did you send a LOCI? Huge Congrats, so lucky!

Yes and no. Dean Deal had emailed me asking for updates on employment and activities.
I then threw some continued interest into my reply.

How would you guys phrase the email? (for those who are still waiting

I've heard they only respond to emails written in blood.

i would not send this email. they will respond and say something like thanks for your patience, they hope to send out all decisions by 4/30.

You have to write a letter in blood then throw it into a fire of burning sage while performing a chant at midnight. You'll receive your response on the following morning written on your bathroom mirror.

Haven't all the DLSes been rejections so far?

[Calladriel]

I hope that the SLS admissions committee can see how many times a person logs into his/her status checker every day. I can't think of a better "actions speak louder than words" supplement to my heartfelt, tearstained LOCI.

Also, as I realized this morning, I've had entire relationships run their course in the amount of time SLS has been deliberating whether or not they like me. I think I'm developing a complex.

So much this. Except for I think it's essentially a committee of 1

[jlk411]

the fact that i haven't been rejected yet is giving me absurd amounts of hope

Dear Dean Deal: Let me change myself for you. Tell me what you want and need. I'll do it. Sincerely, Anxiety Incarnate.

I feel like my app is like Neo dodging DLSs and acceptances instead of bullets.

I think erinlily was saying there hadn't been a status update (aka no DLS), but had been rejected already. S/he found out when s/he called the admin office to ask.

I'm pretty sure they were referencing that when you go DLS on the status checker, it doesn't tell you if you're rejected or waitlisted, so you can call and ask for confirmation.

how long between the request and your admittance?

[YCDAACH]

If I am still under review should I accept a LOCI or is that more for people on the wait list.

[WinterComing]

Continued interest is futile.

(Just kidding. I have no idea what you should do. I've been under review for months, and the LOCI I sent a few weeks ago hasn't elicited any movement.)

[Hildegard15]

I'm considering withdrawing in protest of my 6.5 month wait for an answer. Not seriously considering it, obviously, but the thought is there now at the back of my mind...

[crescentstars]

So does anyone think it's still worth it to send in a LOCI this late in the game? Also, how long after going under review would you send one? It's been only about 2.5 months for me, and I know others have been waiting for much longer...
