I didn't realize it was done in previous years... for some reason I thought this was the first year.
Got any LSN references? I can look myself, obviously, just wanted to see if you have any that you know of. Thanks!
I found this info from a tls thread,
http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 2&start=25 :
This information was distributed directly from Georgetown:
Admissions Decisions for Interviewed Applicants for 2008:
39% put on Preferred Waitlist
37% Admitted
7% Denied
17% General Waitlist
useful, no?

I applied PT and got the interview email, but I withdrew like 5 days ago. I let them know that by replying to that email.

I just changed to under review. Sent app in 11/12, complete same or next day. I'm a high lsat splitter, as seems to be the trend. Anyone in the 3.4 neighborhood getting interview requests? I'm not the biggest fan of phone interviews...

I thought this was a humorous closing to an admissions e-mail.
By humorous you mean, of course, awesome.

By the way, any other October "completes" still waiting to go under review? I'm getting mildly concerned.

I'm another Under Review 10/28 updated to Under Review 11/19 but I'm worried about the no interview. I'm ED for both PT and FT and have very borderline numbers (high 160s 3.5), but wrote an awesome why gtown essay. do you guys think that at this stage in the process no interview = first round of rejections??

I was under review 11/18, then again 11/19. From what I've heard in this thread, it means that you went from under review to under final review, and you should get a decision soon.

Most people who have been accepted so far (including me) were not interviewed, so I don't see why that would indicate a rejection.

Changed to under review 11/19 today from under review 10/20. This is for the part time program. Now I'm REALLY nervous, I would have been thrilled to see this status change a few weeks ago, but considering rejections may start going out night week...

The above happened to me as well (was complete in October, then under review date changed from 10/28 to 11/18 and then again today). I hope it's ok news!
PS: Yay for my first post!

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
