Who'd you hear from? - Post-December LSAT Applicants Forum

[acrossthepond]

Decision rendered from Pepperdine yesterday. Wish I didn't have to wait for it to come in the mail....

[wakefield]

For those who sent applications out late December/early January. . . how many safeties? Started with five but since I haven't received a single response yet, I'm wondering if I should keep applying until I get my first acceptance.

I've got about 5, too. It's weird to just be waiting around now after being busy for the last several months, so I may apply to a few others just to make myself feel better.

I applied to Vandy late Nov/ early Dec and had my account on hold for the December LSAT score. It still has not gone complete. CHECKED AND MY LSAC REPORT WITH NEW SCORE WAS SENT 12/30!! WTF

Anyone in the same boat?

In at Georgia, apps are complete and under review at Florida, Florida State, Vanderbilt, Notre Dame, Alabama, and Emory.

I applied to Vanderbilt late December, it's still at "Application Recieved 12/27"

[Holly Golightly]

Didn't take the December LSAT, but submitted late (most submitted 12/28, a few more submitted last week) because I was waiting for my LORs until Christmas. Those plus soft factors should be some of my strengths. 3.3 GPA, 172 LSAT. In fact, I still have a few left to submit but I am currently out of money until I get paid at the end of the month. Have applied to 17 schools so far (including a few safeties), complete at most. I check my status checkers about 23890x/day, despite knowing that nothing has changed. I am not a patient enough person for this!

I was in the exact same boat. I emailed them on Monday and in one day they cleared up the issue, updated my status checker, and sent me the "complete" email.

Beatrice, we've got verrrry similar numbers and I only sent out my apps around a week before you. I also didn't take december lsat. The waiting is killing me too now that I'm done!

Applied in early January and still haven't gone complete. I'll probably contact them fairly soon and ask if there's anything missing from my file/why I'm not complete yet.

Yeah I tried to be slick and email them my new score blah blah on 1/12 and this was the reponse:


Thank you for your email and your interest in Vanderbilt University Law School. Once your updated report is processed you will receive an email notifying you’re your file is now complete.

It it seriously turning me into a crazy person! I even have dreams about being accepted/rejected/going to law school. All of my friends keep telling me to chill out, but they just don't understand! haha

I also keep second-guessing myself and thinking that I wish I had done this or that. BLAH!

Decision Made at Loyola Chicago this morning. Should receive in the mail within 10-14 days.

[Nat1018]

Just got my acceptance packet from U of San Diego and U of the Pacific! First 2 acceptances so far.

[SAE]

Apps submitted first week of December. Still nothing (except for my ED school that waited for my score).

[hwstewart]

In at UGA today! Kind of weird they don't inform about scholarships until Feb. I would love to work in ATL so it'll be interesting to run the cost-benefit game b/n Emory + UGA (assuming Emory shows some love )

W&L says that they have reached a decision today and notification is pending. Just called and they said they can't inform on decisions over the phone. Have to wait on snail mail then. I don't understand why some schools (Emory, W&L, etc) don't have online status checking and/or communicate decisions in anything other than snail mail. I want ANSWERS!

When did you submit/ go complete? Thanks! And good luck!

Thanks. Submitted 1/1, received 1/7, complete 1/12.

Heh, I may or may not have accidentally sent my application to Loyola mentioning DePaul, so this should be interesting. I submitted a revised personal statement, so hopefully they didn't even notice or didn't make a big deal of it. I am above GPA median and above 75th percentile for LSAT, so I am hoping for good news.

I took the September LSAT, retook in December, sent most of my apps around mid-November and a few in late December. So far, I'm in at Duke, Emory and University of Minnesota. DR 1/14 at Georgetown. On the other hand, not even complete at NYU.

Hopefully that means I'll hear from them soon since I went complete on 1/13. Haha aw well they might not have even looked at the first one if you mentioned it was revised. I'm sure you'll be fine!

Did you go complete at Emory just a couple of days ago?

Also, a quick question for people you have this timeline (applied in November w/ an LSAT, retook in December) -

If you were complete/under review prior to the December LSAT, do you expect to get a new complete/under review date on your status checker?

I got an email saying I was complete at Emory in mid-December. No communication from them until I got in.

[ornbarn]

finally... complete at NYU today. Application sent 1/4, application received 1/12.

Still haven't gone complete at all of the other schools I applied to on 1/4.

Should I email them? Application submitted 12/29, received 1/12, no complete email today. I guess I'll wait until tomorrow at least; maybe they're just going through names alphabetically or something.
