Waitlisted after months of silence, although it's nice to know. Good luck to those still waiting!

UR2 today after 4 months! I wonder what's keeping them from rendering a decision on my app...

Also wait listed today after hearing nothing since mid-September. My email said nothing about being on a priority wait list, so I'm assuming this is a step below that.

Waitlisted. Not really sure how I feel about it (mostly because I'm worried about the fate of my other apps at top schools).

I did but my numbers weren't particularly competitive to begin with at 173 / 3.15.

Also, to those asking notification was sent via email.

I think it's a step up from wait list, essentially they've filled most of their spots, the people on the priority reserve would have got accepted if they had more open spaces so they'll get in before wait listed people

Still UR1 as of 1/10. I applied in December when my LSAT score was much lower and thus didn't get PT. Totally kicking myself for not waiting because I'm worried as hell that I'm going to be hit with a WL even though I have solid numbers for Duke

Applied RD mid-January. This wait is going to be brutal.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
