In via ASW trick! This is in my top 2 with Berkeley if the money is right. (So probably not gonna happen, but hopefully).

GULC and Berkeley both seem to match scholarships rather than offer big money, so hopefully you have a third offer to negotiate with...

Hopefully. I submitted all of my applications right before Christmas so I haven't heard much back yet. I don't want to do big law so I won't be heartbroken if I can't afford T14. My floor at the moment is a full tuition scholarship for WUSTL and I'll be content if that's where I end up

Berkeley technically ended their scholarship matching program this cycle

Anybody else doing the group interview in Boston this coming Friday?

Ahhhh I'm in Boston area but wasn't invited. =( Trying not to take it as too bad a sign but certainly can't be a good thing. Do you mind my asking when you submitted?

Ah man, I applied around that same time (maybe a week later) so I expect I'd probably be in this group if I were going to be interviewed. My numbers are low so I'm not surprised, and it's probably good to temper my wild hopes a bit.

Anyway, good luck to you! I've heard the group interview is a lot of fun. I'm sure you'll nail it!

I haven't received any interview requests from Gtown... Getting kinda worried

Same. Applied 12/22 and haven't heard anything. URM with average numbers (between 25-50% for both) so I'm worried it might be a sign of a waitlist coming....

I applied earlier in December with competitive numbers and they haven't touched my application yet. I can tell because I submitted a video.

Georgetown Optional essay video. I did one too and it hasn't been watched yet either. Although I did apply 1-16.

In via ASW I think? It sent me a username and password but then that combo didn't work?

You're in! It takes 1-3 days for the username/password to start working.

[wildquest8200]

has anybody gotten in via letter without the asw trick working beforehand?

I got in without interview. Worry not.

[doneonedone]

I had my group interview on 1/9, so it's been more than three weeks and I still haven't heard anything. The ASW trick isn't working for me (So I'm assuming ive been dinged) but I also haven't been contacted with a rejection, WL, or anything yet. Has anybody else experienced this or does anyone know what I should expect? I kinda figured they would let me know as soon as i got rejected

My Lsat's median and 25th < gpa < 50th

Dean Cornblatt said we should hear back in around two weeks.... which is why im losing my mind now

[cml731]

Did anyone else's recommender get an email thanking them? Is this typically a good sign, bad sign, or just something that happens? I only applied a week ago so I can't imagine there's already a decision made. My recommender was an alum so idk if that matters.

Hmm, that might be awkward if they didn't admit you.

One of my recommenders got this email as well. It seems to fall into the "something that happens" category based on another thread I found (copied below). Someone on the thread had a similar experience and was subsequently accepted, so I assume it's not an entirely bad sign (unless things have changed).

Has anyone had a recommender receive this email and subsequently been denied / WL / accepted? I guess that would be the way to confirm if it's just something that happens.

[BostonOrBust]

I've started to imagine a scenario in which the admissions office tracks how many times we try the ASW trick and takes cruel joy in delaying a decision for one additional day per login.

Like, not really, but.....
