Does the checker text change to under review or does it just stay at app complete until you get decision made? I've had application complete since 11/1 but date has changed a few times.

I believe it stays as "app complete" until a decision has been made.MikkelVilla wrote:Does the checker text change to under review or does it just stay at app complete until you get decision made? I've had application complete since 11/1 but date has changed a few times.

Just got an email encouraging me to submit a Why NDLS essay. Was well over both 75ths, and didn't include any of the optional essays with my initial submission, so I guess this isn't a huge surprise. Did anyone else get an email like this?

Interesting. How long/in depth was the Why ND essay you sent back?

Has anyone figured out if the seat deposit information after "decision made" is still an indicator for this year?
It also looks like around this point the big priority mail accepted envelopes were arriving and smaller waitlist snail mail was also received.

It seems like the seat deposit dates show up on your status checker if you are in. They showed up on mine and other posters ITT. But, I'm not sure how long exactly after you go to "decision made" they show up on your status checker.UltimateSplitter wrote:Has anyone figured out if the seat deposit information after "decision made" is still an indicator for this year?

Seat Deposit information showed up on mine a while after "decision made" come up (I don't think it was there as soon as I noticed the decision there).UltimateSplitter wrote:Has anyone figured out if the seat deposit information after "decision made" is still an indicator for this year?

For me it popped up about 90 minutes after the "decision made" update...not that I was being obsessive or anything...studyingeveryday wrote:Seat Deposit information showed up on mine a while after "decision made" come up (I don't think it was there as soon as I noticed the decision there).UltimateSplitter wrote:Has anyone figured out if the seat deposit information after "decision made" is still an indicator for this year?

Salty about all you guys with these decisions! I have an LSAT >75th and a GPA @Median, wrote the why NDLS essay, have gotten multiple acceptances from similar/higher ranked schools, and still haven't heard back from NDLS. Definitely want to get this one - it's the first one I'll be genuinely proud of!
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
