sorry for the delay, stats 3.6/156 urm
If you are PT, I am guessing you will be admitted! I believe at the very least, you will get waitlisted.
Thanks,i need to get in so bad. Im praying for atleast a waitlist.
You and me both, buddy. Good luck to us. Cheers!

So it seems that there have been two rounds of PT Only decisions from the RD pool, but still nothing from PT/FT or FT Only. The logical conclusion is that the FT committee is still trying to decide who to accept. Some PT/FT people may really get screwed in the waiting game, because it's only after FT decides they don't want you that PT gets your file. I swear, this is the oddest admissions cycle I have ever heard of....

164/2.9 non-urm non-trad. I applied PT only.
Edit--wrong date entered.
I would assume you are a lock. This probably spells good news for all that got updated today, as SMU sends out acceptances in batches.
Thanks for the positive vibe.
Any other year I'd be a mid-pack applicant for PT. Who knows what this cycle will bring...

I applied FT/PT and was accepted PT. I don't know if people accepted FT saw a status change like mine, but I think mine updated to (not 100% sure if they changed one or both after I was accepted):
Program Type: Full/Part Time
Degree: JD Evening
I think that was a sign I was in for PT.

So, is it safe to assume that these will most likely be PT acceptances/rejections? No FT yet?

I received my call around 12:30 for this cycle, and around 3:30 last cycle. Hopefully everyone in the thread will receive a call soon.

I went complete on a similar date last year, and was admitted on 4/20. Don't give up.

Thanks! It's hard to stay sane since I'm also still waiting to hear from U of H and Baylor.

Depends on your numbers. I went complete March 10th (FT/PT; originally PT only, switched after LSAT re-take). At this rate, I'll hear in June at the earliest.
