There's a ding on lsn. Can we assume if we've no email from them yet we aren't dings or is that wishful thinking? (Or does nobody know?)

We should start seeing some pretty heavy ding waves this month. Look at the disparity in numbers - 60 admits, 72 WLs, and only 17 dings.

Nope -- no interview or additional essay. Totally out of the blue. I didn't even submit FAFSA/Need Access!

I bet they'll be accepting people soon. I doubt they'd tweet out decision friday and hype it and then just have a bloodbath

Edit: Also, they tend to have mixed decision days from what Nick posted
