Berkeley Waitlist/Faculty Review Support Group 2012 Forum

[catwomangirl]

Got the call from Dean Tom 40 minutes ago! Berkeley was my dream. Just when I completely gave up hope and was like, "Ok God, I should stop be so unappreciative....Thanks for getting me so far. Penn and UVA aren't THAT bad" I got a phone call 10 minutes later. Hopefully those of you who really want Berkeley get it too . California here I come!!!!

Yay! You totally deserve it! Welcome!

so no waitlist and no phone call means the inevitable at this point, right...?

[Campagnolo]

Damn you University of Minnesota Law email!

They can't be done with phone calls, surely.

I'm sure there are a few more coming. It's early in the day yet.

[lawschool899]

hope so. im at work and can't get anything done but stare at my phone...which constantly goes in and out of service

[nyyfan333]

well here come the status updates, looks like stuff is moving quickly

[Campagnolo]

My status still says Faculty Review, for whatever it's worth. Just checked it.

And Berkeley, you should know I didn't even look at Michigan's status checker today.

[darkgrayclouds]

My status is also still at faculty review.

Thanks so much everyone!!! Omg everyone freaking out seriously chill. This whole forum almost gave me 99999999999999999 aneurysms! There may be still be hope . I was already planning on being rejected just because everyone made such a big deal about not getting a phone call yesterday. I literally told Dean Tom, "I seriously thought there was no chance of getting in at this point!" and he was like, "Well that's why I'm calling you with good news " Regardless I'm sure most of you have gotten into REALLYYYYY good schools. Soooo you MIGHT still get in or you might go to an amazing other school. It's not the end of the universe. I'm 100% certain I want to practice in CA so the whole thing was super stressful but even so after having a phone conference with the head of the career center at Penn I realized it wasn't the end of the universe if I had to go there. Chin up! All of you

Yeah. I just checked. I got an e-mail too shortly afterwards.

[chicagohopeful]

In via email (will Dean Tom call later?)! Thrilled! I'm ready to join my brother who's already out there.

[Campagnolo]

[grumblegrumble]

Congrats chicagohopeful!! It doesn't matter how your told your admitted, just that you're admitted!

[chicagohopeful]

Thanks! I'm ecstatic!?! And I'm crossing my fingers for everyone still waiting it out!

[thecactus]

IN via email (I'm overseas, so that might explain why there was no phone call.)

Congrats to everyone else who got in!!!!

For those of you still waiting, don't lose hope!
