Does anyone know if going complete today (12/01) means that you are still considered for the fast track option? I have an email that says before December 1st, and I am unsure on the exact deadline.

Wondering the same thing. I submitted yesterday and went complete today. I found this on their website, not sure if it's relevant here:

"Applications submitted to LSAC for transmission to this law school will be considered postmarked on the day they are electronically transmitted"

So maybe they will go by the day transmitted?

Same thing happened to me as Liz.

Applied 10/14 and was admitted 10/16. Was never emailed a status checker link or a complete confirmation. Very bizarre. High 160s LSAT and a 3.5ish.

From some research online, I believe they send out scholarship info starting in the end of January. Can anyone confirm/deny?

Last year's thread didn't get any scholly info until late February, but that was late from what I understand.

My status check reappeared to "Decision Finalized - 12/2/14" after disappearing a few days ago.

Fast Track Plus applicant.
GPA: 75th (exactly)
LSAT: in-between 25th and Median.

EDIT: Received acceptance e-mail at 15:37.

It seems like they're getting all the fast tracks out of the way first.

I phoned Admissions yesterday and informed them that more than 10 days had elapsed since my file was complete.

Had I had not done this, I am not sure if they would have sent a decision.

So miffed that I didn't know about the Fast Track option. I went under review on 11/10 and am anxiously awaiting a decision. BC is my first choice. LSAT 165, GPA 3.96.... No word yet.

Lujanj7 it seems like they just automatically put some people in that category, not sure there's a lot of rhyme or reason to it. FWIW your numbers are higher than mine so I'm sure you'll be fine even though the waiting is killer.

Successfully solicited a fee waiver today. Not expecting much, but curious to see what the lowest LSAT score they have accepted in the past? If anyone knows please share

I was a fast-track applicant and I got an email last week that my application is being held until an incomplete on my transcript changes to a grade (retake scores from my year in France. apparently one class really can affect you for the worst.) I'm still waiting on my advisor to upload the scores, which aren't good.
How bad do you think one D will affect my chances? My GPA is currently at their 75% so it will drop down to either their median or above...

Need advice.

My status date came back as under review as of today after being gone for a couple of weeks...how long after UR did people have a decision? Complete 11/5, non-fast track.
