Urrr I assume that she can't tell us. She's already doing us a solid by giving a hint so let's leave it at that? Right?

Okay, no need to gang up on me, I was just curious...obviously I'm not expecting anything.

You know I've been really surprised at some people's responses on these threads when people ask questions.

I had a feeling this would freak people out. :lol: Basically all I've heard is "we will start admitting students in November" and I have no clue what the timing will be.

Good luck!

apologies if it seems personal.. we're all genuinely on edge and the worst facets of our personalities really shine through; didn't mean to gang up, though.

still wish you luck and hope it is earlier than later in November, for all of us. :)
Thanks, I wish you luck too.

I am grateful for the information, so thank you very much Slytherpuff :) I just wanted to see if anyone was willing to discuss it more, so I can manage my own expectations

If you're going to get in, it doesn't matter whether that acceptance comes this month or in a couple of months - have some patience and focus on your other apps (those of you who aren't done yet)! Everything will work out in the end, and you'll end up in the school you're meant to be attending.

When I called them a while ago they said the same thing: admission decisions could come out as early as Nov

On NYU Law's website, their admission rate is 14%. On ATL's Top schools list, it's 24%. On LSN, it's 33%.

Which one is correct?

NYU law profile (14%):

ABA report (33%):

Under Beyond the Numbers:

"The admissions process is highly selective. New York University School of Law has one of the largest and most competitive applicant pools in the country; about one in seven of those who apply are admitted."

Am I reading that incorrectly?

Still UR1 as of 10/4. Getting a little anxious, especially with all this talk of possible November acceptances. Is anyone else in this boat?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
