I'm in your shoes. Some ED helds were accepted last week, but I haven't heard anything yet either

+1, minus the added rec. I'm saving that for in case I'm WL'd, which I'm guessing is my fate since being skipped over last week.

Yeah I'm assuming the same in my case.

Is there a DLA email sent out? Or are people only seeing it via status checker?

Reach applicant. No interview. Surprisingly got held. Notice said DLA would be accessible after 6 CST, but I was able to enter earlier.

Some pretty nice numbers in here.

BoyOhBoyle · Post by **BoyOhBoyle** » Thu Feb 06, 2014 7:05 pm

Also held 173/3.47

Received an email and was able to log into the Decision letter system and view it immediately.

Held today. Complete 9/12, LSAT 174-176, GPA 3.95x, no Why Northwestern/interview.

Anyone know what the odds of getting admitted after getting held are?

georgej · Post by **georgej** » Thu Feb 06, 2014 7:11 pm

Damn those are big numbers to be getting held with people! But I would bet a ton of you get accepted eventually. Maybe nu assumes you won't matriculate anyway?

ED hold applicant since 12/19 here. My DL required that I submit an online response re: continued interest and stated, in part

Beginning in January, we expect to complete our re-evaluation of those candidates who have chose to remain on hold. At that time, you will be notified whether you have been admitted, denied or placed on the waitlist...

This leads me to believe that ED holds will get another decision (relatively soon?) indicating a final status. Can any of you recent holds provide more information on the language in your letter? Do you have to fill out the online response? Is there any indication about when a final decision (WL/A/D) will be reached?

TL;DR - Are the holds coming out now the same as the ED holds that came out in December?

Thanks! I'm pretty astonished so many outstanding candidates have been held. To those that have: don't give up yet, the cycle's still young!
