I'm not sure about this. I want to say that waves are typical for other schools so I'd imagine perhaps here as well.

I'm sort of in reach territory, depending on how you see my LSAT.

GPA < 25, 25 < LSAT < 50, URM (AA)
I'm probably a reach.

GPA is at median, LSAT is below 25th but I'm non-traditional.
Hm... So I'm URM, you're non-traditional... Stats are neither great nor terrible.... Welp...This could go either way :|

Edit: Literally just went on mylsn to stare at the green for a second and try to ease my anxiety ------- didn't work lol

Will we eventually get an email? or is a DLS by snail mail?

I'm overseas and I don't think NYU has my foreign number.

We should eventually get an email. (And for admits, there's the website log-in trick as well)

Okay I bit the bullet and decided to check my status checker after receiving my ding email this morning (it's been ruffff guys, I'm still trying to move forward).
My status says: Decision letter sent BUT my "Mailings" section indicates "Decision Notification sent." Not sure if that helps.

And you're referring to the actual "current status," right? Not something under mailing or something like that?

That's how mine looks currently, although I haven't received this alleged sent mailing :roll:

Thanks for looking for us and I'm sorry to hear you were dinged

Yeah, I'm not sure about that. My status is DLS and I have the mailing section that says DNS.

I was admitted last week, and my "Current Status" says "Decision Letter Sent" but no "Decision Notification Sent" in the Mailings section.
Thanks all... I mean I suppose I'll either wake up to a rejection/WL (assuming I can sleep) or get into the ASW but it seems bleak

I agree.

I know that some people dinged earlier were saying they received the email before their status checker changed.

I tried to look at earlier threads and see if they'd solved this mystery, but it doesn't seem like any previous years had (or realized) this strange inconsistency lol

i was admitted in the first wave and I have both DLS and DNS.

I know it sucks, but I think you'll just have to wait until tomorrow. I think someone who had a similar issue with ASW was able to log on at midnight, if that's any consolation. Good luck guys

Another possibility could be that the status checkers are updated all funky because the wave isn't intended to be until tomorrow, although idk why they'd update at all today for that...

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
