Anyone applied in Nov and still waiting for a decision? Interviewed in Dec, should I consider myself held or wait listed at this point?

That is really odd that you were never officially held...

Hmmm.

So interviews are almost always for candidates they arent sure about?

Define "not sure"?
I think it may or may not depend on alumni or group.

Borderline candidates or possibly yp. Got invited for the DC group interview. Number wise I am very competitive. I did not write a why gtown. Their website says the group interview is for candidates they want to know more about before making a decision. That doesn't sound good.

Has anyone residing in the Midwest been interviewed? I had three completes so far (1/16, 1/31, 2/14) without any news... How many completes do they normally have before WL or Ding?

I am living in the Midwest and was interviewed, but I applied much earlier. I wouldn't sweat it too much if I were you; with all of the weather they have been dealing with, they are at least 5 days behind schedule.

Thank you! I feel much better

How long does it normally take between interview request and your interviewer contacting you? I got an invite 1/28 and have heard nothing since.

Thanks for your info. Let's be patient I guess.

For me, it only took two days for my interviewer to contact me. For other people, I have seen two weeks+. This is entirely dependent on the alum and shouldn't be any indication of G'town's interest in you.

Makes sense, thank you. I'm just getting a bit nervous since I'm coming up on three weeks. Guess we just gotta stay patient.

did anyones status checker change from "complete' to 'application completed?" i wanted to know if it had anything to do with decisions.

I think mine changed from "complete" to "application completed" as well, not sure of the difference.

Yup, mine did, and I received the acceptance letter in the mail today (postmarked 2/10, same as my last complete date).

I'm in via ASW! I was able to request a username/password two days ago (Wednesday), but they didn't work until now.

Median LSAT & >75% GPA, with unique softs. They did not ask me to interview.

Follow-Up: I'm officially in! I received my acceptance letter (small envelope!) in the mail today. It's postmarked 2/10, same day as my last complete date. I also believe my status changed from "Complete" to "Application Completed" today, but I didn't pay close enough attention to be sure.

Its seems like another round of decisions.

Also do they do dings my email?

Actually I think we are maybe being crazy. Earlier posts indicate it has always been that phrasing. Too many status checkers to keep track of...

Also, dings are email, I think.
