This helps SOOOO much...thank yOU!!

i think it's great to know all applications have been reviewed!!

I'm wondering how accurate the "20" ppl number is...it seems like 15 people from this site alone got pulled off.....o well can't dwell about that.

Hopefully we all hear something next week, which is my guess bc a lot of extentions were made till early May!

Anyone know what the date is this month that admits have to accept/WD?

Anyone know what the date is this month that admits have to accept/WD?

I might be wrong, but from what others have said...

The Accept/ Withdraw deadline was April 1st, but then they extended it to after the ASW (April 19th).

On April 19th, admitted students could accept, withdraw, or extend their decision for another month to May 19th.

However, I know students were accepted off the WL had 1 month from the day they were sent their acceptance email to either accept or withdraw.

That means there prob isn't one set date. I'd expect movement later this week till the end of the month..but based on what i've seen seems like they like to send out emails/ acceptances later in the week (ie on Thursdays).

but i could be wrong...

Thanks for the info! That's good to know I don't have to count down the days to one specific date. Hope we all hear some good news soon!

I am working on my LOCI (a little late, I know). I have my deposit down at UMN, but my wife's family is from WI, UW is a great option since I am likely going to practice there.

[Kitzhof]

Just got in off the wait list!

[Snwboarder78]

Just got off the wait list as well. There is hope yet.

[tvink]

I just got accepted today via email.

[lawcycle2010]

my heart hurts...didnt get an email today, but congrats to all of you who did.

Would you all mind sharing your numbers?

[xanderdellus]

Congrats all. Here's hoping!

[14:50] meeboguest619201: From my understanding there were some students pulled from the waitlist today, I was wondering if you expect any more movement this week?
[14:51] uwlawadmissions: That is unknown at this time. We do not plan our decisions on the wait list. They happen sporadically.
[14:52] meeboguest619201: I understand, would you be able to tell me the approx. amount of people on the wait list now?
[14:52] uwlawadmissions: We do not have record of that at this time.
[14:52] uwlawadmissions: The wait list is changing in size too often.
[14:53] meeboguest619201: is it possible to know around how many people have been taken off the list so far?
[14:54] uwlawadmissions: I believe a rough estimate would be 40. But, that doesn't mean they have all accepted our offers.

Hopefully anyone else still in the same boat as me will find this helpful....

PS dont want to sound like a broken record, but am I the only one left really wanting UW from the start thats still on the WL??

[xanderdellus]

In via email today!!! I am so excited!!! UW-Madison here I come!!! Also excited because it sounds like I will probably be getting into their MPA program so I can pursue the duel degree option!!! My numbers are 154, 158 and a 3.99 GPA. Best of luck to you all!!!

If they are pulling in extreme reverse splitters, that is not good news for the splitters among us. They must be more concerned with the GPA stats than the LSAT.

[mwweigel]
