Not OP but …

Did either of you jump through any hoops (LOCI, interview, or hold essays)?

I am not crazy, because I have the original one downloaded.
What to do??
I'd email them or wait

That's what the letter always said. Stop freaking out, all. It sucks that the one kid who has a 174 3.high got in when he already has money at CLS (no offense, but you've already got some great options, and a lot of us don't)- but lets keep on hopin' y'all. We're in it for the long hall.

Speculation only breeds anxiety

Just checked and mine says May 9th as well. No email yet though.

Edit: Just realized that its May 9th today...

Damn, congrats Theo. Hopefully they'll send out some more acceptance emails Monday.

So we aren't speculating that next week is only WL?

I sure hope not, for the sake of my sanity...and apparently according to lawschoolnumbers and this thread, only 3 people got accepted, so I'm hoping they're going to release more than that...

WLs are better than rejections though.

WL sucks. What are the chances you get off of it :/

Oh well, today is it!!! Or is it tomorrow lol

One won't know the chances of getting off the WL. But someone did a breakdown of waitlist acceptances and it looks like they didn't start accepting people off the WL until June all the way to July 26th.

Does WL acceptances still count in Northwestern's numbers and medians? If it does not, then that's probably the reason they'll waitlist splitters now and accept them later.

It's possible that they wanted to "test" my commitment. By holding me they are giving me the option to drop out.

I'm almost positive they count

Not likely. I'm waiting to see what the money offer will be. If it's substantive, I may have to think it through.
