Doesn't the prospectus just say that they strongly encourage you to have a complete application by mid-December? Decisions have typically gone out the last week of October/the first week of November for the last few cycles. http://mylsn.info/r/pre-law/timeline/chart/
There's a time-line on pg. 16/17 that lists 'decision letters begin' in Dec. Thanks for the info, crossing fingers that we start hearing back soon.

I'm sure this has been answered at some point, but is there any logic/rhyme/reason behind when apps go UR? I have seen a couple people who submitted at the same time or even before I did but aren't UR, whereas I went UR 10/19. I'm guessing they just pull batches due to exorbitantly high volume, but anyone else have any insights?

Interesting. I haven't seen a prospectus in a while to be able to compare. Sometimes schools put a date down the line to buy themselves time. Fingers crossed though :P
Sounds like those incredibly reliable LSAT score release dates

I heard rejections begin sometime in February / March. So essentially it's possible that you can be UR in October and hear nothing for 4 - 5 months, only to get rejected right? lOL

Should I be getting worried?
You definitely should not be worried! I feel the anxiety of no status change though, hopefully you'll get some relief soon.

I status checked my status checker before Ieft work for the gym yesterday (6 pm) and then refreshed my email 30 mins later and had an email from them notifying me of the change, so rest assured they will email you pretty much instantaneously and you don't need to be obsessively checking it every hour now that you know there are more URs being given out. Not that anyone would do something so crazy...

I think there's a fair chance, given the time frames from last year. Either way, good morning! And Happy Friday! :D

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
