Status checker says, "After reviewing thoroughly your application for admission to UC Berkeley School of Law, the Admissions Committee has decided, with regret, not to offer you a place in the Class of 2016. We wish you all the best in your applications to other law schools and in your career. Thank you very much for your interest in Berkeley Law and for entrusting us with your application. A letter will be e-mailed to you in the next 24 hours."

Uncool!!

Edit: Got the email 10 minutes later.

Sorry, man. Real bummer, and an unfortunate way to find out (not that there is a good way).

Wishing you all the best with other outcomes.

Sorry, MOTM. Looks like you've got other great choices though!

Anyone else hear?

MoM, that's pretty ridiculous. I'm still under FR, but I know I'm all out of hope at this point. I'm sure I'll be in the same boat.

Status checker changed, and got the email. I suppose I'd kinda expected that by this point, and sure, my perspective on schools has evolved, but Berkeley was my top choice back when this process began. Blerg.

Waitlisted via e-mail. Got the email as soon as I stopped checking my status checker.

They rank their waitlisted candidates and email them their quartile, huh?

WL. Happy I wasn't rejected. Planning on staying on as long as possible.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

waitlisted...

disappointed? relieved?

berk was (is?) a tippity-top choice for me, but there are moving parts sufficient that it'd be difficult to drop everything and berk-out if i heard word mid-summer.
