I didn't have a status checker for over a month. I eventually got accepted.. I think its just their status checker is faulty. Not any divine sign

Thus far no school has sent me both acceptance + scholly in one. Scholarship usually follows about 3-6 weeks after.

See this morning I got into William and Mary and they sent me my scholarship with it. Along with most schools I've gotten into. Just curious when to expect the monies.

BC has been saying end of January for scholarship emails, so they should start coming out pretty soon.

Great thanks a lot.

Edit: Also, did anyone get the email taking about the Business Insider rankings? How do people feel about them? #17 isn't bad at all.. but I don't know about the methodology.

Quick question if anyone can remember:

Were the First and Second Deposit lines visible before getting accepted?

My status checker has been really sketchy lately and I just recently noticed that I now have the first and second deposits visible.

I think there's going to be a lot've waitlist movement this year. If you look at the Georgetown thread, there's applicants with scores as low as 156 getting waitlisted as opposed to outright rejection.

I registered for an ASW, but does anyone have any more info on it? All I see are the times. Is there an agenda? Can mom come? Maybe there's some 1Ls lurking that will know.

I haven't seen an agenda, your parents can generally come, but I think the general response on these boards is to not bring parents cause there won't be much for them to do and it is frowned upon. That said, I took my grandparents on a visit with me because they paid for the trip so IMO it's honestly up to you.

I don't know what an ASW is... but I took a campus tour yesterday and audited a class. I enjoyed it and our guide was great, as were the people in the admissions department. I also met with a professor who is a family friend. All in all glad I did it. Gorgous campus in a nice location... I grew up down the street and have driven by probably tens of thousands of times, and not once toured the campus.

If everything works out and I end up going it will be wicked convienient to be able to drop the dog off at my parents place on longer days.
