interesting result with this type of search is that it reveals just how many people do not update their LSN, thereby illustrating the key flaw in drawing TOO many conclusions from the data. Of the 5 pages of stanford applicants from 2011-2012, 2 of them are entirely "Pending" applications.. so 2/5 of stanford applicants simply didn't care to update their decision. While I bet these are largely rejects, its unfortunate.

Eh. That's why I only look at final decisions and assume any WL that isn't WL-Admit is WL-Reject, because that is incredibly more likely.
Even that isn't an initial admit.

But yes, WL-admits do happen.

Since the decision date is April 25th, I imagine the convo went something like this
S: Hello etched, this is SLS admissions office calling
E: omgomgomg
S: We would like to personally tell you that we are giving you the honor of..
E: omgomgomg
S: Being given a slot on our waitlist!
E: I hope you die
S: April fools! Congratz, you've been admitted to SLS!
E: its not April 1st.....wait what?

Has anyone who hasn't been notified yet called SLS to inquire about timeline? If so, what was their response? That they would have everything out by April 30?

I called last week and that was their exact response. They "hope" to have all decisions out by April 30th.

For what it's worth, I called SLS a little over an hour ago and they said they are basically done admitting people for right now. That was over phone, not via WL letter.

Finally DLS, going to Columbia Law.
EDIT: WL like everyone else left. I'll probably stay on, not sure what the numbers are for WL'd URMs.

I'd love to turn this into a game. Who'll be the last person to be DLS'ed on TLS.
Either way, still standing.

Still alive. On LSN there are substantially less dings than last year so they might be saving us for a ding wave.

I know. I should've sent a LOCI that specified we had plans to have project runway marathons.

At least they made me sweat it out for over six months before the ding!
