Because people will ask, submitted on 1/6, complete on 1/18, 3.5x/168-->177
Almost the same dates as me... hmph. ugh, wish there were someone at my parents' house (perm. mailing address as I'm abroad) so badly right now!

Even though I have already determined a 1/28 batch is unlikely to include me, I saw that cat and began to get excited.

The lolcat effect: the irrational, baseless enhancement of law admissions-related emotion (hope, fear, excitement, anxiety) based on icanhascheezburger visual stimuli.

I wonder if there are even "waves" at all--or if they just send out, like, x number of envelopes on every day??? We've basically seen envelopes postmarked on every business day since 1/24.

Thanks guys. I included the info after getting frustrated at others for not doing the same thing...I can understand not wanting to include stats, but submit/complete dates aren't going to give anything away.

I actually came this close to stopping by CLS on 1/28 as I was there visiting my sister who is an undergrad at Columbia College but then my sister decided she needed me to help her pick up some groceries instead.

Guess this takes some of the pressure off the fact that I'm still processing at NYU...

hey do CLS admitted students have login info. analogous to NYU (i.e. LSDAS identification number and DOB for password) or do they assign some random username and password.

I'm just asking, because I've been able to logon to the NYU website even without the benefit of an official acceptance in the mail. Perhaps it would work for CLS?

No its a generic admitted students site login.

From what I read somewhere it's a generic username/pass for all students.

Edit: yeah what he said!

My numbers are auto-admit as well (although you obviously have WAY better acceptances than me).

Woohoo! Hope lives (even if it is a shadow of its week-ago self).

Just got an email from Columbia placing me in their "special" hold category. I guess this is not so bad?

Held today.
Complete 1/14. I'm guessing this isn't a waitlist?

Frankly quite surprised given my subpar LSAT.

Came in 1:16 PST.

AAAAAAAAAAH! *lights hair on fire*

This isn't so bad- it means that you can still receive and acceptance, waitlist, or denial in April.

ah I haven't even been held yet.... fast track to the WL or a ding? *hyperventilates*


edit: what time did your hold emails come in?

"Reserve" is a waitlist, "Hold" appears to be a little better than that.

Just got an email saying I'm being "held." I assume that this = waitlisted which from the looks of LSN is a black hole to rejection.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
