Hmm, just looked at my status checker, and I also am listed as "Invited For Interview." However, I haven't gotten any emails from U of C about an interview invite....is anyone else in the same boat?
My invitation went straight to the "Promotions" folder of my gmail for some reason. If you're using gmail, check all places spam might go.

Maybe they're just late with the email today, though.

Invited.

And so ends weeks of tweaking, soon to be followed by months of tweaking.

Am I a dumb idiot or is the "Appointment-Plus" link not working? Like it sends me to a promotional page and offers a "free demo" but contrary to popular belief I am not an adcom so I'm not tryna buy their services???????

Got the invite today! I felt like Chicago could go either way with my app (below median LSAT) so I'm pretty excited about this.

Sorry if this has already been asked elsewhere, I couldn't find it if it was. I just got an interview invite, and my LSAT is at ~25% with my GPA at median. Should I get my hopes up or nah? I honestly thought UChicago was an extreme reach school.

Interview is necessary for admission, but doesn't guarantee anything. It's a good sign though! I'd really try to nail the interview if I was you.

Also I don't think your numbers make Chicago an "extreme reach" by any means.


Good luck! :D

UR3 12/20! Interviewed 12/1. Anyone know if this is an indication of decisions coming out soon? (Maybe early Jan?) RD, for reference.

UR3 12/20 too! Interviewed 11/29, RD. I'm hoping this means early Jan., but I know UR4 is when we truly start sitting on that refresh button.

Is UR4 a necessary condition for a decision?
