How's this for a LOCI?

Georgetown Oh Georgetown
The whole day through
Just an old sweet song Keeps Georgetown on my mind

I said Georgetown
Georgetown
A song of you
Comes as sweet and clear as moonlight through the pines

Other schools reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in the peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you

I Said Georgetown, oh Georgetown
No peace I find
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgetown on my mind

As both a native Georgian and a Georgetown WL'er I am morally conflicted over this...

It depends, sometimes it's the same day or in the couple days after. Stuff usually goes out around 4:30-5:00PM Eastern

Hi, guys! I was just looking for some input on my current standing with GULC. My file was complete on 2/22 and I just called admissions on Monday. They indicated that they were going to render decisions for all files completed by 3/1 this Friday, April 15th in order to allow time for a deposit by May. (The woman I spoke with seemed very confident about this piece of information.) I am assuming anything except a "congratulations" will come via email. Would you think it is safe to say that no email from Gtown by Friday could be a good sign? Seeing as if acceptances are only mailed they will take longer to arrive?

Anyone else change from 2/28 to 4/13?

pandabear00 · Post by **pandabear00** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 12:52 pm

Yes, I have updated at least twice since completion date (on 2/22), but I have not been waitlisted, held, or received a phone call. I am not sure what to expect at this point ...

Really depends on your numbers

hahahaha fair point! maybe they meant "special" like "stop eating the glue" sort of special.

I don't know about SPWL, but from last year's estimates roughly the same percentage of kids got off the PWL as off the regular WL. Though the PWL was much smaller.

What numbers did you find?

I want to say it was in the 10-20% range? Something like 200 PWL kids and 500 WL kids with 10-20 from the former and 25-50 from the latter. But my memory of it is kind of foggy.

EDIT: And I found it. It wasn't from last year, it was from a few years ago: http://www.top-law-schools.com/archives ... =7&t=31891

Seems like they accept more than that. I can already find about 10 people on TLS who were admitted off the PWL and obviously TLS only represents a fraction of people actually on the PWL.

Do you mean this year? I think most of the people that got off so far were special priority with 2 maybe 3 off priority and 1 or 2 off of regular.
