Okay... I called. She said within 2 hours or so. And it is just after noon Central time, so.... hopefully by 2:30 CST...

Descision rendered this morning...

Same. Good luck. I'm nervous as hell.

Yeah, same here. I know I'm not going to get anything done at work until that status is changed one way or the other. I've already been accepted a couple of places, and DePaul isn't high on my list, but I do love Chicago!

Yea same except class. I was getting my notebooks together when I casually checked TLS and saw someone with a rendered decision. Checked mine, same thing. Thus, skipping class.

Descision rendered this morning...

Same. Good luck. I'm nervous as hell.

I got this as well. When should we expect an email? I would imagine that if we are hearing this quickly then it should be an accept or WL... for me at least.

+1 to bolded.... dying here...

Agreed. This will be my first decision unless I get some miraculous email from some other school in the next couple of hours.

Ooooh, thanks for the timeline update, firemedic!

[Wactawshus]

Decision Rendered as of this morning. This will be my first either way

there's a big batch of us all waiting to hear! According to firemedic, they should update in about 2 hours. Good luck!

[Wactawshus]

Thanks. Good luck to you too.

[chrisbru]

Thanks for sharing Firemedic! Looking forward to hearing how it turns out for all of us!

Decision Rendered via status checker. Awaiting e-mail. This will be my third decision. I hope it is my third acceptance.

[maxm2764]

Decision rendered as well. Now I'm nervous.

[ArmyHawkeye]

Decision rendered as well. Boom!

[ItsMyTimeBoston]

"Decision Rendered" via status checker today as well. This will be my first decision -- crossing my fingers!

[longhornlaw]

Last week, when I received my decision, I got the email at right around 3:30 CST. Best of luck to all of you this week!

[chrisbru]

I know the question has already been answered, but here's some backup. I emailed to ask about the "decision rendered" status and when we'll know the decision. Here is DePaul's email response:



"Thank you for contacting DePaul University College of Law Office of Admissions. In regards to your email; you will be receiving an email in the next day or so, letting you know your decision. Once again, thank you for contacting DePaul University College of Law Office of Admissions.



Regards,

LAWINFO"

Hmmm... the above seems like it might be more accurate... since the two hours has come and gone.

Do you think they feed off our anxiety? Maybe that's why they are dragging it out?

ETA: I bet they wait until after 5 so they don't get a bunch of "WHY DON'T YOU LOVE MEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????" calls.

[chrisbru]

Has anyone heard anything yet?! Office closes soon, correct?

[Wactawshus]

Nope, still waiting......and it's KILLING ME!

I bet you're right. The same way LSAC releases scores on Friday afternoons so they get the weekend before responding to all of the "THERE'S NO WAY I GOT A 146!" phone calls and emails.

Nothing yet... gonna check again in 10 minutes... I wish I wasn't working all night so I could have a beer (or 3). It would make this significantly more bearable.

I've got a paper due tomorrow. If no decision I'll probably have a few beers while I write the paper. If waitlisted I'll have a few whiskey drinks while I write the paper and if accepted or rejected I'm drinking a fifth of whiskey and going to the bars.

I like this. Unfortunately, I, too, am at work. For another 3 hours. Not like I'm getting anything done...

Yeah... I had to run errands... I kept checking email while filling air bottles and stocking the truck. Basically I check every 10 minutes or so.... severely limiting my activities. I almost wish someone would call 911 for something serious and distract me for 3 or 4 hours.

ETA: It has been an unusually slow day, in case you are wondering. Also, if I don't hear anything by 5 MST I will simply assume it is not coming until tomorrow.

[firemed]

Okay... done for at least the next several hours. Hopefully it will be there tomorrow morning.

[swilson215]

It just updated the status checker...IN!!!!

[Albatross]

Dammit. I'm out.
