good luck to everyone in review already! I have had the "Awaiting CAS Report" status since 11/15, and I was a bit worried until I saw this thread. Hopefully they'll get around to my app soon.

"Awaiting CAS Report" since 11/5

LOR box is the only one unchecked

I've been awaiting the LOR checkbox since 11/2. I'm just lowering my expectations to a late January decision at best.

Ditto, except "Awaiting CAS Report" since 10/29.
I emailed yesterday to see if anything was wrong with my file and here's the auto response I got:

Sooo.... I just checked my status checker, and now, finally, I am "ready for review" as of 12/03/10. Perhaps me inquiring about my status sped things up a bit??

[HerseyChris]

Oh snap. I'm in review too.

Also, I applied last year and the way it worked was Ready for Review --> In Review --> Blank --> You got a letter

Good luck akili!

how long after submitting your app did you get an email with the status checker?

It came really quickly for me--I think later that day.

Aright, I submitted on 11/17 and still they haven't received my CAS report. UWash is miles behind every other school I applied to, despite being one of the very first applications I sent out. Frustrating because I like this school so much, yet W&L, which I really have no intentions of going to, accepted me within 5 days...go figure.

I guess after this week its time to e-mail admissions. Seemed to work for other people on this thread to get the ball rolling.

Feels to good to vent...

I know the feeling, but it seems like patience is the name of the game with UW. Based on years past and what some of the admissions staff have reportedly said, I would be surprised if most of us do not wait another four to six weeks before we get definite answers.

Aww thanks! I still have your nice note on my LSN profile. Maybe this year it'll really happen

I applied Thursday and no email yet. It shows up under my LSAC completed applications tab...

They sent me my status checker in about a week and I applied when there was less traffic (end of Oct) so I'd give it a couple more days. If it's not in by Thurs/Fri, I'd send them an e-mail requesting a status check on your status checker.

Thanks! I just got the email this morning.

[athenian]

Got an e-mail with the status checker this morning. I'm still waiting on the CAS report?

Anyone else know how long it took for that issue to resolve itself?

I'm still waiting (since 11/17). Looks like some people's have changed and others have not. I figure they'll get around to it eventually?

[LeDique]

Has anyone called about a fee waiver request? I initially asked for one 11-11 and followed up a week later. They finally told me they were "considering my request" and have sent me nothing since.

Communication doesn't seem to be their strong suit. I e-mailed them about a pending Dec. LSAT that I canceled and they didn't reply back... the next day my status popped to Complete and then I went UR 12/01.

[Aggiegrad2011]

Just flipped to 12/13 review. Oh boy...

Does that mean something important?

[Aggiegrad2011]

Does that mean something important?

Probably not, but this thread is dead and I wanted to liven it up! When I saw the new review date, I figured I might as well pop on here and get it goin'.

Hoping for some green to fill in amongst my many wait-lists this cycle so far...

[athenian]

At what point should I call and ask what the deal is with the CAS report?

I'll join! I just applied to UW today (I know, super last minute after payday) but I'm hoping that based on all the talk of 'non-rolling' admissions I won't be at much of a disadvantage... The more I'm seeing about UW the more I'm liking!

Good luck everyone
