don't worry, if northwestern is any indication, law schools don't care all that much about their self-imposed deadlines :P

Last year's thread ended on Friday 2/26, so presumably, for better or for worse, everybody actually heard by the end of the month last year as promised by GULC...

I just saw a lot of varying waitlists-- everything from the preferred-preferred to the regular. On the plus side, seemed like a lot of people who were held got in off of the waitlists-- some from all 3.

I'm not holding my breath for an acceptance today, but if I'm waitlisted that makes things 10 times harder decision-wise than if they just reject me. Arg!

Did this also hold true for those deferred from ED?

i would too... but from what i've gathered, i think deferred and held mean the same thing at this point in the game. :(

yeah, I have no idea. I don't pretend to be an expert, I just skimmed over last year's thread at some point, haha.

I also updated earlier this morning. I think its also important to remember that the held email only promised that a decision would be finalized today, not that you would receive that decision so anythings possible. Good luck everyone!
