Mine has been "complete" with no date for a couple days now. Also blank mailing/fee boxes, req box filled though. Just wondering if other people have this...

I believe the mailings is for documents that are mailed to admissions (possibly coming from them as well). I sent in my ED contract through snail mail so that is taking up the space there. The Fee's are probably for fee's we have to pay if/upon being accepted.

Checkin' in!

[legummagister]

There are some admissions in LSN; has anyone here been admitted so far?

[antiworldly]

I just got the call about an hour ago, I was accepted. She said the admissions packet will be put in the mail tomorrow.

It changed to "Decision Made"

did anyone else apply to the public interest scholarship?

I'm accepted as of this morning! I applied for the public interest scholarship but haven't heard anything yet. Not sure what the timetable is, but I imagine they'll wait until they can evaluate the entire applicant pool. Thus, I don't expect to hear anything until December LSAT scores come in.

and I had just gotten myself to stop refreshing the status checker ten times an hour...

seriously...

but congrats to those accepted! I have a question, did your status checker ever say "under review"? or did it just just jump from "application complete" to "decision made"

sorry I just messed it up with other schools, actually mine remained "application complete" ever since september ...

[Dr. Nefario]

Mine's been "application complete" since late October. I'm ED though.

I know last year BU did a desperation heave with massive scholarships at the end. In my case, at least, it was too late. Admissions are an art, not a science. I wouldn't put too much stock into a few point distinction in LSAT median. Doesn't really effect you as a student.

Meaning that they increased their financial offering as it got closer to deadline? Any idea how much?

For me personally, they increased the scholarship from $15k/yr to $35k/yr.

Oh wow, that's fantastic. How do you like it there, if you ended up attending?

and by few point distinction, are you referring to the changing median for the school overall on a year to year basis?

I ended up staying in Portland and attending Lewis & Clark. You're exactly right, I meant the changing median. I am not trying to fly in the face of everything preached on TLS, but LSAT median isn't really the metric you want to be looking at when you're considering a school. It matters a lot to those applying, post-admissions it matters to no one (other than to the school's ranking, and miles may vary on how much even that matters).
