what are my chances of admission/scholarship offers? 3.3/167; solid post-grad work experience, strong PS and letters. Getting mixed reactions from law school numbers - similar stats are being rejected and others are being offered significant $. Ruling out URM status, could soft factors be playing that big of a role?

From what I've heard there's no telling for sure. You should be accepted I would think but money? Who knows?

Anyone know when the first wave came in last year after the holiday break?

According to 13-14 thread it seems like Weds. Jan. 8th. Maybe we will find out tomorrow?

Here's a link to the DOA's twitter, on Jan. 5th she retweeted "Happy New Year. The team is back at #FordhamLaw and back to reading some great applications and yes, we've received your Dec LSAT Score."

after being "Your Application has been Received" for about 2 weeks....

Similar thing happened to me. Updated 12/12 to same status. Went complete around mid November.

bodie9 · Post by **bodie9** » Thu Jan 08, 2015 6:36 pm

Date change to 1/8/2015. Status still at complete

Lol: I was at these status updates:

1. Received (seemed like it stayed like this forever)
2. (A couple of weeks past forever--) Complete (yes, finally !! I thought, 'Halleluja!')
3. On 1/4 signed up for February LSAT for a retake
4. As of 1/5: "Incomplete pending future LSAT score"

FML...this makes me laugh tho--almost to the pt. of driving me crazy (

)

Hey you lucky ones,
How long was it from the time you went to "under review" to when you got your answer? My status changed yesterday.

Thanks!

Has been accepted post-holidays? It looks like last year there were plenty of acceptances by now but I see nothing here or on LSN...

My application went complete on 12/3 and there was a date change on 1/8. On the site it says that it takes 6-8 weeks for a response but mine just hit the 6 week mark today. Maybe there will be a round this week or next?

Triceratopz · Post by **Triceratopz** » Wed Jan 14, 2015 1:30 pm

Well I went complete 12/8 and finally the date has changed to today. Now to wait for the decision.

Does Fordham have an Under Review aspect to their status or does the status move directly from Complete to Decision Made?

Mine doesn't have a date change to today. does that mean i shouldn't be expecting a decision?

I'd almost rather not know that they're going to send stuff out, it makes me feel like I'm going to go crazy with the refreshing.

Just got the email acceptance, including:

"You are in our very first round of acceptances this year so while we are very excited to welcome you to our class, we are still in the process of getting our Admitted Student Website ready"
