I got in on 2/25 and I just checked my status checker to try to help you guys out.
My status still says decision finalized, and there's a blank mailing for 2/25. So i'd say it's definitely not a bad sign!

You'll get an email before the end of today. I think I received it approximately three hours after.

Actually I take that back. I received a status update of "Final Review", and was admitted the same day. I never received "decision finalized" prior to my admittance e-mail.

It could be several hours yet when factoring for Pacific timezone business hours.

Speak of the devil...ACCEPTED!

For those curious:

Mid-January submission, went Committee Read 1 pretty much immediately thereafter, then Committee Read 2 on 2/24 & 2/25 (random date change). Decision finalized today and then accepted via email.

GPA is between 25th & median.
LSAT is substantially above 75th.

In.

Submitted: 2/2
1st Review: 2/14
2nd Review: 2/24
Decision Finalized: 3/3

Noticed the status change around 12:30 PM (only time I checked all day), received acceptance e-mail at 1:50 PM.

GPA < 25%
LSAT > 75%

IN.

Significantly above both 75ths. UCLA already gave me a generous scholly so we will see what happens with USC!

phillywc · Post by **phillywc** » Mon Mar 03, 2014 6:33 pm

Yep, in as well. Would take a good scholly to get me to go, but that weather is sure appealing atm.

That was for those who were accepted very early, it's not likely it will that long for the recent admits.
