Similar interview dates. Complete in late OCT. But I'm a reverse splitter.

Haha well I'm not complaining with what I got. They only have so much money to throw around.

In via email yesterday! Above LSAT 25th and GPA 75th, applied October. Also got the note about inclement weather delaying snail mail...I'm surprised they were still working when the emails went out.

Congrats to the Hamilton/Butler recipients--well done.

Ditto. I'm guessing (hoping) our packages are in the mail.

How do they decide who gets interviewed? I know some TLSers who got admitted said they didn't interview, but it seems like more people did? (Submitted 1/5, completed a while ago)

For those who did not receive an email but were admitted via mail, has your status checker updated at all/did it update before receiving the mail?

Thanks! and congrats!

Pretty sure Columbia doesn't update beyond "complete" but I might be wrong!
Interested in a definitive answer to this, too.

I've been admitted via email and have received my letter, but my status checker still says complete.

perhaps the RD one is different, but my ED one basically only included a letter with my admitted students login, and a little info about enrolling, housing, and the ASWs. No forms or anything like that.
No swag either? I want a CLS pen!

Also, have their been any exceptions to the "email of admissions letter = no named scholly" rule? If so, please inform us.
