Stanford Law School c/o 2018 Applicants (2014-2015 Cycle) Forum

[titusandronicus]

I haven't done the work of sifting through 2017's and 2016's applicant threads, but does Stanford always admit on a strictly chronological basis? I submitted right at the end of October and am trying to keep my hopes up.

I noticed today that my account for the Stanford status checker is gone. When I go to recover password, it says my username is invalid. Does this mean a rejection is on the way?

Edit - Never mind, realized when reading back in the thread there are two status checks and I looked at the wrong one. Phew.

[Oskosh]

Well, that means Stanford should be approaching January applicants... Hopefully... Please Stanford consider me.

From mylsn's timeline feature it looks like last years admits we're roughly consecutive at first, then they went back and made decisions about everyone who had been passed over. The year before that was less chronological though.

If you are a splitter (like I am!) you'll probably hear back later, after the initial (semi) chronological admits. It's sad to see people who submitted after you get admitted - but stay strong!

If I'm an early December complete does that mean that I should expect that I've been either held/ or waitlisted/dinged if I didn't get the call yesterday?

Had this response ITT yesterday:

lol yikes, the lack of January submits in the Admit pile is... concerning. Maybe this year will be different since they didn't start making calls until much later?

Fudging it makes sense to me, but at some point they have to catch up to get to the deadline with their target number of offers out. Keep hope alive!

Thanks, sorry for the double question asking!

[JER1986]

Admitted via email this morning. (Missed the phone call.) I submitted in early November, so it definitely seems they're not going in strict chronological order. PM if you'd like more info and good luck to everybody.

[hillz]

Congrats! you're right, it does seem like they are not going in strictly chronological order.

And what about those candy hearts with such sweet messages? BE MINE. I’M YOURS. KISS ME. TRUE LOVE. YOU AND ME. SEND CASH. Oh, wait, scratch that last one. Hearts all over the place. Too many red roses. Chocolate this and chocolate that. Too much pink and too much sugar.

Faye sounds a little unhinged today

[wheresthethesis]

I'll totally be yours Stanford, if you only gave me a call

[pylon]

Uh oh, "LOVE SLS. ADMIT ME. SLS 4-EVER. I’M YOURS. CALL ME." was more or less my personal statement...
