I've decided to apply for the hell of it-yet to be rejected from anywhere
This is my only t14 app but i've already gotten into 2 top 20's.
My numbers are slightly below 25th lsat and above 75th gpa. 2 years of work experience with good softs.
Have a fee waiver so the worst that can happen is that they say no.
It does look like i am sort of screwed for the interview though.
We shall see!

I sent in everything early January but obviously missed all the Skype sign ups since December. I remember admissions emailing out about releasing some future Skype interviews mid-January. Anyone have suggestions for the best way to keep up to date with sign-ups or the best methods to ensure I get one?

Also, how much are admissions chances lowered without an interview?

Thanks!

Admissions says no more Skype interview slots will be added. A few people have reported a slot or two being added sporadically as people cancel their interviews, but I personally haven't lucked out and gotten one. What I recommend doing is emailing admissions with the suggested "what I would have said in an interview" supplement and asking them to mark your app complete, and checking periodically to see if slots have been added (though I will, of course, fight you for them if they were

). Should you manage to snag one, you can just email them and ask them to change it again.

Another wave soon? Today? Tomorrow?

You're so invested in this thread, at this point I don't know if I'd be more excited to hear you got in or I did.

Also for the poll - does a status change post-interview count?

This poll is making me feel worse about mine. Sitting on (almost) lonely date change island over here.

I'd say no - you're not complete until after you interview, right? I'm not sure, I wasn't able to do one.

Oh yes you are correct! nevermind then

My NU status checker was updated today and now reads "Decision Letter Available within 24 hrs". How mysterious.

Applied early November. In-person interview late November with an alumnus.

Congrats admits! Here's hoping we don't break the status checker this time...

11/13 complete date. Just let me down easy.

At this point, I am not expecting anything good to come from NU.

leslieknope · Post by **leslieknope** » Tue Jan 20, 2015 4:39 pm

Why do I always miss these Skype windows

Congratulations new admits, though!!
