Went UR as of today. Non-PT RD. Bitches better be quick and not add to my other month-long UR anxieties.

Apologizes if this has already been answered, but any info on how long it usually takes to receive the decision email after status checker changes to "Decision made; watch for email?" Went UR yesterday and status changed to decision made today.
Edit: also not PT, RD.

Not sure, considering I got my email before my status changed. The email came for me around 5:30PM EST.ElizabethKB wrote:Apologizes if this has already been answered, but any info on how long it usually takes to receive the decision email after status checker changes to "Decision made; watch for email?"

It seems to vary, but I think the average time is about 3-4 hours? I think some people have reported not receiving their email until pretty late into the evening, however, so keep checking if you haven't received it by 10 or so.ElizabethKB wrote:Apologizes if this has already been answered, but any info on how long it usually takes to receive the decision email after status checker changes to "Decision made; watch for email?"

Anyone know what kind of questions will be asked or what the format is of the optional Skype interview with a member of the scholarship committee?

I hope they just trashed the idea. As a person who works full time, finding opportunities to conduct Skype interviews during the work day is VERY difficult. Phone calls are a bit easier, but I still sometimes feel that despite law schools' preference for people with work experience, they arent doing much to help those of us who work working hours.james.bungles wrote:Nopesmile0751 wrote:Has anyone been invited to interview yet?

Are there any single occupant restrooms at your work? You can always do your interview in there.smile0751 wrote:As a person who works on a team, I never am left alone.

Nope, but I appreciate the ingenuity. lol. Although if I did, I guess I could tell the interviewer that I was in a subterranean subway and tell my team that I'm having some really personal issues and will need to be left alone in the restroom for 20-30 minutes.pulstar1 wrote:Are there any single occupant restrooms at your work?

In via e-mail! Can't believe it considering my numbers were getting PR'd the past few weeks. Very excited about Duke, hopefully they're generous with money.
Slightly under 25% GPA, Above 75% LSAT. PT. Wrote a "Why Duke." Non-URM, average softs.

Stupid question, but does it make a difference if the primary email is capitalized on a status checker, and the secondary email is lowercase, or is that just how they input it?
