Decision date predictions.

Idk, something about NYU law people are hype for? E.g. Clinics, things specific to NYU.

Decision date!

I just applied yesterday, and I'm amazed at how much more quickly NYU goes under review! What's the turn-around time for decisions, for those who have been accepted?

There haven't been any decisions yet, so we don't have that information yet, at least as far as I know!

There will be a huge flood of decisions on the first week of December, but probably none before then.
So hold on tight!

Thanks! It's been a struggle focusing on anything but admissions haha

You're not waiting until you get your Dec score for CCN?

I'm waiting until Dec for Chicago, but Columbia and NYU aren't my top choices so I figure I'll apply there now. My GPA is over the 75ths and my LSAT now is at/over 50th percentile, so I'm not at too much of a disadvantage.
Dec is more for schollys than admittance for me (minus Chi and Harvard)

I'm in the same position GPA/LSAT percentile-wise as you are for Columbia, opposite for NYU. I think Columbia attaches scholly offers with their initial decisions though so I'm waiting for Dec. I'm also really terrified of being rejected/wl'd in general though since they, along with H, are my top choices.

I feel ya. Michigan is my top choice and I would wait for Dec, but I really wanted a shot at the Darrow so I went ahead and used my Oct there. You've currently got a solid LSAT (I think you're a point higher than mine) so I definitely wouldn't worry about being rejected in your shoes!

I'm eternally UR 1

I was UR2 earlier, a little over a week ago now. The consensus is that these dates don't matter, right?

Correct. Last year there wasn't any discernible pattern or meaning for UR dates at NYU.

I'm wondering if it is possible for UR2 to mean: decision made - waitlist. For that's what happened to me for Duke.

UR can mean anything at NYU. Each school utilizes the status checker differently and it isn't worth your time or stress to analyze across schools. NYU UR hasn't had a noticeable meaning or pattern in the past so until one arises, don't sweat it.

I was also UR2 at Duke and was accepted.

I didn't mean UR2 equals wl, I mean, does UR2 at NYU guarantee safety? or it could be either acceptance/rej/wl?

Thanks a lot. Hope it turns out to be good news. Fingers crossed.

UR 1: 9/15
UR 2: 11/23

Hoping this means our prediction poll is right!

Definitely hope the poll is right even though I'm still UR1. Would love some movement in early December!

I was RD.
I'm not willing to write a $300K ED check anywhere.
