Top Law Schools

When should we expect decisions? They say 4-6 weeks, but it's been over 7 weeks since I received my complete e-mail from them.

looks like it's just you and me, buddy. guess that'll make it easier to get in

I submitted 11/4 and am still waiting.

Add me to the list. Submitted and went complete on Wednesday.

Submitted 11/9, Complete 11/10. No update since...

accepted on 10/6 with $10k/year scholarship

should be hearing back any day now, but for some reason my status checker has all but LSAT score checked. doesn't make sense.

Waitlisted on the fourteenth.

162/2.91.

I've been in since 12/3. They only gave me 40K which I guess is generous enough but no way it makes up for the 200K+ COA esp. since it's prob not even 5th in line for the DC market. Anyway I got into a bunch of better schools so will most likely withdraw soon to free up a spot for someone else.

In Catholic's viewbook, it says that every application that is submitted and complete by Dec. 1 will have a decision rendered on or before 12/19 -- so does that mean we should be expecting a release from them soon?? Does the application status change to decision rendered once they decide or is it just a letter in the mail?

That status changes to the decision once it's made. That's how I found out I was in on 12/3 even though they didn't send an acceptance email and scholly info until 12/6.

Just got the email - I'm in! Scholarship email as well. Good luck

Congrats! If you don't mind me asking, what was your scholly? Catholic is on my list, but if the scholly's not enough to make DC worth it, they could definitely drop off.

Smartblonde, did your status checker change too or did you just get the email?

I submitted 11/4, got the confirmation 11/5 and it still has not said "Complete".

did the online status just change to "decision rendered" or did it indicate your acceptance/denial? thanks. hoping to get in!

I have no e-mail, so I'm waiting on this envelope.

I received an e-mail notifying me of admission.

Dont lose hope yet! I read some of the earlier threads and several people reported that it took several days to get an acceptance email.

Thanks, will try.

BTW, has anyone received the snail mail yet? I've been checking my box everyday!

Anyone else stuck at complete? I submitted 11/9 went complete 11/10, haven't seen any change. The website says all applications complete before December 1st will receive a decision before the New Year. I was just curious if it was just me that hasn't received a decision, or if there are others.

I'm complete but I think it's odd that I haven't even received the snail mail yet when it says it was mailed 12/22.

Or maybe waiting is getting the best of me...

My scholarship is contingent on my being top 25% of the class. Is that normal? How's the curve at CUA?

My scholarship also has this contingency. I saw that a lot last year in my scholarship offers.
