When to Cancel the CRS

When are people canceling the LSAC CRS? At the end of the cycle? Now? I've already applied to all the schools that I'm going to, and was accepted at 2 of them, and I'm sick of getting e-mails and mailings from schools that I have no intention of applying to. Would it be detrimental in any way to cancel it?

I would love to know the answer to this as well.
It's incredibly stressful as you're waiting for your decisions to arrive in your inbox, to be spammed by schools you've never heard of. Seriously University of Mississippi Law School, why do I care if your admissions office is closed from now till Jan 3rd??

Why don't you disable it? I never activated it and never got emails from random schools I have no interest applying to.

That e-mail was really weird. One of the lines from it urged me to e-mail them, saying that "I will be checking my email but it might be timely before you get a reply." Is that some use of "timely" I've never heard of, or am I right in suspecting that they meant "a while" and just used a word that makes no sense in context?

you probably never got fee waivers, either.

I disabled it and asked for fee waivers from the schools I was applying to. It worked pretty well and no weird emails.
And if your done applying you wouldn't really need fee waivers anymore.

I don't know why it's so agitating to have to delete a couple of e-mails every morning. Some of them are even entertaining! The one with the subject line "Georgia State University College of Law - We're #1" is a classic, and I'd never want to cut e-mails like that off.

That's true. If you need it activated for waivers then disregard deactivation advice.
