HOLD MY DICK!

O_O my, you're forward.

[cogitoergosum]

Held. I am so disappointed, simply because this non-decision decision just means more waiting. I was hoping to at least have a DECISION either way by now. Just put me out of my misery already!

I assume that's a reference to one of my favorite youtube videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDd5DPAGoCk

Haha. I'm at work- definitely not clicking any video that references dick holding.

If Jam doesn't get in, it's chicken little sky is falling time. I think he's what, 3.5/176? That seems perfect NU numbers.

I was held at 3.6, 177.

Audio is definitely NSFW.

ETA: For reference, it's a commentary on a clip of a Marshawn Lynch play.

WHAT IS GOING ON

[Kikero]

So...are there a whole bunch of non-TLS people out there celebrating right now or was this nothing but a "hold" day? Because an entire batch of nothing but holds seems sort of pointless to me.

Sorry about the bad luck, guys.

[Mr. Somebody]

I think there are still acceptances coming, would they really make a big exciting tweet about a "hold" day?

[mrmojojak]

I'm inviting him to my super bowl party

Jeez. Now I'm really glad my application status is still just "Complete". (It's been that way since 12/1.) Sorry guys.

Also held. Anyone plan on doing the hold interview?

I missed like 10 pages and can't be bothered to read them all. What happened today?

I'm really starting to hate this law school admissions process... not just like "aw shucks," but like... "I freaking hate this."

I feel the exact same way. After all that excitement of, I submitted my application in early october and now 4 months later you finally have a decision, and then you dont. I almost wanted to withdraw just cause I'm so over this whole process. Of course I didn't, I <3 NU. But so far I have been held at Harvard, Michigan and now Northwestern. I almost like Berkeley because they were humane enough to just ding me already.

Whole messa holds.

Thinking about it. But that would mean flying to Chicago from Canada. Thinking long and hard...

There's a hold interview? So they offered to do an additional interview due to the hold status?

Nevermind. Just checked my status and saw that's what happened to me too.

[emkay625]

Oh gosh. This thread is so, so sad. I'm sorry guys.

From the FAQ:
If you have not participated in an on-campus interview, you may schedule an interview for the months of February or March. Please note that March interviews are reserved for hold candidates who have not yet interviewed with us, or who have only done an off-campus interview with an alum.

Sad. I has it.

[Mr. Somebody]

Maybe NU Law Adcom tweet = hold

Johann tweet = accept

And, I interviewed off campus, but with an admissions officer, so all I can do is update my info with virtually nothing. I'll probably withdraw after I mull this over for a few days.

And, FWIW a "hold" is such a non-decision decision. Holds suck.
