I'm all about reading into the implication and taking this as you received an acceptance letter today......

So is it safe to assume that if we do in fact receive a letter this week it's an acceptance?

Could be anything

Rejections don't come out this early, and nobody snail mails waitlist decisions, so its an acceptance (assuming its not spam).

Any 10/15ers check the mail yet????

I've been sleeping on the post office steps since a week before I submitted. Nothing yet.

That was a waste. They deliver via carrier pigeon.

That's what I was thinking. Also it looks like last year the first letters arrived 4 days after the postmark date. So I wouldn't get too excited about today.

Sorry for the general ignorance on my part, but when should I expect a response as an ED applicant? Georgetown's website seems to suggest that ED applicants would be notified of a decision within three weeks of submitting an application (insofar as he/she applied before Feb. 1), but I went complete on the LSAC website on 9/26 and I have heard nada.

Its complete from the status checker date not the LSAC website date. I submitted around then and went complete on 10/1 so I expect something by the end of the week. Also an ED applicant btw.

Unfortunately, I think you are right. That means I get to wait till Monday, damn.

So much for good news for anybody today....

[Manhattanman]

Next week, my ED comrades, stay thirsty...


On a serious note, and I know that this is just speculation, but how much does the alumni interview change the 3 week ED decision promise? Anyone have insight or info? Anecdotes maybe.

Good question. I have no idea really, although I think I remember reading about some really quick responses one way or another. I wonder if they still just snail mail it though which means at best four days after your interview. When did you go complete?

[TheThriller]

Did both of you get an interview offer?

[hunter.d]

Did both of you get an interview offer?

No I didn't and my status updated 10/17. Manhattan when did you get your interview invite and how did your statuses update?

Went complete on 10/1. Let me guess, so did you. I read that they will keep the ED timeline in mind, and will try to move quickly after hearing from the interviewer. Interview is this Tuesday. My interviewer has been really quick with e mail responses, so I'm assuming she'll be quick with sending my evaluation to g'town.

10/1--10/12. Interview email was sent on 10/12

Good luck man! Yeah, I got the three updates with 10/1 being my first complete. Looks like no interview for me, hopefully that's a good thing. Let us know how it goes Tuesday.
