Just in via phone call. omfg

Congrats!

Sooo... did anyone else hear anything?

[ssanonymous]

I think last year only a few TLSers heard before winter break. I think updates will be scarce.

only common thread i could notice amongst the five: stanford yale penn dartmouth dartmouth... they're going for diversity

Combined with stellar numbers, I'm sure. Otherwise I'm about to punt a Hail Mary Yale's way.

Wow... I should have written a DS about attending State school! Lol I wonder if there's more URMs or state school attendees...

Awesome. Mind keeping us updated on the facebook group? Seems like there hasn't been many updates on LSN, so it's hard to keep track. Congrats again!

Lol @ the diversity. Yeah, my buddy says the bulk of the students at Yale came from top schools.

I'm curious as to why the twitter hasn't been updated. They usually let people know when they're making calls.

This for the people who are still "Intending to Apply" on LSN because of that goddamn 250:

So do you guys think it's too late to bother with a hail mary to Yale? With a 3.9X and a 171, plus no great ideas for a 250 and coming from a "normal" school, I didn't bother. But I have three days off for Christmas so I could send one out just so I'd have entirely papered the T14.

If the app fee won't be a burden, why not?

[Starships]

Amsong, I know a guy who is a 1L there now with 171 and high 3.8's. It could change your life, I say go for it

Oh, not me. I did apply. Wish I had those numbers! But alas, I was responding to the poster above me.

[Eichörnchen]

Thanks guys! I guess I'm kind of a dumbass to have been too intimidated to apply back in Oct. Oh well! I'm sure life will be OK either way. I'll send my app this Christmas - maybe that'll bring luck? May the baby Jesus smile upon my app.

It's never too late to apply unless the deadline has passed. There is no advantage to applying early to YLS, other than possibly receiving a decision earlier. Apply, but wait until you're happy with your 250.

Final day for this round of acceptances?

It was refreshing to see that the later application opening date and Hurricane Sandy did not alter Yale's admissions decisions very much.

That's so funny! But... why is it hosted on Columbia's official site?

Damn this 250.

To clarify: Columbia gives its students free web hosting. I don't have any legitimate use for it, and I couldn't fit the damn thing in a .gif. This is in no way an official Columbia anything.

Does Yale Law interview applicants? Why isn't this explicitly addressed on their website?

[Anonymous4444]

no interviews

[ssanonymous]

Almost no movement from Yale and SLS. Odd. Maybe Asha & co. are avoiding all the TLSers and LSNers.

Good luck to everyone in the new year!
