thanks guys. I won't send in anything and just wait. According to lsn I should be an admit but its possible that they just don't like me enough. I'll wait and see.

The reason for not doing a LOCI just yet is that I am on 5 different holds/waitlists already and too busy doing LOCIs for those haha.

Best of luck. According to LSN and common sense, I'm an auto-deny, so I've invested in my other schools at this point haha.

Status just changed to Decision Finalized...if there's no email along with that does it mean it's not a ding?

I got mine the morning after and I know a lot of other recent admits did as well. I think it could be anywhere from then to a few weeks out. Here's hoping you hear soon! Congrats on the admit.

USC Law spring break is on the 18th (next monday). Would not be surprised if they start a massive rejection bloodbath this Friday (assuming the Admissions Office is closed or operating at limited capacity).

Also curious, if admits are notified via email then a rejection letter might be sent via snailmail?

I have a decision finalized as of yesterday, but no listing for seat deposit information on the status checker. In all honesty, my LSAT is the only thing worth while to them and I would be stoked if a snagged a WL. Anyone want to shed some light this?

I received an email around 10-15 minutes after seeing "Decision Finalized." Furthermore, this will be the last update your status checker will receive. From there you will either be communicated to by email or snail mail. Good luck!

The waiting must be horrible. GOod luck. I saw decision finalized and got an email within the hour..

This was a few weeks ago. So they may be a bit slower today. Not trying to get everyone anxious if it's longer than an hour. Good luck. NOthing you can do now but hope for the best
