Link to last year's thread: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 7&t=228034

Last year, first movement on 5/8 but they also received WL email earlier than us.


Also, haven't sent in LOCI yet because I have nothing new to add (out of school; working)

Haha, was wondering if this thread would kick up at some point considering there's a lot of us. Thank you for making it.

Though if I'm not mistaken it seems a lot were fed up by how long it took this year to get an answer from UR1 to DLSNever and may have withdrawn? Beyond that it seems like the odds aren't too bad generally, judging from the stats you laid out?

Sames. And just working menial jobs at the moment to pay the bills to boot. I'm hoping this doesn't hurt in the end.

Checking in - it looks like NYU generally has decent movement off the WL.

Thanks for compiling all that data.

Now Im worried. I sent them a short email with just my info and said I would stay on the waitlist. I have not received any email and my status is still DLS. Anyone else? Should I be worried?

I haven't received an email back either and I sent it on Wednesday but I wouldn't be too worried. They seem to take their time with everything.

FYI, it does change. Mine says "confirmed on the waitlist" + I have it in my mailings section. I am sure it is a matter of time until everyone's SC changes. Don't sweat it.

Checking in. WL'd on 04/21, but status still says DLS. I'm crossing every finger for NYU, but if not this, G-town for me.

Checking in.

Has anyone visited the school since getting waitlisted? I'm definitely going to write an LOCI, but I don't want to the adcom to confuse my thirstiness for annoyance :mrgreen:

Checking in as well. What's the best way to send a LOCI? Snail mail or email?
