Waitlisted.

Waitlisted -__-
75th LSAT, 25<GPA<50

This does not bode well for negotiating my UCLA scholarship, ugh

I'm anticipating the same. I don't think I'll be able to afford USC, either way, but I was hoping to gain some leverage for Irvine. Still hoping for the best.

Good luck! I think so far it's looking good for you because mine didn't have "Decision Finalized", it just went straight to Wailisted (Unless DF was there for only 10 minutes or so, because I was checking...lol)

Waitlisted under status. Probably going to withdraw unless I hear soon. Good luck to everyone still in FR/DF.

Waitlisted via status checker as well. Good luck to everyone! Going to withdraw when they send me the official notification!

Classic Splitter: LSAT>75th, GPA <25th

About 3-4 weird acceptances to people below the 50th on both GPA/LSAT according LSN and are not URM. Are they dropping their medians?

I mean they could've taken them for other factors besides their numbers

Blasphemer!

Waitlisted just now under "status"

Complete: 12/4, CR1: 1/27: CR2: 2/8, FR: 3/1, Decision today

Sorry to hear that. Mine still just says decision finalized. I'm paralyzed with fear

Good luck! (to you and everyone else still waiting) I think DF is a good sign

Just wanted to wish you all the best of luck if you're still waiting on a decision or on WL.

I was @50th on LSAT and below 25th on GPA and got in. Most likely cause of softs and my GPA in context of my transcript is pretty good

just went decision finalized, maybe within the last hour or so. would be GREAT if i could find out within the next hour and a half before i get on a 6 hour plane ride -___-

[Purplepen]

Anyone else get a mysterious email from J2 Cloud Services in Hollywood (eFax company), or is that just me? What a weird coincidence that makes the wait even worse.

Yeah I did??? i didn't think it had to do with apps, but now I'm not sure?

[ktbee]

Is getting in off the WL and getting a decent scholly to make it mildly affordable as unlikely as I think it is? Or is it even more unlikely than that?

Waitlisted today - far above 75% LSAT, far below 25% GPA. Such is the sad life of a splitter.

sorry to hear dude :/ do you mind sharing if you got an email, or did your status just change?

It's a pretty crappy company based on a quick online search, so I would be astonished if USC utilized them. Probably just poorly-timed spam mail.

I wasn't expecting anything from USC today, but it's crazy that we both got the same spam lol

Just a status change. Thanks - I'm keeping up, got a few great offers so I'm not in the woodshed just yet.

[strongbadge]

Waitlisted today too. No email, just checked my status checker. I'm withdrawing my app today.

Does anybody how rejections are communicated? Being stuck this long at decision finalized without an email is making me think I should expect a rejection letter.

[lemontea]

Waitlisted today on status checker. Also got the weird J2 Cloud Services spam.

I think I remember one person mentioning a rejection via snail mail.

Don't lose hope yet! Wish you the best of luck!

Thanks, I really appreciate it. Trying to keep a good mix of optimism and realism.
