Similar to you, waitlisted international, but no interview - applied mid-nov, above average GPA, LSAT above the 75th. I've had completely dead air from them though, think i got UR'd once in January and that was it.

I submitted 3 weeks ago and my application still hasn't gone complete (CAS report hasn't gone through). I know that others have had to wait about that long, but at what point do I reach out about it?

It took me a little over a month. Chicago is a bit slower than other schools. I just wouldn't reach out until it reaches like more than 5 weeks

Chicago admissions twitter posted 9m ago they just "sent out another round" of decisions- think we can read from the implication there that no more decisions are coming out today?

Congrats to those who got in! Hope to see you at ASW.

Sorry for those of you who got dinged. It wasn't meant to be. You're gonna end up at a wonderful school and I hope the rest of your cycle is wonderful.

For those of you WLed - there's hope. Chicago does pull from the WL. If you know you don't want to go, don't hold a spot for someone who is wanting Chicago. Withdraw on behalf of your fellow waiters.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

Fact on the waitlist--my boyfriend got pulled off of it in June 2015 (he's C/O 2018). He's now on the law review board for next year. WL is still in the game.

I had also applied for the doctoroff - but I didn't see anything about getting into/not getting into that program in the e-mail they sent today.

Anybody have any insights/wild speculations about what the deal is with the Doctoroff?

My wild speculation is that russian hackers intercepted the doctoroff admissions e-mail
White dude with a ~3.7, 174, just admitted too. We're twins!

I also applied for the Doctoroff -- checked out the admitted student site and it looks like there's a separate interview process for it that candidates will be contacted for in "the coming weeks."

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
