Did the e-mail come via admissions@law.columbia.edu? Just want to make sure that my decision didn't go to spam or something. Thanks!

TBH, I've just been obsessively checking my spam folder too. And every other folder. Man, Columbia held someone (pandaaa) who got in YLS. They are being brutal this year.

Lol. This cycle will be the death of me.
At least you're in at Chicago! The way my cycle's going, I'll be the first 175/3.5+ to experience a total T6 shutout :lol:

Could just be me, but I'm getting the impression that everyone is being brutal this year... in the midst of a down cycle. I don't understand this game.

No, I agree? Especially an LSAT heavy school like Columbia...idk how they'll maintain their increase in numbers with seemingly a lot of >/=median's on hold.

They would have to get >1/6th of 174 + people this cycle to actually attend to maintain their numbers. That seems pretty unlikely, given how many people have to be absorbed by HYS/other T14's and people who are unacceptable due to c&F/absymal gpa.

Yes guys! At least some of us need to make it in.

Imagine we all have the same reviewer?

Edit: Wait a minute... who were your interviewers?

Speculation without evidence: schools are waiting for Feb LSAT retaker scores before making definitive decisions. They could be hoping for a 4th quarter bump for people who have already applied.
Hopefully, we see some record-breaking early waitlist offers and early march acceptances.

deans of admissions talk all the time. I don't think its unusual for her to be there.

Was this recently?

Also I'm sure they'll all in touch with each other bc didn't the deans from penn and Michigan do a seminar together?

The T14 select committee on intelligence needs to get to the bottom of this
