Same here ... Don't they send decisions by email?
Acceptances come via email...WL and Ding come via snail mail. There's some inconsistency about whether or not the lack of seat deposit info once you go decision made 100% indicates a WL or Ding this year.

Oh dear ... I live abroad and mail in country is really unreliable... Any other internationals who got their dings/wl over mail mind sharing how long it took for it to arrive? Why don't they just email it?

They may email internationals! I'm not sure, honestly. I hope someone else knows!

That's great! I wonder if it's a WL wave or if all kinds of decisions are coming out. Good luck with everything!

If you don't mind me asking, when did you get your acceptance email? I got my email, but I'm dying to see what they offer me!
Email the 17th, packet the 23rd. I got another email the day after I got my offer from this really cute student ambassador but she never responded to the question I asked her lmao.
thanks! LMAO- did you tell her you got that scholarship $? Maybe then she will come around!
I didn't lol but she is the kinda white girl that'll make you want to go to Notre Dame and never look back lol.
Inappropriate much? On what planet is it appropriate to speak about a woman like that? Not this one. Clearly, you are capable of speaking about someone that is being helpful to you in a respectful and professional manner. So why not do that instead?

News flash, there is nothing inappropriate about that. There is nothing wrong with calling someone attractive. You need to relax and stop being offended by everything.

Goodness gracious... I truly hope that we end up at the same law school. Being intellectually challenged is an essential part of progression. Law school will be great for you, because it will teach you to find a solution when you would normally find offense.

I didn't find it offensive, but no small irony in someone upset at being challenged responding in such a manner... Lol at Oooh that white woman is hot being a great "intellectual challenge" in the first place.

For the folks that *did* get a scholly bump.. are you expecting any more bumps due to full-riders (or close to it) withdrawing and going elsewhere?

Wish I would've gotten a bump :oops: I'm still holding out hope

Did ND release their 2016 employment numbers? I know WUSTL had a very nice bump.

Hey all, this is a waitlist related post. I cannot find any statistics regarding the waitlist at ND, when I called them they told me they generally offer about 100 students spots off the waitlist and 30 usually commit to attending the law school. Is there any information regarding how many people are on the waitlist or what the acceptance rate off the waitlist is? I'm really hoping to get in. Thanks.

Just received a slight increase of scholarship few hours after submitting the confirmation of enrollment form! :D
I didn't expect this as I appealed in early March and never heard from them since, but looks like it worked!

I'm still holding out for a bump. Think there may be a wave today ?

Got a tiny bump just now. Submitted appeal form mid March. Wish they weren't so stingy with the $ I really like NDLS.

I applied toward the end of the cycle. Been getting status date changes a lot recently (4-5 times in the past two weeks). Does this mean anything?

Also any idea of my chances: GPA<25%, LSAT>50%, ivy league champ and medalist at national championships for one of HYP

I already withdrew after seeing such a tiny boost. Liked it there a lot but I can't justify going there financially when objectively better schools have a cheaper COA.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
