And I sort of have a bad feeling about this because all of the people who have been accepted off reserve had no change with their statuses online. Instead, they got phone calls. I think that they are going to start rejecting or waitlisting a lot of people from reserve now, and that some of our statuses will have new complete/decision dates.

Alrighty, whatup reservees, here's the 411 as of 5 seconds ago:

The woman who answered the phone does not know whether or not the class is full, but she does know that many reserve candidates are being re-reviewed right now. As of a couple weeks ago, there was a handful of spots available, and so some offers went out, but she does not know the status of the class at the moment. She then offered to look up my file and see if it has been pulled. After checking, she said it has been pulled and is currently in review. She said decisions will be reached on all files very soon, and these decisions will come in the form of letters, though if there are anymore acceptances to be made, those will be offered via email.

As I said, she checked my personal file, so I'd GREATLY appreciate it if you guys could hold off for awhile on calling to check your personal status because she knows who I am and will know who just inspired all of TLS to flood her phone line....

Hope this helps!

I don't know, and if we should expect that, I don't want to know. I'm happy to be done with status checker madness. Let's just assume it won't change.

on TLS, 7 people were offered a spot off of reserve and 5/7 have declined the offer...it would make sense that they still have spots open...i'm sure at this point in the admission cycle they know exactly how many they need to add in order to fill the class, and probably didn't accept more applicants, with that first batch of people off of reserve, than they would have room for.

I've already committed myself to the idea that nothing is going to happen until Monday. If the deposits are due today, they really have no reason to call us today. So relax everybody!

They told me they will be reviewing people until the end of the month in batches, but said there's no particular way that they are put together (standard answer). And that my file is not yet under review, but that it will go in the next batch next week.

But yeah, I'm with gogators on there probably not being much action today since people have until today to pay their deposit.
