you have decision rendered too?
If so, we've probably been rejected. I received no email either!

No, I have no decision rendered or anything. I would say it's because I went complete late, but people who went complete after I did have received notifications of all types. I am borderline, so I don't mind waiting quietly in one way to try and slip into a waitlist, but on the other hand I think I am just waiting to find out I am being rejected, and that sucks.

Anyone just get the email from USD to let admitted students know that they've received a lot of requests for deposit extensions due to accepted students wanting to see the US News rankings when they come out?
I wonder if that has anything to do with their rise in rankings? Haha.
really! i submitted my deposit already
when are the new rankings out?.. do you guys know?

So have they officially extended the deposit deadline, or is still on for tomorrow?

Thank you for the info.
Sigh. Looks like we will be going into May.

Good, because my letter still has not arrived at my house. It would be mean to find out I was admitted only to find out that the seat deadline had passed.

I am from San Diego and haven't gotten anything in the mail, DR 4/13 but received the status change on 4/12. I'm expecting a ding, cause I got no email about the extension. Though at the same time I figure if you were accepted you would automatically be granted an extension, cause the two other schools I got accepted into indicated a specific deposit due date OR x amount of days from receiving your acceptance letter.
I'm about to send in my deposit to Hawaii tomorrow (glad they jumped out of T3 seeing as how they were there because of a reporting error), so it would greatly be appreciated if it arrived before I get to the post office.

Why would they admit you only to tell you that you can't pay your deposit and thus not be able to attend? That doesn't make sense. Of course they'd give you an extension to pay it by a certain date. The only people they're inconveniencing with this extension are the ones still waiting for their decisions and, to a lesser degree, those who are on the waitlist.

Whoa, so you didn't have any updates for 5 months??? Guess I don't feel bad about still being stuck at 1/11...
km23 wrote:Okay so.....
11/02/09 original app complete date
4/09/10 first date change
4/10-4/12 blank status
4/13/10 new date change
randomly changed back to 11/02/09 again
4/14/10 DECISION RENDERED.
I applied PT. I will let you guys know what happens in the next few days (in San Fran so should get here this week).

yup pretty much. I almost forgot I applied to USD because they took so long. It was the first school I sent an app to since it didn't require LORs and at that time, mine were not ready (they have been in since late November though). My GPA for PT is above their 75%tile (3.65 when theirs is 3.39 or something around that for PT), but my LSAT is more near their 25%tile so I am not sure if I have a great shot. It doesn't help my confidence that they waited so long to give me a decision.
When it comes to USD Status Checker - we're in the exact same boat. I went complete in November and received no status changes until April also. 4/13/10 DECISION RENDERED.
I also applied for part time except we're reversed - my LSAT is above their 75% tile and my GPA is below their 25%. G'luck, today's a new day. Hopefully we hear something!

Congrats. I think that might be the group that is still hanging around. The PT or PT as a second choice group. That is great, good luck.

I'm PT as well, so I guess I'll be seeing you. Should we start a head count for PTers on TLS?

I'm one of the 4/12 (4/13) DR folks and live about 15-20mins from USD. Checked the mail today and still nothing. Thought I'd save a few people's nerves who are still waiting for the mailman.

For those who were accepted did you get any deposit numbers on your status checker page? I know some schools update this and some schools do not... Could be a quick answer for those of us that are waiting on letters
