Loyola LA - Has anyone heard back? Forum

[OneKnight]

The ED ppl should be hearing soon, but when I talked to their admissions ppl, they said they don't even start reviewing until after their college recruitment tour finishes, which was on Dec. 3. They probably started reviewing the ED apps this week, and RD ppl shouldn't expect anything until early feb at the earliest.

Did you read the thread? Some RDs have already received acceptances.

[OneKnight]

for the RDs who have a decision, what was your complete date?

Complete 11/17.

Decision mailed 12/4.

Decision received 12/5.

I live in LA.

good deal

I want a decision, I went complete 11/16....mmm

+1

+2

My status checker said that my decision letter was sent on Friday as well. I applied RD, though. I'm in San Diego, so I'm hoping that it comes tomorrow.

May I ask when did you apply and when you went complete?

[mbleak]

I sent in my application 10/26, and went complete 11/17.

To quote their status page:

"Received Date Notice: The Admissions office recently updated LSAT Scores, Letters of Recommendation and LSDAS Report information for a majority of our applicants. You may have noticed that the received date for these requirements has been updated to a more recent date (even if your file did not have any updates). This is completely normal and the new date does not put your application at any disadvantage."

yep

I submitted 11/30, went complete on 12/07. I imagine I'll be waiting a bit.

My status also says there was a decision made today, December 11th.

I applied on 11/6 and went complete on 11/17.

Applied ED. So, I'm crossing my fingers for good news!

[grouchynihilist]

great

^How are your numbers compared to Loyola's medians?

Additionally, I'm RD, though I would think that hearing this early in the cycle is good. Looking at threads from last year, no one was rejected from Loyola until March. And it just doesn't make sense to reject people this early when most applications aren't in.

I hope so. My LSAT pretty much sucked, Im a little below the 25th percentile, but my GPA is near the 75th percentile. I am also a URM (Hispanic/latina). Pretty good softs as well.

OP^ heard back

My status checker just changed to Decision...it's in the mail as of yesterday. Does anyone know if they send you merit scholarship info right away, or does that come separately? I would really like to know if I'm getting money...

[texaspecial88]

In today with $ 66,000 merit scholarship

Scholarship info comes with it. Seeing the numbers in your profile I think its safe to assume that you will get quite a large one; they saw fit to give me roughly 2/3 tuition.

Really, the building is pretty nice looking. It was designed by Frank Gehry

[ruleser]

Hmm, looks like they are trying to reel in some GPA's first - I was complete a while back, have heard nothing, in LA, way above 75th LSAT, above 25th GPA...

not sure if that's true. i was in your same situation, but maybe cause i was ED. i had a 164 but only a 3.1, 3.3 cumulative which is below the 25% GPA. i

[lstoller]

Does the status ever change to "in review" or does it just go straight from "complete" to "decision?"

from complete to decision

[lstoller]

also can someone get an official Loyola Law Class of 2013 going! looks like im the only one

Awesome. I hate Sunday's lack of letter-receiving potential...

Yeah, I did get it on that Monday though. I was mildly surprised since my current address in Ann Arbor is not exactly nearby.
