So I just checked the status checker. It says the decision has been mailed.
Anyone else have the same thing?
It's not really my top choice, but I'm so nervous. I feel sick.

Same here. I feel good about it though, as I'm pretty sure it's their first round of acceptances. I find it hard to believe that that would be rejections.

They could be rejections.
OP did you apply EA? (I did)

Good Luck!
My file stayed at complete. They didn't change it to say decision, just added it under the mailings

ditto!
As for the EA, I applied 10/23. So I guess it was EA...
LSN tells me that they sent out their first round of acceptances mid-late December for the past 2-3 years. I don't know if that's a good sign or not.
Does anyone know if
a) they send the decisions to the permanent or current address?
b) if it's just a plain envelope or a big packet?

I went complete 10/26 according to the checker.

My status checker says "decision mailed" as well. My status (upper right) still reads "Complete File." I applied EA and was complete in late October.
I would hope that the first round of communication they're sending out (unless I'm missing some activity from them already this cycle) wouldn't be rejections, but I guess you never know. My numbers are right at their 75th percentiles.
Good luck!!

I could be wrong, but I feel as thought it had to be indicated on the app if you wanted to be considered for EA?
I don't know either of those things, but I am in Boston so hope to have my decision tomorrow. I'll let you know!

You're right. They address the difference between EA and RD on their website, and you have to check the box stating you want to be considered for EA.

Really? I thought Northeastern in particular just sent out decisions, (whether acceptance or rejection), by regular mail.

Sorry to double post, but just to edit I applied RD. Just looked at the LSAC pdf of my file.

It's lucky only if we get accepted. Otherwise, I think you're the lucky one.

I sent my application on October 23rd and went complete on the 26th. I just looked at the status checker and it states the decision letter was mailed today, 12/07. I'm very interested in NUSL, so I'm hoping this is good news. I applied RD, so I didn't expect to hear from them any time soon. Now I'm nervous...

My status checker looks the same, still says "Complete File" as of 11/06, originally sent my app in on 10/26. They're one of my top choices, if not my top choice overall.

I just checked too, I applied on December 3rd and was complete on the 4th and the decision was mailed on December 7th, I am somewhat scared that I was rejected because I made a stupid mistake on my PS for them, although my lsat score is above their 75th %, but we will see.

That seems ridiculously fast for a decision. Are they moving at lighting speed or what?

Applied RD on 11/2; complete on 11/6; current status is, "file complete;" DECISION MAILED. Hm... we shall see! Good luck everyone!

Now I'm a little worried mine doesn't say Decision Mailed

If they had a binding ED program I would have done it, I want to go that bad.
