The thread I've always wanted to create.

Got the call from Dean Faye Deal this morning. A dream come true. Who's with me?

Wow - not even close to with you. Had a problem with an international transcript and just went complete this week.

That being said, major congratulations are in order. Take the rest of the day off.

I had the same problem... my transcript just arrived at LSAC when I ordered it a month ago (and submitted in October). So I'm not even complete yet.

And congrats Crackberry! I hope you're planning on celebrating hard tonight :D

Way to go CB! I've been following the HLS and Boalt threads and so sending good Stanford vibes your way.

IF I get in, I doubt it'd be so early since my Dean's Cert only showed up two weeks ago. SLS is really the only thing that could mix up my decision making at this point though, so maybe a rejection would just make things easier?

Appreciate it. I have been totally unproductive at work today. Got the call about 35 minutes after I walked in the door and haven't done anything work-related since.

+1. When Harvard called, I simply abandoned work for the next two days and had a humongous one-man party.

Hi All,

Sorry if I've completed missed the boat on this question, but is this the earlier/first set of acceptances?

I got an application complete email Nov 4, and wonder if I should have gotten any other communications since, or if its just wait an month and get an accept call or deny email.

Thanks!

No, you're good. The next thing that you should expect is decision notification. FWIW, I completed almost exactly at the same time as you.

Thank you. To quote the Black Eyed Peas, "I got a feeling that tonight's gonna be a good, good night."
