Read a random definition: entire benefit

A quick definition of admittance:

Admittance refers to the act of entering a building or place with permission. It can also refer to the historical practice of giving seisin of a copyhold estate, which was a type of land tenure that required the tenant to provide services to the lord of the manor. Copyhold estates were abolished in 1922, and the land was converted into freehold or leasehold land. A privileged copyhold was a type of copyhold that was subject only to the customs of the manor and not affected by the nonconforming dictates of the current lord.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Admittance refers to the act of entering a building or locality with permission to do so. It can also refer to the historical act of giving seisin of a copyhold estate.

Example: When you go to a concert, you need admittance to enter the venue. This means you need a ticket or some other form of permission to enter.

Explanation: The example illustrates the first definition of admittance, which refers to the act of entering a building or locality with permission. In this case, the concert venue is the building, and the ticket is the permission required for admittance.

Example: In the past, copyhold estates were transferred through the act of admittance, which involved giving seisin of the estate in the lord's court.

Explanation: This example illustrates the historical definition of admittance, which refers to the act of giving seisin of a copyhold estate. In the past, copyhold estates were a type of base tenure that required the tenant to provide customary services to the manor. When the estate was transferred, the transaction was recorded on the court rolls, and the transferee was given a copy of the entry to prove their title. This process was known as admittance.

as far as i know, that information is simply for data collection purposes
^
13:34
i don't think it has a detrimental effect on your chances of admission
13:34
but also you don't need to tell them anything so lol
Can y'all help me understand something lol. What does it mean for an app to "go complete"? Is that when the school has reviewed it and made a decision?
13:35
Na, it's when they have all the required information
Gotcha. So what would be the difference between received and completed?
Does complete entail like the app + LORs?
13:35
correct
That makes sense. Thank you!
13:36
complete basically means they've acknowledged receipt and it's ready to go under review whenever they start the deliberative process

I still haven't had Chicago or Cornell go complete, but I think that's just how they be

How do you know when an application is complete? Is it on LSAC or the school's portal?
13:43
it'll be on the school-specific portal
Quillinit
13:44
when they opened
Quillinit
13:45
they both say something along the lines of "received and waiting to be processed"
13:48
anyone have good resources for revising a personal statement for reuse after applying with it last cycle?
13:49
Any guesses when Cornell and Penn CRS fee waivers will go out?
13:51
@Quillinit: from my recollection, chicago and cornell collapse complete/UR1 into a single step, so they may simply not be ready to begin reviewing applications
13:52
i think it's fair to assume, barring a handful of schools like UVA, most schools won't begin reviewing applications in earnest until the beginning of next month at the earliest, so it wouldn't be surprising to hear that applications are just sitting in the queue
13:54
@oakenrays: I was just gonna write a new one personally but I think you want to make it recognizably different from your previous PS
13:56
@baddestbunny: definitely agree that some revision and additional information is warranted but, my why law is the same... I guess just tell the same story in a different way
14:03
ugh fineeee I'll write a new stupid essay
14:07
yeah I told my last essay about a formative experience and am trying to update it now to be about what I’ve learned since that experience
recently wrapped up interview
i re-wrote my PS this cycle when I reapplied
fire drill at work
