compromis proper

Read a random definition: fructus separati

A quick definition of compromis proper:

Compromis Proper: An agreement between two or more countries to ask someone else to help them solve a problem they have. This person could be an arbitrator, a group of arbitrators, or an international court. It's like asking a teacher or a parent to help you and your friend solve a disagreement. There are two types of compromis proper: ad hoc compromis, which is when countries ask for help with a specific problem, and general compromis, which is when countries agree to ask for help with any problem that might come up in the future.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Compromis proper is an agreement between two or more countries to submit an existing dispute to the jurisdiction of an arbitrator, an arbitral tribunal, or an international court. This is also known as ad hoc compromis or special agreement.

Example: If two countries have a disagreement over a border dispute, they may enter into a compromis proper to have the issue resolved by an international court.

Explanation: In this example, the two countries have agreed to submit their dispute to an international court, which will make a decision on the matter. This is an example of a compromis proper because it is a specific agreement between the two countries to resolve a particular dispute.

Another type of compromis is a general compromis, which is an agreement between countries to submit all or a definite class of disputes that may arise between them to an arbitral institution, a court, or an ad hoc arbitral tribunal. This is done by concluding a general arbitration treaty or by including an arbitration clause in a treaty.

Example: The United States and Canada have a general compromis in place that allows them to submit any disputes related to the boundary waters between the two countries to the International Joint Commission.

Explanation: In this example, the two countries have a general compromis in place that covers any disputes related to the boundary waters between them. This is an example of a general compromis because it covers a class of disputes that may arise between the two countries.

I have not had a date change either for Mich but I've seen people get in without one so who knows
I applied 9/25 to like 6 schools and some (Houston) have no date change yet so dw
soapy

But do people get in without addresses going long?
WorthlessAttractiveZombie

soapy

Ah. I didn't. Looking back, my Mich supplement kind of sucks, so there's that

The "date changes" at Michigan really don't mean anything. We had to do them in undergrad admissions whenever a Georgia applicant picked the country instead of the state, because we'd have to remove the TOEFL requirement and reassign the application from the international application readers.

Classy, does that mean they may look at your application, and that look doesn't necessarily trigger any date change?

What a good day to get into law school

@soapy: I don't know for sure about the law school. For undergrad, once the application is complete, it's assigned to a reader the following Monday. If we had to make any changes, it's because a reader saw something that needed to be changed and the application needed to be re-read after that change.

Ahh, got it. Thank you for the insight!

You're welcome. FWIW, I have no idea what's up with the address changes. We didn't have to do any of that, except for the Georgia state vs country kinds of things.

I've heard it theorized that some schools will change the address from "St." --> "Street" as they prepare to send out admissions packets. That's the rumor, anyways.
i think it just indicates a change in status like under review or stages of review
my stanford address went long as soon as it was marked complete lmao
soapy

I saw some Reddit adcom say that they can see any time we refresh the status checker; I wonder if it's a red flag if an applicant's checked it like 50 times in a day?
soapy
10:25
Also, can we send another LoR to a school that we've already applied to?
soapy
10:26
Or another essay?
10:30
i'll allow it
