feud

Read a random definition: waiver of immunity

A quick definition of feud:

A feud is when someone gets land from someone else, but they have to do things for the person who gave them the land. Sometimes, families or groups of people can have a feud with each other, which means they are very angry and might fight because of something that happened in the past. This used to be allowed a long time ago, but now it's not okay to fight with people just because you don't like them.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A feud is a heritable estate in land conveyed from a feudal superior to a grantee or tenant, held on the condition of rendering services to the superior. It can also refer to an enmity or private war existing between families or clans, especially as a result of a murder.

Examples:

  • Impartible feud: An indivisible feud; a feud not subject to partition.
  • Improper feud: A nonmilitary feud; a feud that is base or servile in nature.
  • Proper feud: A feud based on military service.
  • Blood feud: A state of hostility between families in which one family seeks to avenge the killing of one of its members by killing a member of the other family.

The examples illustrate the different types of feuds that existed historically, such as military and non-military feuds, as well as the concept of blood feud, where families seek revenge for the killing of one of their own members. These feuds were often violent and could last for generations, leading to ongoing conflicts between families or clans.

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?

@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.

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

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?

Also, can we send another LoR to a school that we've already applied to?
