A quick definition of legal signature:

A legal signature is a person's name or mark written by that person or at their direction, used to authenticate a document. It can be a handwritten signature, a digital code, or an electronic symbol associated with a document. A facsimile signature is a mechanically or photographically reproduced signature, while a private signature is one made on a document without witnesses or notarization. An unauthorized signature is one made without actual, implied, or apparent authority, including forgeries.

A more thorough explanation:

A legal signature is a person's name or mark written by that person or at their direction. It is used to authenticate a document and can be any name, mark, or writing used with the intention of doing so.

For example, when signing a contract, a person's signature at the end of the document is their legal signature. This signature shows that they agree to the terms of the contract and that they are the person who signed it.

Another example is a digital signature, which is a secure, digital code attached to an electronically transmitted message that uniquely identifies and authenticates the sender. This type of signature is important for electronic commerce and is a key component of many electronic message-authentication schemes.

Overall, a legal signature is a way to verify the authenticity of a document and ensure that the person who signed it is the one who intended to do so.

For reference, mine changed to "Application under committee review" on the 14th.
Huh. It might mean that a decision has been made.
That also happened to me initially though. I went under review in late October. Then message disappeared in mid-November, and then reappeared last week.

Ughhhhhh
Hope it changes back soon!

From most Reddit pages, it seems that WashU does a poor job at updating their status checker and treat it more as a checklist for whether applications are complete. Some folks have gotten an email with the A, but their status checker still says under review.

For people who got their decision from Fordham, is it being sent in staggard emails or did you get a call.

I am sick of law schools sending out emails without the option to unsubscribe. It's straight up illegal and shows you the quality of education you will get there.

Lmaoo the Zoom seminars
GW is requesting my fall transcripts (I had intended to apply during the fall semester when I requested them, but had three hurricanes-one with water rescues in my neighborhood-an emergency 2 1/2 week trip to Colorado to say goodbye to my mother-in-law, then I received my service dog, which required another eight days away from school for training), so I ended up applying this month. If I request new transcripts through LSAC, does each school I applied to receive them? I'm hoping to not have to write an addendum of why all of my narrative evaluations mention my busy schedule or that I had to miss classes and whatnot. (My school doesn't do letter grades.)

Yes, they receive them automatically from LSAC
@AnotherUsername1: Thank you! :)
