A quick definition of lodesman:

Term: Lodesman

Definition: A lodesman is a person who helps guide a big ship by traveling in a small boat in front of it. They help the ship avoid obstacles and stay on course. They also help bring the ship to a safe place to dock once it reaches port. In the past, lodesmen had a special job in certain ports called the cinque ports.

A more thorough explanation:

A lodesman is a person who directs a ship's course from a small boat traveling in front of the larger ship rather than from the ship itself. They are also responsible for taking the ship to a berth after a pilot had brought it into port.

  • The lodesman guided the ship safely through the narrow channel.
  • After the pilot brought the ship into port, the lodesman took over and brought it to its berth.

These examples illustrate how a lodesman is responsible for guiding a ship's course and bringing it safely to its destination.

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.

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

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?
