A quick definition of open nominations:

Open nominations is a term used in parliamentary law to describe the process of accepting nominations from the audience after a motion has been passed. This means that anyone in the room can suggest a person for a position or role, and their name will be considered alongside any other nominees. It's like a big brainstorming session where everyone gets a chance to contribute their ideas.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Open nominations refer to the process of accepting nominations from the floor during a parliamentary meeting or assembly. This process begins after a motion has been passed.

Example: During a student council meeting, a motion is passed to open nominations for the position of treasurer. Members of the council can then nominate any eligible candidate from the floor, and the nominations will be recorded and considered for the election.

Explanation: Open nominations allow for a democratic and inclusive process of selecting candidates for a position. It gives all members of the assembly an opportunity to nominate someone they believe is qualified for the role, rather than limiting the selection to a predetermined list of candidates.

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?
