my status updated yesterday and dates are gone
I applied 12/9 to all 9 of my schools have not heard anything from any. Is this normal
I'm lowkey freaking out
@KeenHeartbreakingRattlesnake: I'm above both 75ths at GW, and I keep missing waves. It sucks because it's one of my top choices.
17:19

Predicting a wave tomorrow, 01/16

15:18
they said march 1 but that's a saturday so kinda doubt that
does anyone know if you can reapply next cycle for the presidential scholarship if you got in this year
basically to get more money
but by waiting a year
11:18
For those who received a merit scholarship so far, was it via email?
19:39
WL with 4.02 and 160, ughhhh
DefinitelyRobbingBanks
10:32
WL with a 3.85 and 162. It's all good! You will get the A where you are meant to be.
I’m reapplying next cycle after 2 years of work experience and raising my LSAT hopefully by a lot. Realistically how much does ED impact my chances
I’m doing a gpa addendum bc covid my first two years of undergrad wasn’t good for my mental and it shows
my date went away today but have not heard from them... this happen to anyone else?

@LegallyBlonde2025: Got an email from LSAC at 4:31 saying a school has updated my status. No status change there. I only applied to six schools, so it was easy to check each of my portals. Only difference was the date disappearing for GW
Mine says decision made but no email has come! Eek... my stomach is in knots
I thought I was getting a WL, I was not expecting a rejection LMAO
Like I was going anyway but I wanted my recap to be all yellow and green 😂
so is today only a WL/R day...
