@JazzyGazelle: at this point I think they just telling you anything girl. lol
do they email for UR?
Is anyone elses ED applciation still under review?
legallyginger42
13:51
Yeah I’ve been in review since Oct and missed the second wave
Same, I'm expected to be deferred to RD but someone got in today so who knows
legallyginger42
14:03
Same. At this point I’m not sure if there’s still acceptances to be given for ED but we’ll see! Hopefully
There was a second wave already?
legallyginger42
14:25
I’m not sure the size of the “wave” but yeah, I’ve seen a few people get in ED this morning
Is it possible that the people who got in got in previously and only reporting now? last time they posted on instagram that a wave was coming out
legallyginger42
14:29
People posted that they got in today on the law school admissions reddit
Just saw, thank you
legallyginger42
14:37
Do you think there’s still hope for us? Lol
Not sure, their website says decisions until the 20th, so I am unsure what that means for us
If anyone has any insight from previous years please share!
They seem to be releasing ED decisions differently this year. Previously there was just one wave in mid December, but clearly this year had a pre-Thanksgiving wave
legallyginger42
14:43
Yeah it’s definitely been different from previous years. No news is better than an R but :/
Would our portal say decision finalized before we get our decision, or not necessarily?
legallyginger42
14:47
I’m not sure but I know it said decision finalized for people right before the first wave
Okay got it because I keep checking mine and its still under review lol
legallyginger42
14:54
I’m u/Gold-Medium9569 on Reddit if anyone wants to talk about apps and stuff lol
my portal just changed to decision finalized, anyone else?
legallyginger42
15:47
I got rolled over to RD
Did they email you? Or was it on your status checker?
But regardless thats better than a R!
legallyginger42
15:49
It was on my status checker! it said "no decision"
got it thanks!
