13:55 nota999: @KingTradeMark: If you hover over it, it is Michigan not Miami
13:55 harrystylesismyking: @GaryGarrison: when it happened to me i posted in here and the consensus was it takes one more day to get the decision. I also didn't get it until 6 pm pacific on that second day
13:55 PierPissolini: Yeah the UMich and UMiami thing has been driving me wild
13:55 UnbecomingQuackPademelon: @nota999: At least someone calls it like it is. Ty nota.
13:55 nota999: You can see from the link preview
13:56 GaryGarrison: @harrystylesismyking: thanks for the info
13:56 harrystylesismyking: yep, best of luck
13:56 PierPissolini: "Saturday rolls around and you need a date, call yourself up, you're always gonna be around"
13:56 PierPissolini: Liked that from Tom Waits
13:56 xoxoggirl: @nota999: will you be in dc by the last weekend of may?
13:57 nota999: @xoxoggirl: That's the exact weekend I'm moving in actually
13:57 NBLSA: Wait just wanted to chime in as someone born and raised in Seattle that I would not describe WSU as "respected" lmao
13:57 nota999: My lease starts May 28
13:57 xoxoggirl: That’s pretty beautiful bc that’s the exact day I will be arriving in the dc area
13:58 nota999: @NBLSA: I was also born and raised in Seattle, and yeah there's a rivalry but calling WSU "halfway between community college and real school" would be overkill
13:58 NBLSA: Oh yeah that doesn't really apply
13:58 xoxoggirl: Just for the weekend finally meeting my nephew for his first bday but if you’re gonna be in town I could probably make an excuse to go get dc brunch (the best brunch)
13:58 nota999: We'll see how beat I am and how busy I might be unpacking and getting groceries and stuff like that, but hopefully I'll be able to squeeze in a brunch yeah
13:59 xoxoggirl: I’ll be busy too but it may be our only opportunity to hang and I’d love that! We can play by ear :)
13:59 nota999: For sure for sure
14:02 ThisIsTheEnd: Is there any way to find out if a schools deposits were strong?? Call them?
14:06 pettyboi: ^^
14:06 Asparagine: @ThisIsTheEnd: yeah, it would probably need to come from the admissions office
14:08 IndustriousStrangeImpala: Is it bad form to call and ask??
14:10 DevilishSkillfulBracke: Just got an email from CU Boulder, sounds like they are full after seat deposits
14:10 DevilishSkillfulBracke: Idk if anyone wanted that info or not lol
14:10 LSHopeful2021: i feel like some law schools are scrambling today as they face the results of their yield lol
14:12 SlightlyFearlessQuokka: has anyone gone UR2 at ASU? my status just updated for UR2 and it seems only a few other people have had that happen
14:12 LSHopeful2021: kinda hurt to watch ucla's deposit deadline pass last night... was def my top choice for a good chunk of this cycle
14:12 LSHopeful2021: @SlightlyFearlessQuokka: that usually means a decision that day or the next day
14:13 harrystylesismyking: ^^
14:13 GottaSplit: Same @SlightlyFearlessQuokka
14:13 harrystylesismyking: that happened to me earlier this week
14:13 goldgators: I just got rejected by BU :( after posting wondering here like 30 min ago
14:13 harrystylesismyking: i heard back the next day at around 6 pm pacific time
14:13 harrystylesismyking: sorry gold :(
14:14 UnbecomingQuackPademelon: @DevilishSkillfulBracke: Seriously??? I've had an app in w/them w/zero decision and they are full??
14:14 SlightlyFearlessQuokka: even if its a friday? lol
14:14 harrystylesismyking: oooo i didn't think about that
14:14 SlightlyFearlessQuokka: pain
14:14 SlightlyFearlessQuokka: but thank you for answering though!! haha
14:15 harrystylesismyking: their seat deposit already happened so i am not sure how much of a rush they are in? whether it means you'd hear back today vs. monday, I am not sure. Hope it's today!!
14:15 DevilishSkillfulBracke: @UnbecomingQuackPademelon: yepp. at least according to the email. They said they would get back in touch with me after second seat deposit (early may)
14:16 SlightlyFearlessQuokka: @harrystylesismyking: thank you so much!! :)
14:16 UnbecomingQuackPademelon: @DevilishSkillfulBracke: Ugh. Were you on the WL at least?
14:17 IndustriousStrangeImpala: @DevilishSkillfulBracke: can you post the email?
14:17 SlightlyFearlessQuokka: and also congrats on the great scholarship from Loyola Chicago, it's one of my top choices if they let me in :))
14:17 DevilishSkillfulBracke: @IndustriousStrangeImpala: no, im in a hold. I will gimme a sec
14:18 IndustriousStrangeImpala: @SlightlyFearlessQuokka: I think they are full for the time being
14:19 DevilishSkillfulBracke: @IndustriousStrangeImpala: We still very much hope that we will be able to offer you a spot in our incoming class, and remain thoroughly impressed with your qualifications and believe you would be an excellent addition to our community. At this time, though, our class remains full following our first seat deposit deadline last Friday (April 9). We are going to continue to hold on rendering a decision on your application until we know who has decided to join us following our second seat deposit de
14:20 DevilishSkillfulBracke: deadline of May 7. At that point, we will know if we can extend more offers of admission. Thank you for considering us for your legal education. We will be in touch soon.
14:20 UnbecomingQuackPademelon: @DevilishSkillfulBracke: How frustrating!
14:21 IndustriousStrangeImpala: Damn not the email I got hahaha
14:21 DeafeningHellishPug: lol i sent my app for Boulder back in November and haven't heard a single thing
14:21 DevilishSkillfulBracke: @IndustriousStrangeImpala: what did your sayy??
14:21 SlightlyFearlessQuokka: why do you think Loyola Chicago is full? I kind of thought so too, but im wondering if you have heard something more concrrete
14:22 harrystylesismyking: @SlightlyFearlessQuokka: thank you! hoping it works out for you!
14:22 IndustriousStrangeImpala: Standard waitlist email I guess
14:23 IndustriousStrangeImpala: @SlightlyFearlessQuokka: just based on my numbers I don’t think I should have been waitlisted based on trends
14:24 Woodstock888: Hey guys
14:25 Woodstock888: does anyone know when the deposit for YLS is?
14:25 Woodstock888: I'm trying to time my LOCI

14:31 UghSad: Nice! I think CLS
14:31 MomentousMercifulCoati: where's berk
14:31 myfriendsarevictorious: I don’t think I’m emotionally prepared to look at my nyu status checker and actually see a change
14:31 myfriendsarevictorious: @MomentousMercifulCoati: who’s she
14:31 Woodstock888: @UghSad: niceeee i'm ghosted by them adn NYU for 6 mnoths
14:32 UghSad: @Woodstock888: they seem to be doing a lot of that... who actually needs decisions it's not like it's mid April
14:34 ApathyMarmot: That's it. That's my full cycle done. It'll be weird not having this site as my browser start page anymore, but...
14:34 SlightlyFearlessQuokka: @harrystylesismyking: ahh i see that now, im sorry about your WL :/
14:35 harrystylesismyking: which one hahaha
14:35 Law101: @myfriendsarevictorious: nyu is doing status changes. since when?
14:35 SlightlyFearlessQuokka: all of them tbh, it's all painful
14:35 UghSad: @ApathyMarmot: Congrats on that A and being able to retire from the cycle of hell :)

14:38 TheoCrain: I take it you didn't get the shelving game
14:40 MR25percentile: hmmm ill message u on discord
14:46 myfriendsarevictorious: @Law101: they’re not lol I’m just constantly checking and idk how I’ll actually reach when I see it change
14:48 DropoutBear: Today’s been such a slow
14:48 DropoutBear: Life day
14:51 Law101: @myfriendsarevictorious: the status checkers are probably not even accurate
14:53 cracklemap: Cornell is making moves- just waitlisted
14:53 catpluscoffee: I think Cornell will have a lot of WL movement
14:54 catpluscoffee: I withdrew and so did many in the admitted students group currently
14:54 catpluscoffee: hypothetical but js
14:54 Woodstock888: ooh really?
14:54 Woodstock888: same with NU
14:54 ErikerinoSlamerino: so question here LMU sent me an email saying that i can book meetings with admissions. My app has been UR with no change since January. Should i contact them and tell them basically im still interested?
14:54 UghSad: I think cornell will move a lot soon bc they just had the deposit deadline
14:54 DropoutBear: I wonder if NU will actually move
14:54 Woodstock888: ah right was it 4/15
14:54 catpluscoffee: yeah lots of people went with another school over cornell. Cornell was very stingy will money and that turned a lot of us off
14:54 Woodstock888: same with NU!!
14:54 DropoutBear: I sent them a LOCI and wonder if they’d offer me AID
14:54 Woodstock888: lol
14:55 catpluscoffee: hhahaha
14:55 UghSad: I feel like so many schools are being stingy
14:55 BittenStickyTurtle: @ErikerinoSlamerino I got that email too from LMU, then I got hit with the WL
14:55 catpluscoffee: Cornell forgot to consider me need based aid
14:55 DropoutBear: I would only go to NU at this point if they doubled my Mich offer which is unlikely lol
14:55 DropoutBear: Or if my girl takes me back which is even unlikelier
14:55 Woodstock888: i'm withdrawing from NU soon
14:55 catpluscoffee: I had to call them and ask and they were like "oh wait sorry we never did thats why you got nothing"
14:55 Woodstock888: @UghSad: sorry you said you're sending the LOCI on the 23rd right
14:55 UghSad: @catpluscoffee: yeah cornell def was not treating you right
14:56 cracklemap: big yikes
14:56 catpluscoffee: hahaha its ok
14:56 catpluscoffee: I do think there will be mega WL movement tho:) for all the nell hopefuls
14:56 UghSad: @Woodstock888: i think so, hby? I might try to see if I can find out if anything important was said in the WL session first but Im not too sure I don't think I can attend the 1st one
14:57 ErikerinoSlamerino: @BittenStickyTurtle: think its worth to even contact? its april and ive heard nothing
14:57 Woodstock888: @UghSad: I can take notes and send to u if u need
14:57 Woodstock888: @UghSad: I was gonna send it this weekend but now i'm like maybe tahts too fast
14:57 catpluscoffee: Anyone have insight on the Columbia/NYU WL this year? I would put effort into getting off if I thought it was a potential reality but idk
14:58 UghSad: Cornell's financial aid office was the best for me, they were so fast but pretty much every school Ive been unimpressed by their financial aid offices/practices
14:58 BittenStickyTurtle: @ErikerinoSlamerino When did you apply?
14:58 Woodstock888: similar to cat, i wonder if its even worth sending a LOCI to CLS and NYU i havent heard anything from then
14:58 catpluscoffee: ^ yep NYU has ghosted me sadly
14:58 BittenStickyTurtle: Cause I applied at the end of January, and barely went UR one month ago
14:59 catpluscoffee: but I feel like with my stats aid is unlikely so I am almost like maybe I should just accept it and withdraw
14:59 DropoutBear: NYU WL is actually used / I heard CLS is 0 hope lol
14:59 Woodstock888: cat, did u send a LOCI
14:59 DropoutBear: NYU has ghosted me too
14:59 UghSad: @Woodstock888: that would be great if u could... im assuming it wont be anything earth shattering. Also i really feel like theyre not going to look at anything until after the info session
14:59 Woodstock888: @UghSad: ok join the discord and i'll send u notes later
15:00 Woodstock888: https://discord.gg/FPQUUeqb
15:00 Woodstock888: welcome to everyoen btw
15:00 Asparagine: @ErikerinoSlamerino: I think you should make an appointment and ask question about your app, the waitlist, and the school. I’m in a similar situation with USan Diego and asked if a LOCI would help and he said only if you have something new/significant to report
15:00 catpluscoffee: nope no LOCI, I applied ED and was deferred. thought about it but decided that an LOCI before a decision might be annoying
15:00 UghSad: But i dont think it would be crazy to send it this weekend
15:00 catpluscoffee: and I would want to save that material for if I get WL
15:00 catpluscoffee: but I could be wrong thats just what I ultimately decided
15:01 Woodstock888: @UghSad: did u join?
15:01 UghSad: Ok I joined
15:01 UghSad: I sent a thing in general i am not a top notch discorder lol
15:01 710: i'm putting a lot of effort into trying to get off the nyu waitlist
15:01 catpluscoffee: wait omg what is the discord
15:01 UghSad: Ohh
15:01 catpluscoffee: just some cool peoples
15:01 710: presuming i get it which is maybe not a fair assumption
15:01 UghSad: I will join the other
15:02 UghSad: What is the other discord
15:02 Woodstock888: https://discord.gg/FPQUUeqb
15:03 I-chose-this-waitlist: Wow Yale WOULD have waitlist webinars
15:06 Woodstock888: everywhere does
15:07 Woodstock888: cornell does too lololol
15:07 LSHopeful2021: @I-chose-this-waitlist: lol i feel like theyre just going to give us false hope
15:07 LSHopeful2021: when in reality, we all know only like 2 people are getting off that waitlist haha
15:08 BittenStickyTurtle: I wish schools made it public how many ppl put down seat deposits lol
15:09 UghSad: GULC has wailist sessions with dean andy and he tells you he doesn't know
15:09 harrystylesismyking: @BittenStickyTurtle: even if they did it would be hard to judge accuracy with double deposits in the mix
15:10 UghSad: @LSHopeful2021: I hope they use it to crush hope tbh.... like we waitlisted 400 of you, we are going to let in 4 good luck
15:10 DevilishSkillfulBracke: I know, what is up with all the waitlist info sessions? aren't schools full ?
15:10 UghSad: I work better with less hope
15:10 DevilishSkillfulBracke: @UghSad: lol same!
15:14 235711317: I already withdrew from YLS's WL but I'm so curious what they're gonna say during the info session
15:14 Law101: Maybe they want more students and therefore more money
15:14 HalfUnknownSnail: do we think we will get a friday fordham wave
15:15 Law101: @HalfUnknownSnail: emailed them yesterday
15:15 Law101: They still making decisions
15:17 Rabbitrabbit: Any hope of a CLS wave today or should I just give up and stop refreshing?
15:18 ErikerinoSlamerino: @BittenStickyTurtle: back in decemeber
15:18 myfriendsarevictorious: @UghSad: very May the odds be ever in your favor
15:19 Woodstock888: ugh guyss
15:19 Woodstock888: i just want cycle to be over
15:19 k000l: hi! does anyone have info/updates about the rumor that penn isn't awarding anymore merit aid?
