frankfurtercardozo Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I think the link I shared was updated this morning as per which decisions should be out by this evening. You're right, they haven't taken down the old post. I guess we will know soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That post appears to be from 2016 (Dec. 16th not 19th at that) and is on their old website rather than the current one. Am I not seeing something?

frankfurtercardozo Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Wow, sorry- didn't see the 2016 bit. Since the Friday notification came out on the 14th, I assumed this one would supersede it. False alarm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lackey Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 On a lighter note, just got home to Chicago and found the Harris happy holidays note crammed in with stuff from law schools. I think my dad missed it and forgot to tell me, LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

virgogrl56 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Wonder what that will mean for accept rates and class size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Policy.Planner.NYC Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Also, does anyone know if they ever call early admits the day before letters are released? Based on the results on gradcafe, it seems that this may happen for round 1 admits, but there is an extremely limited sample size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other, if few people applied EA in the first place a 168% increase isn't as impressive as it appears on paper. But here's to hoping that a larger class size tides us over.

Ellen123 Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 Has anyone heard anything yet? The wait is killing me. I checked the application portal and there is a "decision documents" icon, but when I click on it, it says there is nothing to report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked it last night and there wasn't a decision icon there. It must have popped up sometime this morning. What's the point of doing it a day plus in advance? LOL. At least we know they didn't lose our applications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The person who was accepted posted their stats and they were not crazy. 4 years work w/ 3.48 GPA and mid 150s on the GRE. Personally that gives me hope that applicant pool isn’t all 3.9s with 167-170 quant scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellen123 Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 @lackey - no they didn't. But based on threads from previous years, some admits only got notified via the portal, so don't lose hope. I also don't think it is feasible for them to call everyone. And thank you!
