Re: Boston College c/o 2020 Applicants (2016-2017)
I applied on 10/31 via FT, was accepted via email on 11/10. LSAT ~50% median/GPA >75%.
For reference for other applicants waiting to hear or on waitlists: I have two friends who are extremely intelligent and qualified who were waitlisted at BC, then ended up getting off waitlist in May/June and are now attending. This doesn't help resolve the paradox (haw..haw...LSAT humor..sorry I'm the worst), but I hope this offers some hope to those on waitlist who want to attend.

In! Just got the email!
Went under review 3 days ago, so I was SUPER shocked to find an acceptance letter today. Hope this means I'm an attractive candidate for some of the other schools I applied to!
Best of luck to all of you!

Congratulations! Yes, I would imagine that means you're an attractive candidate. Are you on lawschoolnumbers? It'll be a long wait for news of possible scholarships in the spring.Thomas Hagan, ESQ. wrote:In! Just got the email!

Re: Boston College c/o 2020 Applicants (2016-2017)
Thanks! I'm >75 for both LSAT and GPA but not by much. I saw that some people on this thread got WL with similar numbers so I started freaking out. Not on LSN yet but I'm planning on hopping on that some time this weekend!cyclawps wrote:Congratulations! Yes, I would imagine that means you're an attractive candidate. Are you on lawschoolnumbers?

Hey all! Just got my acceptance today! Definitely on my shortlist of schools I am strongly considering. For timeline purposes, I applied on November 3rd, and was on the "fast track" with LSAT/GPA both >75th.

Just applied FT! For those who have received decisions, how much time passed between submitting your app and going under review?

Might be a silly question, but how do you know if you're under review?

Just received my acceptance email today. Under review on 11/15 and received decision today, 11/22. I am over 75th for LSAT and under 25th for GPA.
Congrats to others here for your acceptances. Go Eagles. Great pre-Thanksgiving treat.

Re: Boston College c/o 2020 Applicants (2016-2017)
Wish I would have hopped on the email list sooner or done whatever I needed to do to get on the fast track application - oh well, I'm predicting next week for movement for me here. I want to end up in Boston so an acceptance to BC would be great news! Complete on 11/02 so it's not like it has been crazy long, just seeing you all get decisions makes me want mine more!

Applied 11/18, went complete 11/21, and no movement since. I really regret submitting so close to Thanksgiving, now the wait is going to be even longer. GPA ~25% and LSAT ~50% so idk how great my chances are anyway (hoping for some minority boost).
