Not to break up the JS2 speak, but predictions on the JS1 waves? From here on out, there could be either one or two waves a week, right?

It seems like (based on TLS) they usually go out at either 10:30 AM or 3 PM ET.

I applied to HLS early in November (paid the report fee and submitted) . I was under the impression that I was going to get a need-based fee waiver. I didn't get the waiver and and they told me to send a check, but I didn't (I was serious when I told them it would pose a financial hardship). Fast forward to today. I just got an email that says "During the initial processing of your application, we noticed that we did not receive your application fee. No application for admission will be considered before the application fee has been paid or a fee waiver request has been approved."

IF I came up with the money and sent them the check, would I have just as much of a chance (however little or great that is) of getting in as opposed to if I sent the check in November? Also, is it possible that they've seen my application and are considering me (thus encouraging me to apply? Granted, it could just be them being nice and not wanting me to think that I am being considered when I'm really not...

YOU GUYS. JS1. OH MY GOD.
Y'all I submitted on September 15th at 9a.m. with a median LSAT and 25th GPA and have been watching WAVE AFTER WAVE and people being like "should I give up if I submitted in December and haven't had a JS1 invite yet?" (which is not meant to shade those people because I understand we are all super stressed!) and had basically given up on getting one and just checked my email at lunch and am seriously getting hives I'm so excited.
So if you have been waiting forever THERE IS STILL HOPE. Which I know a lot of people have said but I have actual proof!

Good luck to anyone else still waiting/those waiting on JS2s this week <3

Well did you go complete without the check?

Congrats, JS1s!

The timing of this JS1 wave might imply a JS2 starting around 12:45? Thoughts?

Or is 3 PM more likely?

Last year most JS2 waves after the first were on a Wednesday, so I was assuming this Wednesday.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
