I never actually went "under review". My status checker just said application complete until I got the acceptance call and then it changed to decision made a few hours later.

Haha i feel ya, BU is the only school I've heard back from so far and I was going crazy before then. It's even worse than waiting on the LSAT. Thank you!

Checked my mail after seeing this and got mine, too. It's a nice packet of information and literature. Mine also included scholarship info.

Awesome, thank you! Looks like I'm going to have my parents open it because I don't want to wait until winter break to find out :D

I'd definitely have my parents open it if they delivered it to their house. I mean, you already know you're in!

I don't have a current status date, but I know the day it went complete (11/15). Can't remember if I ever had a date.
I don't think they ever change it. I went complete around 10/16 and it hasn't updated. I'm pretty sure people in the first wave of acceptances said it didn't change until a few hours after they got their acceptance phone call.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

Just got deferred from ED to RD, via email. A bummer but still love the school, hopefully they don't take too long to make a decision on RD, the wait is already rough!

Congrats! A 4.0 GPA is nothing to sneeze at, no wonder they want to snap you up!

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
