Congratulations to all the new admits, and welcome. Looking forward to meeting many of you at ASW in April.

Are these receptions pretty much strictly suit-and-tie events? I'm going out for NYU's ASW and wasn't planning on bringing a suit but this Lambs Club place seems pretty fancy

i feel like your ruby should arrive soon
but seriously...the last pool was accepted almost a month ago and hasn't heard yet. our acceptance email said we'd hear "within a month"...does yours give you any indication?

They might have met their Ruby quota for now, and the new admits will need to wait for others to turn them down. I wouldn't be surprised if the bbkk and some others with her numbers got one much later.

Yes, my letter says "within a month" too.

Yea, they've given out over 20 rubies on TLS alone already and I met someoneone at Harvard's ASW who received the offer as well. The deadline to accept is April 15, so it's possible that they'll offer the scholarship to other applicants a few days after.

Someone on LSN who was accepted yesterday also got a Ruby yesterday (I PMed to confirm). They may have already distributed any Rubies they were going to give for our wave of admits (but I think others are right that they may give out more after the April 15 deadline passes)

ASSUME everyone on TLS is lying. In fact, assume everyone on the internet is lying. There have been no Rubies awarded. In fact, there are no Rubies, nor UChi. You've all been punked.

There will likely be more Rubies because some people will say no, won't they?

Did everyone get the Doctorff invite?
Does being selected in the program come with any financial compensation?
