I can confirm admits are going out today because I was just admitted via email!

Any chance you interviewed recently?

Went complete 1/12. I did not interview but I had spoken with a dean (not in admissions) I knew through somebody and had a phone call with an administrator at one of the Law School's Centers about my interest in being a research assistant at the center back in December.

I'm well above both 75th and haven't heard anything since an early January interview (which I thought went extremely well) - in at Harvard and Chicago. There were others a few pages back also >75ths who were also still waiting.

ETA I'm curious how many people who chose "100% I know I'll be in" on the poll still haven't heard back yet. (I chose option 2)

Well, they sent out a bunch of reserve emails last week, and one reported acceptance.

I was accepted late afternoon last Friday, so fingers crossed for a repeat today!

Not to get too negative, but is it true that they only send dings via snail mail? I have a horrible feeling that this is why there wasn't any news yesterday or so far today...

They used to. I looked on LSN and they first reported reserve last cycle was 2/13 and the first ding was reported on 2/19. This year's first reserve was 2/5 so I'm thinking we are in dangerous waters.......

I agree! I've been sitting in cold silence since September :/ It does seem like CLS has incorporated email into their decision making process much more this year.
