Mine just came about ten minutes ago, a week after I submitted, and still shows incomplete. That was anti-climactic.

Yeah, I didn't get my status check until about a week after submitting and then it stayed in that incomplete state for another two weeks I think (the status check says it may take three to four weeks even if your application is complete)

yeah, same here. I don't think you should worry about it saying incomplete unless it takes over a month.

Admitted people who've already received their parcel from the school - is the admitted student / preview event scheduled and are dates included? Need to start requesting time off...thanks!

They are! But my packet is at home so I can’t tell you the dates with certainty. I do remember that one was the weekend of the 23rd, though.

One of them starts the 15th (Thursday) of March. The 2nd one is the following weekend but I don't know if it starts Thursday or Friday. I highly suggest the first weekend if you can make it, since the SFF auction takes place that Thursday. I think the law school frat (phid) usually has a party during the 1st week as well if that is enticing to you.

I believe the second starts on a Friday, I remember because I was beginning to plan when to take work off

So based on what I'm seeing it takes about 2-3 weeks? I'm also wondering if this is a consistent timeframe for everyone or just the people who are pretty much auto-admits. Also, does it vary by the time the app was actually sent in? LSN is great, but I would also like to hear from people who don't necessarily put their info on that site.

It’s been nearly a month since I went complete and I’m still waiting :oops:
