I wonder if Stanford simultaneously sends decisions to all admitted applicants. Does anyone know?
Rejection notices seem to have been dispatched later than admissions ones last year. Does this mean that applicants including me who haven't received e-mail now after the interview have no chance to be admitted? Any information would be appreiated.
Anyone else admitted to Stanford?

I understand they release the admission decisions almost at the same time.

Aliya, congrat! I am still awaiting the decision.

I don't see too many people waiting for SPILS here, but here goes:
I emailed Stanford to find the status of my app, and they told me that my file was currently under review by the admissions committee.
I suppose I am one of the last candidates to be considered by Stanford on account of a courier-service-tragedy, but they were very friendly and understanding about it all and finally did process my application.
Hope this helps anyone wondering about SPILS status.

Wuhkong, I originally thought you are my classmate--you are not that old as I might be only 1 year younger than you. My graduation year is 1999. If u want, you may send me email at aliya_wang@yahoo.com.cn and we may discuss more details. Have a good day.

Hi Aliya. We definetely have to get in touch. I'll send you an e-mail.
As to the phone interview, it took about 15 min. and was very generic, related to my practice in Brazil and in the US. We also discussed the format of the LLM and the purpose of attending it. It was a more a friendly conversation than an interview.

Hi! I was admitted to SPILS! I received the email on Friday 14 March. Later, that afternoon, I also received a phone call. I was totally blocked at that call! Two days after the call I realized that I had a missed call from the same number at my cell phone from Tuestay 11. Maybe I "missed" the phone interview...
I am very excited with the admission. I have to solve the financial situation yet.
I am from Argentina.
see you guys!
Demian

Hi all, I was admitted to the LST program. I'm from Australia and have 2 years of work experience in a local commercial law firm. I received a phone interview out of the blue at work in the morning and the admit email came through less than a week later. The call caught me off guard and lasted about 8 minutes. I was asked 5 questions and had the opportunity to ask a couple of my own.

Dina H,
Stanford has, overall, and edge over Columbia but, as to securities law, CLS may be better because it has the strongest ties with Wall Street.

Pitch, you are probably right especially that they have professor Coffee there. However the thing that's making me hesitant is the corporate governance specialization in SLS...i am honestly more passionate about SLS but the rational choice seems CLS!!! Decision has to be taken within the 27th either I pay the deposit or dont !!!! any other thoughts anyone??
Aus the phone interview was my most horrible experience, they called right after my grandmother's funeral and i didnt even tell them anything about it I just blankly answered the questions!!The interview was around 15-20 minutes
