Congratulations to all admitted applicants! It's a privilege to be able to study at Chicago, the place where Law and Economics was born.
As far as the rest of us are concerned (those who didn't receive an e-mail from Chicago), I guess in this case no news is bad news...

Gppin - where are you from?
I am for Brazil. Very pleased indedd to be admitted to a selective Law School such as Chicago. Though choice between Columbia (to which I was also offered a spot) and Chicago.
Just to let you know, I applied early, mid-October. I guess, however, that doesn't play an important role in their admissions process.

I'm in, too. I gather that they grant admissions roughly at one time regardless of the time of application by each applicant, given the size of the LL.M. Program there. I'm from China.
I have two concerns, however, one being the weather in Chicago (I've been told by many people that it's very cold there in winter) and the other being the safety of the campus (it's said that the campus is located in an area where the safety cannot be assured). Any comment? Also, the final exam for the spring quarter ends at the end of May, which may also affect the preparation for the NY bar exam.

I just woke up this morning and checked my e-mail and I saw the admissions e-mail! I'm in too! Was desperate last night when everybody else had received the e-mails, but now I'm IN too!!!
For people who would be interested in this kind of information, I'm from Greece and I received the application complete e-mail on December 13th.

I think the weather won't be much worse than any other area of the U.S., where prestigious Law Schools are (i.e. Michigan, Harvard/Boston, Yale/Connecticut, Columbia/New York, Pennlaw/Philadelphia). All of these places are cold! I don't know which region of China you come from, but you can understand that I, being a Greek, I'll definitely have a problem with the weather, since Greece's climate is like California's (despite the fact that a few days ago Athens was struck by a massive snowstorm which paralyzed the city). Your second point is interesting, as I haven't heard that Hyde Park is an unsafe place. I thought it was a safe place to be and that there were apartments around the campus, where you could live with your family etc. I'll probably have to phone to some of the many Greeks that reside in Chicago (Chicago is the city with the most Greeks in the world after Athens and Thessaloniki) in order to ask them about safety in Hyde Park. I will post what they tell me as soon as possible.
As far as the NY bar exam is concerned, I remember reading in a brochure that Chicago sent me 2-3 years ago, that there is a special route that students who are interested in NY bar preparation could follow in the last quarter, in order to be able to finish sooner. That's all I know for now, I think that the materials they will send us by March 20th will include more information on the subject.

To L&E -pil:
Thanks very much for the response above. With respect to the safety in Chicago, I have done a quick general research on the internet and it said that there's a safety problem in communities surrounding the university, altho' I'm confident that it'd be just fine living in the university. Please share with us any information you may find as regards the accommodation there. Thanks.

I applied for Chicago, but haven't received anything yet. Does it mean rejection?
Judging from last year's posts in this site, I'd say it doesn't mean rejection. Chicago announces both admissions and rejections through e-mail. Other universities send admissions by e-mail and rejections by regular mail, so in these cases if you don't receive anything you know that you're rejected. But Chicago doesn't do that. As long as you have not received anything yet, I'd say that you're still in the game. Chicago just released the first bunch of admissions. There is going to be a second one within a reasonable timeframe (presumably by late March). After all, you might get sth today, as they have proven to sent admissions manually (and not automatically or simultaneously). I received the e-mail 4 hours after the first person here claimed to have received it. So, they might still go on with the e-mail process. Good luck!

I think the campus itself should have security. They can't just leave students exposed to danger! I think Chicago has special agreements with private appartments (i.e. Regents Park), which are in another area but only 15 min by bus to the campus. Regents Park can't be in an unsafe place. I would recommend you visit http://www.law.uchicago.edu/Life/housing.html
You will find plenty of information with regard to housing for Chicago Law Students.
Btw, nice .gif file you've got in your profile!
