RG, you applied through a regular cycle, right?

CLS website states decisions are delivered March through May. Their decisions seem to be moving forward!

Congrats EIS!

Hope you get the financial aid. Looking forward to meet you next August in NYC.

Congratulationns EIS! Hope to see you in NYC!

Anyone else heard anything about REGULAR cycle? I'm still waiting - just want to keep the topic alive.

I applied trough the regular cycle (12/12/2007) and received the admission e-mail last Wednesday (1/6/2008). Today I received by Fedex the formal admission letter along with the Admitted Student Handbook.

Curiously, I did never receive the application completion e-mail. I wrote last Wednesday requesting an up-date on my application status and later that same afternoon I received the admission e-mail. However, I dont know if the admission e-mail had anything to do with me filing the information request.

Congrats Max1 for your admission! One question: what is your deadline for accepting?
I've been admitted through the early review and my deadline is March 10th 2008.
Thanks
Miki

Thanks Miki.
My deadline is March 15.
Max

congrats on your admission - I wish you well: thanks for the reply to my post.

You're welcome hjscotland

Hey Max,

Congratulations..

Are you waiting for any other schools to reply?

Thanks lawadd08. Im still waiting for news from Havard and NYU. But as for now, Columbia is my first choice

I wanted to let you know that my wife received the admission notice yesterday. She sent her application right before the deadline. The admissions e-mail also mentioned that CLS couldnt offer her financial aid. The deadline for accepting is Marc 15th.

Max1:

thanks for the info and congratulations.
Did she apply for early action?
Was she notified by email or regular mail?

Thanks and good luck

Alex

Hi, everyone!

I'd like to know what are your law school scores, cuz I want to apply for Columbia, but my scores are not so great. So, I would love if you guys that were accepted could tell me what are your law school scores so I can find if I'll have to improve my grades.

Thank you all.
xoxo

Alex: she applied trough the regular cycle, right before the deadline. Theyre notifying via e-mail.

Mila: Im Colombian and our grading system is quite different from the American system. My GPA was 4.58 / 5.00. According to the LSAC report the suggested US grades are as follows:

A+ = 5.00 to 4.6
A = 4.4 to 4.0
B = 3.99 to 3.5
C = 3.49 to 3.00
F = 2.99 to 0

Hi, guys, I also got the admission e-mail yesterday! I was really pleased because it was my first admission and Columbia was one of my first choices. FYI, I am an asian lawyer who have several years experience of corporate and governmental litigation and arbitration. I applied through the regular cycle right before the deadline. I have to deposit 500 US$ by Mar 15.

Of course, I am planning to accept their offer, but still waiting for Berkeley's offer before I finally make a decision (I didn't applied to Stanford). I understand that Columbia and NYC is simply the best place for studying transnational litigation and international arbitration, but does anybody have information about Berkeley in this field? I am kind of attracted to Berkeley for their finest weather and surroundings...and NYC's high cost of living somewhat scares me...

Thanks in advance, and for those who are waiting, wish you good luck!!!

Congratulations on your admission. Im also interested in litigation and international arbitration. I applied to CLS, HLS and NYU, (I didnt apply to Berkley). CLS is my fist choice, but Im still waiting for offers from HLS and NYU. Do you have an opinion on which one is better in our fields of interest?
