10-14 days before I received their decision, they've changed my status in their online admission tool. you can log in and check your status. if it changes to decision, you can expect snail mail...

good luck!

Hey,

Does anyone know how the deferral procedure works? This is what I read on the website:

If you would like to defer your admission to another year, please review our deferment policies listed below:

One year deferral

We generally guarantee a deferral if the request is made in writing before May 14, 2010, and after we have sent you a letter approving your deferral request you must send us a $700.00 deposit within two weeks from the date our letter (the deposit is non refundable but a portion is credited to tuition upon enrollment). Also the following conditions must be met:

Prior to February 1, 2011, you will need to submit:

* An official final undergraduate transcript
* A letter signed by you indicating what you have been doing for the period of your deferment and stating (1) that you have not registered in another law school in the interim year; (2) that you have not been convicted of a crime and no charges are pending; and (3) if you have served in the military, that any discharge you received was honorable

Please note that if you have not met these requirements prior to February 1, 2011, we will assume you have made other plans and will offer the position reserved for you to another who has applied for admission. Also, please remember that financial aid awards are not deferred; you need to reapply for financial aid for the year you intend to enroll. The deadline for receipt of next year's financial aid application is March 15, 2011.

Because granting your request means that another deserving candidate will be denied the opportunity to attend, we are doing so on the understanding that you will withdraw all pending applications to other schools, that you will not defer admission at another school to which you may be accepted, and that you will not apply for admission to any other school. Unlike several other top schools, we will not ask you to put this in writing, but we expect you to abide by this understanding as a condition to your deferral.


With regards the condition that you have not registered at another law school in the interim year, does this mean a US law school?
