I emailed Stanford asking about the status of my application for the CG&P program, my exact email was:

"To,
Office of Graduate Admissions,

Hello. I am sure that you all are very occupied, especially at this time, with the COVID-19 outbreak spreading. But it is my humble request if you could just let me know what my application status is, I had applied for the Masters in Law in Program (CG&P) and have not heard anything from Stanford yet. Had my deadlines for other institutes not been fast approaching I would have not disturbed you otherwise. I am aware that some students have been called and admitted and even waitlisted already to the program, but so far I have not received any communication from Stanford. Its my request if you can let me know what my application status (good or bad) or at least provide me with some sort of timeline for the same if I am still being considered."

Their response was:

"Thank you for your email.

The admissions decisions are an ongoing process. Therefore your application is currently in review. We will contact applicants with their decisions (admit, waitlist, deny) this month and into early April."

Honestly, don't know what to make of this. I want to move ahead and confirm my admission to NYU, but don't know what to expect out of this vague response.

Hi All, I received a call tonight for the LST program, which lasted about 35 mins. It was not scheduled at all. It was a very friendly and casual conversation and we spoke about my work experience, why I’m interested in Stanford and discussed the various course options within the program. He also asked me a few questions about my personal statement. He mentioned they would be making admission decisions during the course of next week or the following. Good luck to all!

Although, some schools are moving their deadline date, perhaps we may get lucky.

No call for me...

Hi guys!

On Saturday night I received a call from a Stanford Professor. It wasn't an interview as such (I was the one asking questions haha), she just informed me that they are finalizing their review of all applications to Stanford’s International Economic Law, Business & Policy LL.M. program for the 2020-2021 academic year. From what she mentioned, they are on track with their review process and we should not worry. We will hear from them in the next couple of weeks. She called because she wanted to deliver this information personally.

Before the call, she emailed me to confirm my phone number.

Hi IDontJudge and KL2019, thank you so much for your updates. May I ask where are you guys from? Just to assess my little hope :l

Thanks again!

Thanks so much for the update! May I ask which country you are from? I'm just wondering if I haven't received the call by now, if it means that I am out completely. Thanks!

Hi guys ! I just received an e-mail from the associate dean informing me that I got accepted into the IELBP LLM program. I'm from France and I didn't receive any call prior to this e-mail if that can help!

People already get rejected or waitlisted? I’m getting no response on either of my programs applications

Any news from LST? No acceptance/rejections?

I just got accepted to IELBP! I'm Polish, working in Brussels and didn't receive any prior phone call/email as well.

Good luck to all!

I just got accepted to SPILS.

I just got accepted to SPILS.

looks like they sent out decisions on March 19th. I sent an email to the teaching fellow of IELBP yesterday and she replied they have concluded the review and a decision will come out soon. From the sound of it I'm gonna guess I'm out since i didn't receive the admission email that others have received so sad :(
