Why it takes so long?


Ferero

I have submitted the application (regular cycle)to several law schools including CLS, NYU, UPENN, NU, Duke, Cornell, GULC and UCLA and completed the materials around end of Dec 08 and beginning of Jan 09. However, at present I have not yet receive any decisions from them. Now the time is killing me, I have checked my inbox, their status check website and llmguide in every a few minutes. So, if anyone knows any news or would like to share feeling or information please let me know or you can post in this topic.

hey i submitted by since Nov. and im in the same boat. this has got into my nerves too..im pretty certain it wont be long now since Upenn says it will release its decision before March 1 and we are well into the third week of Feb., as for NYU, i even have not got the completion email from them. i dont know if its because i didnt use LSAC or not..

Got an admission email last Friday from Duke, so they are sending emails with the decision starting Feb 1st. For the other schools, I'm also still waiting.
Good luck!!

be patient... this just takes a while... you have to consider that they have to check and answer hundreds of applications. Those people at the admissions office are just humans too you know. ;) Give them some time, I think you will hear from all of your schools soon (end of feb/beg. of march) Good luck!

Chchp,
Its decision came by e-mail and will be also delivered to me by mail.

I obtained my LLB (First Class Honors) from the top tier law school in Thailand and also passed Thai Bar. I have been working in an international law firm (NY based Law Firm) for five years.
Good luck!!!

Hello there! I was admitted at the University of Pennsylvania, Northwestern and at Duke at well. I will go to Duke, mainly because is has a great name in South America and USA, and also because is a great law school for corporate and international law.
