received 'on hold' by snail mail.

i know it means 'defer' and probably better than a waitlist.

does CLS give out many 'on hold's?

what would be my chances?

fyi, my numbers are 168/3.4

thanks in advance for your kind replies~

when did you go complete? truth be told, i would've told you those numbers were auto-reject if anything (we're talking about Columbia Law in NYC, right?), but i'd take the "on hold" letter as good news. and from what i understand, hold > waitlist.

thnks for the reply. I also thought I'd be auto-rejected.

I went complete on January 5th, and I got my 'on hold' letter

at the end of february.

Recommendations / Does the signature on LOR request form handwritten?

« on: October 30, 2008, 10:55:34 PM »

The recommendor who's supposed to write me a LOR is at another country.

I know I should print the request form, put my signature and send it to him.

However, is it possible that I put in my signature digitally(ex. PDF writer or a similar program)?

That would make things much easier for me, since then I would only have to send my recommender an e-mail.

Thanks in advance for your kind replies :-)

I think on the site it says it could take up to 14 days for them to process or something. It's usually faster. Don't fret

First of all, thank you for your kind reply.
But I heard that before processing, as they receive my transcripts,
they let me know by checking the 'transcript received' section 'yes' on the web page.

I know they received mine thursday 10am.
But the web page's 'my account status' still says they haven't.

And I can't get in touch with them for the next 12 hours.

So..well, this is starting to freak me out.
Though I'm glad I've still got friday to call and ask them.

LSAC and LSDAS / How long does it take for LSAC to update my account status?

« on: October 16, 2008, 07:12:27 PM »

I sent my transcripts through DHL, and it has been received by LSAC on thursday 10am.

But my account status still says 'No transcript received'

Does it normally take a day or two?

Or is there something wrong with my transcripts?

I tried calling them but they've already closed for the day.

Can't wait 12 hours...
