Probably the result of listing the wrong people in my essay (two were quite old and I probably didn't have all that great of an idea for the third). BA in 2006. JD in 2009 with continuous litigation work experience after. Math: Calc I-III, Linear Algebra, Real Analysis. Econ: all the usual requirements, plus Econometrics and Math Econ.

They called me in the beginning of June to notify me that I was accepted (over phone). I interviewed and still have not received an official letter yet. I have been trying to contact the department but they aren't giving me an answer. Does anyone know what is going on over there? Or is anyone going through the same situation?
