Good luck to everybody!

Law888-
I'm in the same boat you are. A quick glance at posts similar to this one from 2007 would lead one to believe that the 2nd wave of acceptance letters will be sent out within a few days of the first deadline to accept. The first deadline is March 14, and as such, hopefully we will be receiving our letters by March 16 or so.
good luck
-Mike

Edit: one more thing - have any domestic applicants received their acceptance? What about applicants focusing in IP?

I wonder how big is the LLM class.

Is it like 60, 70 people?

I submitted at Dec 12 and received the "complete email" at Jan 30.
I think all of us received the email at the same time.

Hi guys! I called the Admissions Office yesterday and they told me that they notified a few people this time and that they are going to notify the rest in the days to come. The man that I spoke to specifically said that the fact that I didn't receive an email does not mean that I am not accepted!
Good luck to us all!
P.S. Do any of you have a problem to read their personal messages? Because the last two days I can't open my mailbox!

To those accepted: have you already received the "package"? I have not.

Do you know if the copy of our diploma is necessary?

Charlotte,
If you have submitted your application through LSAC, you need to send 2 sets of your original transcripts/diplomas to prove you succesfully earned your degrees, but notarized documents are fine (I've just asked this question to the LL.M admission office).

By the way, I can't open my LLM guide mailbox although I see that I've received messages. I'm sorry but I can't answer them!

Oups, Charlotte, "notarized" is just "certifiés conformes", à la mairie (as you may already know)
