today is 5/6. seat deposit was 5/1. I do not see any new offers on here with the last being on 4/25/25.

WickardnFilburn

13:18

(5/8) I spoke with Wayne State staff a couple weeks ago. They said their seat deposit is based on when you're admitted, so they had one on 5/1, another about 15 days before that, and so on. The admissions department also told me they're still sending admissions letters and making decisions.

On May 19, they emailed me this: Applications for Fall 2025 only began being processed in the beginning to middle of January. When review begins, it takes the Admissions Committee approximately 8-12 weeks to process an application. However, this is not a set timeframe, and it may take the Admissions Committee more or less time than this due to the large influx of applications we have received this year. Your application status tracker will be the first place you will receive an application status update. The link to the status tracker is located in your application confirmation email from Wayne Law. What is shown in the application status tracker reflects the current status of your application. Any change in an application's status will be followed by an official email. We appreciate your continued interest in Wayne Law as well as your patience.
