(Current Year)
USCIS has announced that they have received and selected sufficient number of H-1B “cap” registrations for the available 85,000 H-1B work visas. As a result, the H-1B cap registration selection period has been completed and all selected registrants (via their employer or attorney) have been notified.
This year there were 470,342 eligible registrations (down from 759,994 last year) for 442,000 unique beneficiaries (down from 446,000 last year). USCIS has selected 114,017 beneficiaries for the available 85,000 cap numbers (down from 188,400 last year) making for a general selection rate of approximately 25% of all eligible registrants.
Process for H-1B Cap Petition Submission for Selected Registrations
Registrations which have been marked as “Selected” will be allowed to download an electronic (PDF format) H-1B cap Registration Selection notice which includes detailed information about the petitioner and the selected beneficiary and advises that the employer has up until June 30, 2024 to submit a fully-prepared and documented H-1B petition with USCIS.
The H-1B petition must include a copy of the Registration Selection notice. The notice also indicates the USCIS service center where the petition should be filed while making it clear that only the named employer can file only for the named beneficiary with no substitutions of beneficiaries permitted.
If the petition is not submitted before the deadline noted in the Registration Selection notice, the registration selection will be void and the H-1B number will be allocated to a different beneficiary as part of a subsequent wait list lottery (see below).
We Recommend Preparing and Filing as Fully-Documented as Possible H-1B Cap Petitions As Early As Possible
We recommend selected registrants consider submitting as fully-prepared and documented petition as early as practicable after the filing window opens on April 1st and definitely well before the June 30th deadline in order to avoid any last-minute glitches or issues.
It may be possible to refile a rejected H-1B cap petition within the deadline, but if an H-1B petition is rejected after June 30th, there is no recourse and the H-1B cap registration will be lost.
Major Issues During This Year’s H-1B Cap Filing Season – What to Watch Out For?
We anticipate the major issued during this year’s H-1B cap filing season to be in line with last year where we all observed a historically high rate of RFEs and scrutiny by USCIS.
Specialty Occupation . The #1 issue over the last couple of years has been the specialty occupation issue which essentially focuses on the position and that it is demonstrated that it requires a bachelor’s degree (or higher) in a specific field of study related to the position. See our in-depth article on this topic. Our job during an H-1B petition preparation is to analyze an offered position, identify red flags and suggest ways to address them for the strongest possible petition.
Wage Level I/Entry-Level Position . Entry-level positions, classified under Wage Level I, should be consistent with the SOC job category and with the actual job description. Entry-level positions in some SOC categories (Programmers, for example) are also not considered to meet the specialty occupation standard. An example: avoid classifying “Senior Managers III” as Wage Level I positions. See our in-depth article on this topic.
Third-party Placement/Right to Control . USCIS expects to see documentation of the relationships between the employer and the end client, including middle vendors. As many as possible of the contracts, purchase orders, statements of work and letters should be provided and they would ideally address the full duration of the placement, identify the employee, the position and its requirements, and the H-1B employer’s continued right to control the employee at the third-party worksite. Our office has a number of well-tested and “tuned” templates and we are definitely happy to provide extensive guidance on how to best present and document third-party placement cases in order to get an approval and for the longest-possible H-1B validity term.
In-house Project Documentation . H-1B employees who are placed to work at an in-house project may be expected to provide extensive documentation about the credibility of such project, including technical, business, marketing, etc. materials. Project timelines and evidence of available office space are often required as well. The in-house project scrutiny is significantly higher towards employers who typically place workers at third-party worksite locations.
CPT and Maintenance of F-1 Valid Status . “Day-1” CPTs are not unlawful; however, they have received a lot of bad publicity and USCIS questions if such CPTs are authorized properly. Before requesting change of status from F-1 to H-1B as part of an H-1B cap petition, we recommend carefully analyzing the validity (and possible documentation) of F-1 CPT and to weigh the possibility of requesting an H-1B to be approved with “consular processing” to avoid the issue altogether (although this will require leaving the US, attending H-1B visa stamp appointment at US consulate and then reentering the US on H-1B status). See this article on F-1 CPT as background .
These are not the only H-1B cap issues which have to be addressed but they cover, by far, the most common areas of USCIS scrutiny.
Attorney Assistance with H-1B Cap Preparation and Submission
If you would like to schedule a consultation with an attorney to discuss a specific case (but perhaps without engaging us to help with the actual filing), we offer phone consultations .
Waitlisted Registrations MAY Get Second Lottery Registration Chance (Likely in July)
According to USCIS, selected H-1B cap registrations which did not file an H-1B petition before the June 30, 2024 deadline will be then allocated among the wait-listed (non-selected) registrations. As a result, it is possible that an H-1B registration which was not selected in the initial March lottery to be selected and invited to submit an H-1B petition later in the summer, likely around July or August. There was no secondary lottery last year but there was a lottery during the prior years.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Capitol Immigration Law Group file the H-1B petition even if the cap registration was submitted by someone else?
Yes, absolutely, we can do this even if another attorney filed the cap registration. In addition to the normal H-1B petition documents (we will share checklists and templates), we will need the online H-1B Registration Selection notice.
The third-party client is not willing to provide much or any documentation – what can I do?
We recommend having an honest discussion and explain to the end client the importance of good documentation. Sometimes the other party may not realize the importance or the purpose. We also can document the facts of the placement in a number of other ways – project correspondence, task orders, invoices, sometimes even public records. Direct documents are best but there are alternatives. Additionally, as a result of recent litigation and the change in stance by the Biden administration, third-party documents do not have to be as complete as during prior years. Our office will be happy to provide guidance on this topic.
If the H-1B cap petition is denied before June 30th, can the petition be refiled?
Our office has been trying to find a confirmation to this question but no firm answer yet. USCIS has indicated that if an H-1B petition is rejected then it can be refiled as long as the refiling is done before the filing window (June 30th). They have not indicated that this is the same if the petition is filed, accepted and then denied. Even if this were the case, especially without premium processing, it is unlikely that a denial decision would come before June 30th to allow a second filing.
What are the chances for second (or third) lottery selection?
At this time we do not know the exact number of H-1B cap registrations but from our experience from last year, there were two “second chance” lotteries and the majority of cases which were selected under the second and third lotteries were U.S. master’s degree cap registrants.
Congratulations to all selected H-1B cap registrants — our office is ready to assist with the preparation and throughout the adjudication process — please contact us as soon as possible. Our attorneys and professionals stand ready to review your case, as part of our free initial consultation, and will help you prepare a strong H-1B application.

A new college application season is around the corner. Therefore, it’s important that you know when your colleges’ deadlines are so that you can prepare as early as possible. To ease your college application process, we’ve compiled general information on 2023-2024 college application deadlines. We did our best to cover a wide variety of popular universities. Keep reading to find out 2023-2024 college application deadlines for regular decision, early action, early decision, and more!
The majority of college applications for the 2023-2024 application cycle open on August 1, 2023. This includes both the Common and Coalition Applications . Both applications allow you to apply to a wide variety of public and private institutions .
If you’re looking to get a head start, however, you can complete the general application components at any time before August 1st (or after). Just know that you will not get access to specific college’s application components until the official “opening” date (August 1, 2023).
On the other hand, schools that use proprietary applications (meaning that they have their own specific applications that cannot be found on a platform like the Common or Coalition Application ) typically open them in August or September . Specific dates vary by school, so we recommend you check beforehand!
Apply to these scholarships due soon
What you’ll need to apply.
In terms of school specific application components, they’re usually quite similar school-to-school, but certain components like essay questions may differ. On the bright side, though, school-specific essays are usually far shorter than the main application essay. Think ~250 words rather than 650, which is significant.
No matter when and where you apply, there are some basic things you’ll need to submit to apply to colleges. These include:
Some colleges will require all of the above, while others, such as large public universities, might require only test scores and high school transcripts.
So, now that we’ve gone over when applications open, when do they close? Let’s see!
As you may have heard, there’s different types of college application deadlines. These include early action, early decision, regular decision, and rolling admissions . We will supply you the typical deadline dates as well as general information on these types of deadlines.
Transfer students – don’t think we forgot about you! We’ll also cover transfer deadlines and have a few helpful sources to help you through your college transition. Let’s start!
As indicated by the name, early action deadlines allow students to apply to colleges early. Students find out their admission decision before those who apply through regular decision usually applying in November and hearing back in December. If you want to hear back from colleges early without the pressure of having to commit to a school quickly, early action is a great option. As you do not have to accept/deny an admission offer until May 1, this gives you plenty of time to compare your options.
Most early decision deadlines also fall in November. Students who apply early decision at this time usually hear back by December. If accepted, a nonrefundable deposit is sent to the school far in advance of May 1st (National College Decision Day).
Many schools who offer early decision deadlines also have a second early decision deadline for students who didn’t apply to the first – with these second round deadlines often occurring sometime between early and mid-January.
Related : Early Decision and Early Action Notification Dates
If you’re not quite accepted to a school through early action, but not quite rejected, you may have been deferred . Being deferred means that your application has been pushed to the regular decision applicant pool, and will be reviewed once again amongst applicants who applied through regular decision. Being deferred isn’t the worst news- it gives you the opportunity to reach out to the school in the meantime and potentially improve your application (and thus, your admission chances too!).
Regular decision deadlines fall later than their early action and early decision counterparts, with most falling in early January. Students will typically receive their admission decisions in March and April. If accepted to a school after applying regular decision, applicants will have until the end of April (before National College Decision Day) to accept or turn down the admission offer.
Related : Regular decision notification dates
Now, let’s roll into rolling admissions ! Colleges that offer rolling admissions do not have set deadlines. Instead, these universities review applications as they come in. They typically have several “windows” each year in which students can submit applications. Applications are accepted until all spots in the upcoming class are filled up. While they can remain open all the way into spring, some colleges will close them on May 1st.
We want to take a quick second to help you note the difference between these two admissions options . The biggest difference is that applying to a college through early decision includes a binding agreement, requiring students who are accepted through early decision to commit to that particular school. These students must also withdraw all their other college applications (to other schools). So, if you’re planning on applying to a university through early decision, we urge you to be 100% sure that you would be happy to attend that school.
Last, but certainly not least, let’s go over transfer deadlines! For those planning on transferring to a new school , many transfer application deadlines fall between February and March, but some schools deadlines’ can even go farther into April or May. If this seems strange, just keep in mind that it’s quite common for transfer deadlines to fall later than or after schools’ deadlines for first-year students.
Also, as a general rule, it is a good idea to start your transfer application process at the beginning of your last full semester at your current university (the one you’re transferring from).
If you’re currently going through the transfer process and are looking for guidance or more information, we recommend checking out these sources:
Yay! We’ve finished going over all the types of deadlines for your college application. Ultimately, however, there’s more to applying to colleges than just your application. So, when should you do everything else?
Great question. Applying to college is a long process, so it’s best to start early! While it’s fine to start some parts of the process during your senior year, it’s a good idea to take your standardized tests (if required) during your junior year of high school.
Other components, like your essays , should be started as soon as possible, so you have enough time to really think through how you should answer the prompts. As for recommendation letters , you should make sure to ask for these at least a month before they’re due, to give your recommenders enough time to finish and answer any questions they may have.
If you are ready to apply early in your senior year, early action or decision might be a good option, as it may allow you to receive your decisions sooner and feel relatively more “relaxed” for the rest of the school year.

As you can see from our list, application deadlines vary widely, especially in their early decision and early action dates. Please note that the dates above are general deadlines that these schools put out. However, there may be different deadlines for specific programs or schools that are within your university. Check with each schools’ website to make sure you do not miss any important dates!
If you are unable to submit your college application (or any component) by the deadline, there are a few things you can do.
We recommend that you contact the school’s admissions office directly. This allows you to explain the situation to them and ask if there is any way that you can still submit your application. When you get in contact, make sure you have an actual reason for missing the deadline – they may be less sympathetic if you simply forgot about the deadline.
You might also consider writing a letter to the admissions office. In the letter, detail why you missed the deadline and elaborate on why you are a good fit for that college. Hopefully, they will still let you submit your application. If not, you still have options, don’t worry!
If you have found yourself wishing you applied to more schools but most of the deadlines have already passed, don’t fret! There are actually many schools out there with later deadlines .
If the missed deadline is your top-choice and you are determined to attend, there’s a few options. You can:
Ultimately, even if you missed the deadline for a particular school, just remember that it’s not the end of the world! No matter what schools you’re applying to and what deadline, we highly recommend you check out the specific deadlines for your schools to make sure that you don’t miss any. Good luck meeting those college application deadlines!

The consulting industry is known for its rigorous recruitment process, which often begins more than a year before the potential start date. To be successful in securing a consulting role, it is critical to understand the consulting recruiting timeline 2023 and plan accordingly. Top management consulting firms, such as McKinsey , Bain , and BCG , have specific deadlines for applications, and being aware of these dates is crucial for a smooth and successful recruitment process.
Undergraduate and Master’s Programs
For undergraduate and master’s program recruits, full-time consulting application deadlines typically fall between July and September, depending on the consulting firm and the specific program. Summer internship application deadlines usually occur between June and August. It’s essential to be proactive and start preparing your application materials early to avoid missing these deadlines.
What timeline should you adhere to when submitting your application? It is advised that you stick to the most immediate deadline you can meet with a fully realized and polished application and an adequate level of case readiness. If your application is not ready and you have not networked sufficiently, do not rush to submit it prematurely. If you have not already familiarized yourself with casing and if you do not already feel moderately comfortable with casing, do not submit your application pre-maturely.
MBA Programs
For MBA program recruits, full-time consulting application deadlines generally fall between August and September. Summer internship application deadlines usually occur between November and December. As with undergraduate and master’s program recruits, it’s crucial to start preparing your application materials early and stay updated on the specific deadlines for the firms you’re interested in.
Ph.D., J.D., M.D., and Postdoc Programs
For Ph.D., J.D., M.D., and postdoc program recruits, full-time consulting application deadlines typically fall in June. Summer internship application deadlines can vary, but they usually occur between November and December for the full 10-week internships. It’s important to note that most spots for these internships are reserved for MBA students, and Ph.D. candidates often apply for shorter summer internships with deadlines typically in the spring (March/April).
Experienced Hires
While a large majority of recruiting for top consulting firms happens directly from campus, firms are increasingly hiring experienced professionals. The best times to apply as an experienced hire are July/August and January. It’s essential to network with professionals at the firms to confirm that they are actively hiring in that location.
Here are some general guidelines for when to apply for full-time consulting roles, depending on your current level of education:

Early Action, or EA, has become a popular program among colleges in the United States. This admissions program allows students to apply to colleges and hear back from them early, but leaves them the option to apply elsewhere during the normal admissions timeline, compare options, and make a more informed decision about where to attend.
While not everyone chooses to apply somewhere under an early application program, there are notable benefits to making use of this timeline, from the potential security of knowing you’re already admitted to a college early in the process, to improved chances of acceptance at certain schools . It’s an option that’s well worth considering as you’re planning your approach to college applications.
Keeping track of deadlines during college application season can already be a challenge, and the EA process complicates your calendar further. Never fear! In this post, we’ve compiled a list of application deadlines for colleges with EA programs, as well as some helpful tips and background information to help you navigate the EA process.
The “normal” timeline for college admissions involves submitting your college applications in the fall of your senior year of high school, hearing back from colleges in late March or early April, and having to make a decision about where to attend by May 1st. This timeline is known as the Regular Decision (RD) timeline.
However, you’ll also find variations on this typical timeline. In addition to the RD process, many colleges now also offer some kind of early application process, through which applicants can submit applications, have them assessed, and receive an admission decision much earlier.
If you apply under the early application option at a college, you submit your application early, during the fall of your senior year of high school. You’ll also get a decision earlier, often in December, before your fall semester even ends. While you may be deferred , meaning that your application has been pushed back to the RD round for further consideration, you may also be accepted or rejected at this point.
Early application programs come in two major types: Early Decision (ED) and Early Action (EA). There are a few other types of early application programs that you might encounter, and a given college may offer a variety of different application plans.
Some colleges offer rolling admissions, in which applications are evaluated and decisions are made as they’re received, rather than waiting for a standard application deadline and notification date. Some colleges offer a second, later round of ED, known as ED II . Special programs, such as Questbridge , may have early application dates as well. However, ED and EA are the main options for most applicants.
ED programs generally have strict rules. They’re single-choice, meaning that you cannot apply to any other schools early. They’re also binding, meaning that if you’re accepted, you are contractually obligated to attend. EA programs are more flexible, and give students more freedom to delay a final decision and compare different admissions offers.
The defining feature of EA programs is that they’re not binding—if accepted, you still get to choose whether to attend that college, and usually you don’t have to make a decision right away. You can even apply to other colleges during the regular admissions round and wait for them to make admissions decisions before you make your final college choice.
Some EA programs are also not single-choice, meaning that they don’t ask you to refrain from applying to any other colleges early. However, some EA programs do have this restriction. This approach is known as Single-Choice Early Action (SCEA), or alternatively, Restricted Early Action (REA). If you apply to an SCEA program, you’re not allowed to apply to any other colleges under EA or ED programs.
The most popular due dates for EA applications are in November, either on November 1st or November 15th, or around December 1st. Top-tier, highly competitive schools are likely to use one of these dates. However, plenty of colleges have earlier or later deadlines, so it is essential to look up the dates for your particular school. We offer a full list of deadlines for EA schools at the end of this post.
Applying EA spreads out your application workload, demonstrates your strong interest in the college, and may improve your chances of being admitted at certain schools. If you’re accepted in the EA round, you get to celebrate and enjoy the security of already having one college option secured—and since EA isn’t binding, you can still consider offers from other colleges.
For more detailed information about EA and how to prepare for an EA application, visit these posts from the CollegeVine blog:
This list is organized by the month of each school’s first EA deadline. For each application due date, you’ll find an alphabetical list of schools that use that due date as their EA application deadline. For schools that offer a second, later Early Action deadline (EA II), we have included those dates as well.
Keep in mind that these colleges aren’t the only ones that allow you to apply early. Other schools also accept early applications under ED, rolling, or scholarship application programs. The schools included here are specifically those that use EA terminology and do not have a rolling admissions process overall.
Remember, before you submit an application to any college, visit the college’s undergraduate admissions website and thoroughly read all the application instructions. Schools may have ED or other early application programs in addition to EA. When you submit your application, double-check that you’re submitting it within the correct program.
Application dates and requirements may change. Every year, a few of these deadlines switch, so it is important to double check each school admissions website. Occasionally, schools have special timeline requirements associated with their EA deadlines, so it is very important that you check out the admissions page before submitting your application.

Hi, is anyone in my position or can you direct me to the best option? I was a covid student so my A-level grades were cancelled so when I got BCC I was just happy with not sitting the exam not realising the impact it could make in the future. Then I went to uni to do LLB Law and really struggled with family issues in 2nd year and landed with a 57% 2:2. I got a first-class in my dissertation and I would really love to aspire to a career as a corporate solicitor. Any tips or advice on what I can do to stand out in applications as they are opening, which firms I should consider applying and anyone in a similar position?

Aspiringlawyer792 said: Hi, is anyone in my position or can you direct me to the best option? I was a covid student so my A-level grades were cancelled so when I got BCC I was just happy with not sitting the exam not realising the impact it could make in the future. Then I went to uni to do LLB Law and really struggled with family issues in 2nd year and landed with a 57% 2:2. I got a first-class in my dissertation and I would really love to aspire to a career as a corporate solicitor. Any tips or advice on what I can do to stand out in applications as they are opening, which firms I should consider applying and anyone in a similar position? Click to expand...
LHitchens1 said: Fellow Covid student (uni edition) and low grades panicker here! Backstory: I had a similar thing this year in my final year. I did two exam while in severe pain and turned out I was experiencing one of my organs slowly rupturing! I got barely a 2:2 in the two module but got firsts in my favourite module (Law Clinic). First off, yes, grades do matter and to some firms they matter a LOT - do your research now and look at the requirements of each firm. You can tend to tell which firms prefer first class degrees (the ones I think this relates to include Slaughter, FBD, Akin Gump, Milbank, etc.) but there are some firms that do understand situations like this (looking at Hogan Lovells, Latham & Watkins, Mishcon...). Research is your biggest weapon right now! Email the firms you are considering applying to ASAP - the earlier the better as you can get ahead of the influx of students that will tend to start in September, and have a quicker response time than you would when it's prime application season time. I've started doing this now with A&O and a couple others. Explain in the email something like "in my second year, I was experiencing family issues that affected my university work and led to a 2:2 overall. However, I was able to improve in my final year and achieved first class grades. If I were to apply, how would my extenuating circumstances be considered in lieu of my situation?" You can elaborate on the situation if you want, but don't feel that you have to - family issues can be sensitive and they will know that. Also, if you've graduated already, get a job in a related field - it doesn't have to be a legal job! I've started in a role relating to interpreter/translator sourcing and while it has nothing to do with law, it is improving a lot of skills needed to be a solicitor like attention to detail and being very well organised. Having a job and being able to relate it to the competency questions will be more beneficial than just coming out of uni and applying. It adds a little more to your application to show that, yes, you have these grades, but you're working and achieving great things in your job that has transferable skills. I hope this helps? It's what I'm doing anyway, and so long as I stick to my schedule of applying, editing and contacting firms (and also applying to evets/webinars/networking opportunities), I think I'll have an okay shot.

Well-designed competition law, effective enforcement and competition-based economic policy promote consumer welfare and economic growth while making markets more flexible and innovative. The OECD actively encourages governments to promote competitive practices and foster market-oriented reform throughout the world.
Key messages, competition and open markets benefit consumers and businesses.
Competitive and fair markets bring consumers higher quality goods and services, lower prices, and more choice. As they encourage firms to become more efficient and to enter new markets, they lead to greater efficiency and in turn to economic growth. Competition also provides powerful incentives for businesses to innovate and helps drive technology adoption.
Competition authorities and governments should promote a level playing field for competitors, ensuring that public policies support efficient markets and that the design of industrial strategies goes hand in hand with competition policy. The OECD works with governments to help them achieve important policy objectives, such as promoting sustainability, without creating unnecessary barriers to competition and assess if competition is working well in all sectors, through in-country projects and international standards such as the OECD Competition Assessment toolkit.
Competition authorities play an essential role in helping governments promote stronger and more productive economies by vigorously enforcing existing legal competition frameworks. By detecting and investigating cartels, sanctioning abuses of dominance and blocking anti-competitive mergers, governments ensure the correct functioning of markets.
The OECD works closely with competition authorities throughout the world, to set standards to ensure the delivery of effective competition law enforcement. These include recommendations, guidelines and regular roundtables exchanging best practices on key topics in areas such as digital markets, innovation, co-operation and competitive neutrality which are at the forefront of the global competition agenda.
Globalisation and the digital economy have increased the number of competition policy issues and international enforcement cases. This includes issues such as cross-border mergers or potential anticompetitive behaviour by digital platforms. Co-operation between jurisdictions is crucial to promote the economic and welfare goals of sound competition policy at both a national and global level. It also fosters trust and transparency between jurisdictions and facilitates effective international business compliance.
The OECD promotes international co-operation through a variety roundtable discussions, recommendations and reports, through networks, such as the regional centres for competition, and with global events.
Digitalisation has reshaped competitive dynamics in the economy, creating new markets and transforming existing ones. This presents a multifaceted challenge for competition authorities and policymakers. They must grapple with uncertainty in rapidly evolving markets, address new forms of misconduct, for instance related to the role of ecosystems or platforms’ use of data, and examine markets whose precise boundaries are unclear. At the same time, mounting concerns about conduct in digital markets and indicators of growing market power have led to calls for new competition policy tools and the more active use of existing ones.
The OECD monitors the evolution of competition policy in the digital era while informing the debate through its G7 inventory of new rules for digital markets and its Best Practice Roundtables on Competition Policy.
The analysis of 2022 data showed competition staff numbers continued to grow, but real budget decreased. Ex-officio investigations on cartels increased, while cartel decisions decreased on average. Abuse of dominance decisions continued to decline, as did abuse of dominance investigations. Merger intervention rates increased, mostly due to an increase in the number of merger decisions approved with remedies and a decline in the number of overall decisions.
The 2024 OECD Competition Trends analyses competition enforcement trends in 77 jurisdictions covering a range of 30 variables.

Women's Swimming and Diving 7/2/2024 2:40:00 PM
The Case Western Reserve University women's swimming and diving team completed its best season in a generation during the 2023-24 academic year. The Spartans finished 13th at the 2024 NCAA Division III Women's Swimming and Diving Championships and nine members of the team received All-America honors.
Competing at the Greensboro Aquatic Center in Greensboro, North Carolina, CWRU earned its best national finish since the team placed 12th in 2003. The 13th-place finish also marks the third highest national placement in the history of the program, following the 12th-place finish in 2003 and seventh-place finish in 2001. CWRU scored 70.0 points across the four-day championship, the third most in program history and most since accumulating 97.0 points at the 2003 NCAA Championships.
Sophomore Claire Kozma claimed five All-America honors, tied for the second-most by a Spartan at a single championship and the most since 2001, and junior Gabriella Chambers earned four All-America honors. Two-time All-Americans at the meet included junior Kate Menzer , junior Angeli Paull , and junior Abigail Wilkov , with sophomore Eliza Dixon , junior Erica Rice , first-year Maggie Rose Rook , and junior Kelly Vann all recognized as All-Americans in a single event. The nine Spartans scoring at the national meet match a program record set during the 2001 championship.
Wilkov had the best individual finish among CWRU student-athletes, placing sixth in the 3-meter dive and seventh in the 1-meter dive. The sixth-place finish marked the best national placement by any Spartan diver in program history. The 200 Free Relay of Chambers, Dixon, Kozma, and Vann reached the podium by placing eighth. In addition, the 400 Free Relay finished 13th, 800 Free Relay placed 14th, and the 400 Medley Relay placed 16th nationally. As an individual, Kozma added a 10th-place finish in 200 Fly.
Prior to the NCAA Championships, the Spartans placed fifth in the University Athletic Association, their best conference finish since 2005. Wilkov became the first-ever member of the CWRU women's swimming and diving team to earn All-UAA honors in a diving event, placing third in the 3-meter dive. Also, the 200 Free Relay of Dixon, Kozma, Vann, and Chambers placed third to earn the first All-UAA honors in the event since 2010.
Eight school records fell during the 2023-24 season with Kozma (100 Fly), Wilkov (1-meter dive, 3-meter dive), and first-year Ava Ellis (200 Breast) setting individual marks. Records in the 200, 400, and 800 Free Relays and 400 Medley Relay were also set during the season at either the UAA or NCAA Championships.
In dual meets, the Spartans went 5-1, including victories over ranked Carnegie Mellon and SUNY Geneseo. CWRU ended the season ranked 14th in the country by the CSCAA.
In the classroom, Wilkov was named to the CSC Academic All-America First Team and Kozma was named to the All-America Third Team, the fourth and fifth Academic All-America honors in program history. In addition, Paull and Vann were named to the Academic All-District Team and 36 members of the team earned UAA All-Academic recognition.

Thirty-four felony convictions. Charges of fraud, election subversion, and obstruction. One place to keep track of the presidential candidate’s legal troubles.
Sign up for The Decision , a newsletter featuring our 2024 election coverage.
Donald Trump has become the first former president to be convicted of a felony, found guilty of 34 counts in a Manhattan court on May 30.
The verdict is a historic moment. Not long ago, the idea that a former president—or a major-party presidential nominee—would face serious legal jeopardy was nearly unthinkable. Now he is convicted and is scheduled to be sentenced this fall.
In addition to the conviction in Manhattan, Trump faces 57 more felony counts across one state court and two different federal districts, any of which could potentially produce a prison sentence. He also lost a civil suit in New York that could hobble his business empire, as well as a pair of large defamation judgments. Meanwhile, he is the presumptive Republican nominee for president. His legal fate is being litigated at the same time that his political future is before voters.
David A. Graham: The end of Trump Inc.
Here’s a summary of the major legal cases against Trump, including key dates, an assessment of the gravity of the charges, and expectations about how they could turn out. This guide will be updated regularly as the cases proceed.
In the fall of 2022, New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a civil suit against Trump, his adult sons, and his former aide Allen Weisselberg, alleging a years-long scheme in which Trump fraudulently reported the value of properties in order to either lower his tax bill or improve the terms of his loans, all with an eye toward inflating his net worth.
When? Justice Arthur Engoron ruled on February 16 that Trump must pay $355 million plus interest, the calculated size of his ill-gotten gains from fraud. The judge had previously ruled against Trump and his co-defendants in late September 2023, concluding that many of the defendants’ claims were “clearly” fraudulent—so clearly that he didn’t need a trial to hear them.
How grave was the allegation? Fraud is fraud, and in this case, the sum of the fraud stretched into the hundreds of millions—but compared with some of the other legal matters in which Trump is embroiled, this is a little pedestrian. The case was also civil rather than criminal. But although the stakes are lower for the nation, they remain high for Trump: The size of the penalty appears to be larger than Trump can easily pay, and he also faces a three-year ban on operating his company.
What happens now? Trump has appealed the case. On March 25, the day he was supposed to post bond, an appeals court reduced the amount he must post from more than $464 million to $175 million. He must appeal by this summer.
Although these other cases are all brought by government entities, Trump also faced a pair of defamation suits from the writer E. Jean Carroll, who said that Trump sexually assaulted her in a department-store dressing room in the 1990s. When he denied it, she sued him for defamation and later added a battery claim.
When? In May 2023, a jury concluded that Trump had sexually assaulted and defamed Carroll, and awarded her $5 million. A second defamation case produced an $83.3 million judgment in January 2024.
How grave was the allegation? Although these cases didn’t directly connect to the same fundamental issues of rule of law and democratic governance that some of the criminal cases do, they were a serious matter, and a federal judge’s blunt statement that Trump raped Carroll has gone underappreciated.
What happens now? Trump has appealed both cases, and he posted bond for the $83.3 million in March. During the second trial, he also continued to insult Carroll, which may have courted additional defamation suits.
In March 2023, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg became the first prosecutor to bring felony charges against Trump, alleging that the former president falsified business records as part of a scheme to pay hush money to women who said they’d had sexual relationships with Trump.
When? The trial began on April 15 and ended with a May 30 conviction . Sentencing is scheduled for September 18.
How grave was the allegation? Many people have analogized this case to Al Capone’s conviction on tax evasion: It’s not that he didn’t deserve it, but it wasn’t really why he was an infamous villain. Trump did deserve it, and he’s now a convicted felon. Moreover, although the charges were about falsifying records, those records were falsified to keep information from the public as it voted in the 2016 election. It was among the first of Trump’s many attacks on fair elections. (His two impeachments were also for efforts to undermine the electoral process.) If at times this case felt more minor compared with the election-subversion or classified-documents cases, it’s because those other cases have set a grossly high standard for what constitutes gravity.
What happens now? The next major step is sentencing. That was originally scheduled for July, but it has been delayed until September 18 while a judge considers Trump’s argument that the U.S. Supreme Court’s immunity decision invalidates his conviction.
Jack Smith, a special counsel in the U.S. Justice Department, has charged Trump with 37 felonies in connection with his removal of documents from the White House when he left office. The charges include willful retention of national-security information, obstruction of justice, withholding of documents, and false statements. Trump took boxes of documents to properties, where they were stored haphazardly, but the indictment centers on his refusal to give them back to the government despite repeated requests.
David A. Graham: This indictment is different
When? Smith filed charges in June 2023. On May 8, 2024, following several prior delays, Judge Aileen Cannon announced that she was indefinitely postponing the trial until preliminary issues could be resolved. Smith faces a de facto deadline of January 20, 2025, at which point Trump, if reelected, would likely shut down a case.
How grave is the allegation? These are, I have written, the stupidest crimes imaginable , but they are nevertheless very serious. Protecting the nation’s secrets is one of the greatest responsibilities of any public official with classified clearance, and not only did Trump put these documents at risk, but he also (allegedly) refused to comply with a subpoena, tried to hide the documents, and lied to the government through his attorneys.
How plausible is a guilty verdict? This looked to be the most open-and-shut case: The facts and legal theory here are pretty straightforward. But Smith seems to have drawn a short straw when he was randomly assigned Cannon, a Trump appointee who has repeatedly ruled favorably for Trump on procedural matters and bogged the case down in endless pretrial arguments . Some legal commentators have even accused her of “sabotaging” the case.
In Fulton County, Georgia, which includes most of Atlanta, District Attorney Fani Willis brought a huge racketeering case against Trump and 18 others, alleging a conspiracy that spread across weeks and states with the aim of stealing the 2020 election.
When? Willis obtained the indictment in August 2023. The number of people charged makes the case unwieldy and difficult to track. Several of them, including Kenneth Chesebro , Sidney Powell , and Jenna Ellis, struck plea deals in the fall. Because a challenge to Willis’s presence on the case isn’t going to be heard until October , the case is not expected to begin before the election.
How grave is the allegation? More than any other case, this one attempts to reckon with the full breadth of the assault on democracy following the 2020 election.
How plausible is a guilty verdict? Expert views differ. This is a huge case for a local prosecutor, even in a county as large as Fulton, to bring. The racketeering law allows Willis to sweep in a great deal of material, and she has some strong evidence—such as a call in which Trump asked Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” some 11,000 votes. Three major plea deals from co-defendants may also ease Willis’s path, but getting a jury to convict Trump will still be a challenge. The case has also been hurt by the revelation of a romantic relationship between Willis and an attorney she hired as a special prosecutor. On March 15, Judge Scott McAfee declined to throw out the indictment, but he sharply castigated Willis.
Special Counsel Smith has also charged Trump with four federal felonies in connection with his attempt to remain in power after losing the 2020 election. This case is in court in Washington, D.C.
When? A grand jury indicted Trump on August 1, 2023. The trial was originally scheduled for March but was frozen while the Supreme Court mulled whether the former president should be immune to prosecution . On July 1, 2024, the justices ruled that a president is immune from prosecution for official but not unofficial acts. They decided that some of Trump’s post-election actions were official acts and sent the case back to the trial court to determine others. That likely means several more rounds of argument and appeal and all but ensures that the trial won’t begin before the election. As with the other DOJ case, time is of the essence for Smith, because Trump, if reelected, could shut down a case upon taking office in January 2025.
David A. Graham: Trump attempted a brazen, dead-serious attack on American democracy
How grave is the allegation? This case rivals the Fulton County one in importance. It is narrower, focusing just on Trump and a few key elements of the paperwork coup , but the symbolic weight of the U.S. Justice Department prosecuting an attempt to subvert the American election system is heavy.
How plausible is a guilty verdict? It’s very hard to say. Smith avoided some of the more unconventional potential charges, including aiding insurrection, and everyone watched much of the alleged crime unfold in public in real time, but no precedent exists for a case like this, with a defendant like this.
In more than 30 states , cases were filed over whether Trump should be thrown off the 2024 ballot under a novel legal theory about the Fourteenth Amendment. Proponents, including J. Michael Luttig and Laurence H. Tribe in The Atlantic , argued that the former president is ineligible to serve again under a clause that disqualifies anyone who took an oath defending the Constitution and then subsequently participated in a rebellion or an insurrection. They said that Trump’s attempt to steal the 2020 election and his incitement of the January 6 riot meet the criteria.
When? Authorities in several states ruled that Trump should be removed from the ballot, and the former president appealed to the Supreme Court. The justices ruled unanimously on March 4 that states could not remove Trump from the ballot. The conservative majority (over strenuous liberal objections) also closed the door on a post-election disqualification by Congress without specific legislation.
How grave is the allegation? In a sense, the claim made here was even graver than the criminal election-subversion cases filed against Trump by the U.S. Department of Justice and in Fulton County, Georgia, because neither of those cases alleges insurrection or rebellion. But the stakes were also much different—rather than criminal conviction, they concern the ability to serve as president.
What happens next? The question of disqualification seems to now be closed, with Trump set to appear on the ballot in every state.
Hiking and camping fanatics know all too well the risks of a tick bite.
Ticks are tiny but carry mighty illnesses, including Lyme disease. They thrive in heavily wooded areas across the U.S. and although there's greater risk in the northeast, the Midwest and the Mid-Atlantic regions, cases of tick-borne diseases are reported in every state in the nation.
In 2022, the number of people diagnosed with Lyme disease in the U.S. increased to 62,551, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention . In the previous decade, infections averaged about 33,000 a year.
Lyme disease is the most common disease transmitted through tick bites, according to the CDC . Here is what you need to know about the most prevalent tick-borne illness:
Although Lyme disease infections were close to 63,000 in 2022, the CDC estimates that the number of people who have contracted the often hard-to-diagnose illness could be as much as 10 times higher than reported cases.
Some states see a much higher number of infections than others. The following states have the highest infection rates of Lyme:

With climate change raising temperatures, tick populations have expanded into new regions and put more people in contact with ticks and their illness-causing bacteria.
Annual cases are expected to continue to climb.
"Deer ticks are mostly active when temperatures are above 45 degrees Fahrenheit, and they thrive in areas with at least 85% humidity," according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency . "Thus, warming temperatures associated with climate change are projected to increase the range of suitable tick habitat."
Of any state, Rhode Island, Vermont and Maine had the highest rate of reported Lyme disease in 2022. The number of reported cases in Rhode Island was 212 per 100,000 people − the highest of any state that year. Vermont reported 204 cases per 100,000 residents and Maine reported 194.7 cases per 100,000, according to the CDC.
See if your county had reports of Lyme disease within the past five years:
Seven of the 10 counties most affected by Lyme disease were all located in Pennsylvania between 2016 and 2019. During that same time period, Pennsylvania was home to nearly 30% of all reported Lyme disease cases, followed by New Jersey with 12% of all cases, according to USAFacts , a nonprofit that provides analysis on U.S government data.
The blacklegged tick and Western blacklegged tick can spread Lyme disease, which can lead to a wide range of health problems.
In high-risk areas, an estimated 10% to 50% of blacklegged ticks carry the bacteria that causes Lyme.
These high-risk areas include:
Hallmark symptoms of Lyme disease in the acute stage include a “bullseye” rash, (erythema migrans), fever, chills, fatigue, and muscle and joint aches.
Without treatment, Lyme disease can progress to include neurological, heart, and joint problems.

Melissa Brown contends authorities illegally charged her without probable cause on Feb. 10, 2023. Her lawsuit states law enforcement officers violated her constitutional rights after raiding her Congers home with a defective search warrant while she stood in her kitchen.
The lawsuit names the Rockland District Attorney's Office, the Clarkstown Police Department, arresting Clarkstown Officer Thomas LaTorre, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, and unnamed officers and District Attorney's Office personnel. Brown's attorney Gary Graifman of Kantrowitz, Goldhamer & Graifman, filed the lawsuit on June 24 in the U.S. District Court in White Plains.
Clarkstown Town Attorney Kevin Conway and District Attorney Thomas Walsh declined to comment on pending litigation. Those named in the lawsuit have not filed legal papers contesting Brown's claims.
Brown is seeking monetary awards and a jury trial before Judge Nelson Roman.
The legal action states police took Brown's cellphone without her knowledge, and detained and handcuffed her for an hour outside her home before putting her into a patrol car without advising her of her constitutional Miranda rights against self-incrimination.
The lawsuit states that due to the authorities publicizing Brown's arrest, they soiled her reputation. She subsequently lost her job of more than 17 years as a senior director of human resources for an Ivy League college.
"The filing of criminal charges and release of information were both, upon information and belief, effectuated with malice," Brown's lawsuit states. "Upon the alleged charges being voluntarily withdrawn and a motion to seal ... being granted, defendants, in violation of their obligations, continued to publish, disseminate and distribute the claimed charges and the arrest of plaintiff, despite the order to seal the record."
During a news conference announcing the arrests on Feb. 15, 2023, Walsh and DEA Special Agent Frank Tarentino outlined the investigation. Tarentino, who oversees the DEA's New York Division, described Carl Desir of Congers and Brown, then 43, as "significant" drug traffickers who were "pushing poisons on our streets."
They announced the seizure of five kilos of cocaine with an estimated street value of $1.5 million; two guns, including a Tec-9; $23,000 cash; marijuana; and edible tetrahydrocannabinol, known as THC, in packages with common candy names. THC is a psychoactive synthetic component.
They also announced at that time that their investigation also led to a raid on a Nyack house that produced a kilo of cocaine, an automatic pistol, 12 Oxycontin pills, and $200 cash.
Desir, 49, is serving six years in state prison on his conviction for drug possession and possession of a weapon. His earliest possible release date is March 24, 2028, according to the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision website.
Brown's lawsuit says the District Attorney's Office never brought the felony charges against her before a Rockland grand jury. Prosecutors offered Brown immunity to testify against Desir, the lawsuit states. The District Attorney’s Office later filed a certificate of disposition dismissing all charges against her on July 31, 2023. On Aug. 3, 2023, the Clarkstown Town Court issued a certificate of disposition dismissing the charges.
"Subsequent to the February 10, 2023, arrest of Melissa Brown, those allegations were negligently, recklessly, and/or intentionally released to the public by the Clarkstown Police Department and the United States Drug Enforcement Administration ( “the DEA”) by press release , which resulted in reporting on the arrest and charges against" Brown, the lawsuit argues.
The Journal News/lohud is among the media outlets that reported Desir and Brown's arrests.
The lawsuit contends that the DEA and Clarkstown police refused to publicly retract or amend their public release of information outlining allegations against Brown, even after the charges were dismissed.
The lawsuit claims authorities violated Brown's civil rights and, by publicly accusing her of criminal offenses, portrayed her as being involved in a large-scale criminal drug enterprise. As a result, Brown feared for her safety and suffered humiliation, it claims.
Brown's lawsuit seeks compensatory and punitive money damages, and costs involving the lawsuit, including reasonable attorney’s fees. No amount is cited in the lawsuit, which demands a jury trial.
