---
4/30: Decided to attend W & M. W/Ding from Wash U. was painful since I was really excited to get in there and loved it when i visited. Hoping W & M will give me a better chance of working in DC, and it's hard to say "no" to the in-state tuition...

3/31: Waitlisted at UNC via e-mail. Hmmm...

3/18: Yet another Waitlist, this time from Emory

3/15: Waitlisted at Vanderbilt. Saw it coming, thanks to LSN...

2/23: Admitted at WUSL

2/07: WD from American and Wake. Both sounded like good programs, but I'm leaning toward W and M right now out of the places I've been accepted.

2/03: Offered scholarship and Tuition Equalization Scholarship at Georgia.

1/21: Waitlisted at George Washington, kind of disappointed. It wasn't one of my top preferences, but it's not a good sign as far as my Vanderbilt, Emory, and WUSL apps are concerned. Not a good birthday present from the GW admissions office...

1/15: Admitted at Wake Forest.

1/05: Admitted at UGa.

12/19: Updated my transcript to include fall '09 grades. Sent out by LSDAS 12/29

12/15: Waitlisted at UVA, my top choice. Not really surprised given how my LSAT compares with the class of 2012. Admitted to William and Mary w/ merit scholarship offer.

9/27: Took Sept. LSAT (my only LSAT). Considered retaking for a better score but decided not to.

You were good and sent in your apps before me, but we seem to be pretty similar. Hope to compare our cycles. BU and William and Mary are my top choices; I'd love that merit money you got :-)

Best of luck! theduzzi813

Totally sympathize re: non-academic probation. Can't change the past - but it was really stupid considering it was for drinking, and not like, murdering my roommate. But rules are rules, and as a lawyer I imagine you should have some respect for them. Congrats on your acceptances so far - any particular way you're leaning? veeb

I totally agree with the whole one question=acceptance notion. Its kind of sad that guessing right on one question could get you into a school. Congrats on your acceptances too! Good luck with the rest of your cycle! msloane1
UNC is ridiculous Thursday, April 1st, 2010 at 9:40 am
I am waiting on them with numbers lower than yours and I can not believe they waitlisted you. It is their loss, you have some fantastic options! insertclevernamehere

Congrats on your decision to attend W&M! What do you want to do in DC? That's where I'm looking to work as well. mandapanda151

I'm interested in administrative law, too, specifically the EPA. But I'm going to try to keep my options open. I lived in the city a few years back and I miss it, so I'd probably take any job in DC right now. mandapanda151
