12-17
Received my first acceptance packet today from Valparaiso. I was offered a 50% tuition reduction for my first year.

12-28
Just got my Dec. LSAT score of 157.... went 6 points higher than June....Still not as high as PT average, but hopefully good enough

1-20
Went up for review at UK yesterday, and updated status checker says "under review". I am assuming this means I have been deferred for future review. Better than a flat-out rejection, but I am ready to move forward, either way.

1-22
Just got accepted at U of L via phone call from the Dean of admissions!

1-25
Accepted to Creighton via big packet in the mail.

2-3
Last week I sent UK a LOCI with hopes that it will sway them in my favor when I go up for review again next week. I will be updating then either in tears or ecstatic. Hopefully I won't be deferred a second time.

2-8
On hold for a 3rd review at UK. Letter coming shortly with details....

2-11
Rejected at U of I via email. I'm not surprised...or upset. This one was my "reach" school, just for fun.

3-8
I'm in at UK Law via email!!!! This cycle is officially over for me; I'll be attending UK in the fall!! Sooo excited:) :) I wish everyone else the best of luck!

Good luck on this cycle...being a non traditional student parent says a lot w/ adcoms (so I have been told) so hopefully you will get into all of your choices. I am doing the same thing applying early to a few schools but waiting on my Dec LSAT to apply for the rest. I have a much lower LSAT score than you so my chances are very slim. It's great seeing other parents on here really working towards a law degree. I'll be watching your progress & wishing you the best of luck :o) luvtoolearn

I just read that you are retaking the LSAT this month. You are a brave woman! I know I never want to see that test again for the rest of my life. Best of luck! :) LoBaas21
Congrats! Saturday, January 30th, 2010 at 7:02 pm
Hey.I see a couple congrats are in order on your cycle so far! Which one are you leaning towards? As for me, I have been in review with UT since September so whatever. I am extremely happy with my offer from UALR, so I am pretty set on them as of now. LoBaas21

Hey, hopefully so! You definitely have the stats to get in there, and it's definitely admirable being a non-traditional student and wanting to go to law school. As for me, it's the question of the hour; I really have no clue where I'm going. These next two months should be QUITE interesting... MBZags

Yup, my status hasn't changed and no e-mail! Did your status checker change after you got the e-mail? I was really hoping this would be my last hold but I guess not! I sure hope we'll be classmates, I'd love to get in to UK. Congrats again!! rachelemmalyn

Gahhh, I have no idea. I wish I was in your situation and knew where I wanted to go, but I'm still debating my options. MBZags
