Freaking out a bit about decisions... Think I've narrowed it down to GW, Emory, and Pepperdine based on weather, money, and impressions from visiting.

Congrats Monday, December 29th, 2008 at 4:13 pm
...on BU! Good luck with hte rest of your schools, though I doubt you'll need it! OldG
Well done... Monday, January 5th, 2009 at 5:02 pm
You should be receiving good news on the other schools as well. wltyboy
Congratulations to you!! Monday, January 26th, 2009 at 8:43 pm
Wow, you're cleaning up! It'll be great when we've heard from all of our schools and can make a decision... are you leaning towards Michigan? OldG
I'm still waiting Tuesday, February 17th, 2009 at 1:51 am
...too hear from several other schools and hoping I'll receive some $$ from a few more schools as well. Of course, all of that is only going to make the decision more difficult! OldG
Thanks Wednesday, March 25th, 2009 at 4:59 pm
Hey, thanks! I got a folder in the mail from USC, and yeah...bummed on the UCLA waitlist, but it's ok. Where do you think you'll be going? hannahandmartin
Tuesday, April 14th, 2009 at 4:41 pm
haha! I'd love michigan, but I withdrew from the waitlist. I'm going to Duke! You? hannahandmartin
Yep, I'm thinking Pepperdine Tuesday, April 21st, 2009 at 4:04 pm
The new rankings were just leaked, and Pepperdine continued its march to the top 50 by climbing from #59 to #55 this year.

Mich v. pepperdine Sunday, April 26th, 2009 at 6:35 pm
If you attended ASW at Mich like I did, I don't know how this could be a question! I enjoyed my pepperdine visit but even with a significantly higher cost, Michigan is well worth it! PM with questions I hope you deposited! as0668

No, I never got a call. I just received an email. Hope that helps! JLovinChick
good grammatical catch Tuesday, May 12th, 2009 at 2:23 am
Changed it. I think my masters in in a quantitative field has finally started to screw with my writing ability a bit. Might take me a few months to get it all back. So are you going to Pepperdine? At first I didn't think they had what I wanted, but I think I want to study through their Palmer Center for Entrepreneurship. I've been undecided about exactly what areas related to business and finance I want to pursue, whether at law school or not, but it has started to become clearer to me the last few months. Note: You're passing up a lot w/GW's offer, and if it matters, if GW accepts me off of the waitlist I will not attend. I'm looking for a school where I can be at the top of the class and also enjoy life. I haven't really seen better than Pepperdine for this. Peace. – Erik5150
GW is a GREAT school, but Saturday, June 13th, 2009 at 8:30 pm
I personally just want to stay in California. So for me, moving to DC would be a pain. For example, I got into George Mason, and the tuition is pretty cheap there, but I am choosing Pepperdine over it, and would even if I got no money from Pepperdine. I just think the west coast would be more comfortable than moving to the east coast. Plus, again, class rank will matter too. I'd much rather finish in the top 5-10% at a school I enjoyed than in the top 40% while also being stressed out of my mind for 3 years. But that's just me. Hey, on a different note, where are you going to live? I'm getting ready to get an apartment as as my masters is over. Erik5150
