Additional info & updates

Yay....i'm actually going to Law School.
Jan. 17th-Samford Acceptance came today via snail mail. (big white packet)
Mercer Acceptance came in two envelopes

Went to an Open House at Mercer and absolutely loved it! Seemed like a very close knit community. If any one has any information about the school I'd love to hear it.
Thanks and good luck to all!

2-27 Rejection letter from George Mason. Sad but I kind of expected it. Still anxiously awaiting responses, hopefully positive, from the others.

3-06 Waitlist letter from Tennessee. Relieved it wasn't a rejection, though not much better.

3-10 Online status check on UGA's website says that waitlist information has been mailed to me. Trying to stay positive, i mean at least it's not a rejection....

4-25 Sending off my withdrawel to UTK. Good luck to all of those that are still on the list, I hope you hear something soon.

4-28 Letter in the mail from UNC. Definitely not surprised by this one. It took them long enough.

5-16 Found out by phone call that I had been waitlisted at GSU on the 12th.

6-21 Rejected by UGA's online status checker.
On a more positive note I recieved a call from the Admissions office at GSU notifying me of my acceptance.

I am very excited to be a part of the class of 2009 of Mercer University's Walter F. George School of Law. Good luck to all.

no word yet

I haven't recieved any information from Samford about $$$... does anyone know if they offer it at the time of acceptance or maybe some time later?

hi
Saturday, November 12 2005 at 07:00 PM

sorry about american..where did you go to undergrad?

congrats
Sunday, October 16 2005 at 08:00 PM

congratuations on samford....i believe they offer after acceptance (my friend got in a few weeks ago, got scholarship info a week after.) i also applied there and got a letter today indicating i have an account where i can login to computer services...but no acceptance yet? did this happen to you as well?

Mercer
Saturday, December 10 2005 at 07:00 PM

I didn't apply to Mercer because I really don't like Macon and I'm willing to give up some prestige for a town I really like, DC, Birmingham or Athens.

Mercer
Monday, January 16 2006 at 07:00 PM

I also got accepted.. Are you strongly considering it? I'm going to visit this week. Congrats!

Thanks
Monday, January 16 2006 at 07:00 PM

for your reply! I'll keep ya posted.

GSU v. Mercer
Monday, January 16 2006 at 07:00 PM

I"m not sure. I'm in Macon right now and my Mercer visit is tomorrow along with GSU. I think GSU places better as far as jobs go, so I'd probably pick GSU over Mercer

Mercer V. GSU
Monday, January 16 2006 at 07:00 PM

After visiting both schools, I'd definately go to GSU over Mercer... I don't think it's lookin very good though because I applied so late and my LSAT score is so low. I talked to the director of admissions and she said that there's a committee meeting this week and the last one is in 2 weeks or so, and that it's "very competitive"-- in other words "your scores aren't high enough to apply here this late.." haha Good luck to you!

eeek!
Sunday, October 02 2005 at 08:00 PM

We are really close in numbers...sorry to hear about your waitlist! Im sure I have the same fate coming, but remember, its NOT a rejection! Good luck with the process!

Reception
Thursday, October 20 2005 at 08:00 PM

I had planned to go to the reception on the 21st, but then I realized I had a test in my class that night, so doesn't look like i am going to make it.

Any luck finding out about Mercer? I am trying to make a decision and know very little about Macon or the school but am definitely intrigued.

Did they actually use the word waitlist in the letter you received, or did they sya you are on hold until such and such date? thanks

Mercer v. Samford
Thursday, October 20 2005 at 08:00 PM

Which way are you leaning right now? I went and visisted Mercer last weekend, and actually really enjoyed Macon. Of course i don't let myself not have fun in places like that lol. How was the admitted students reception for Mercer last weekend?

re fsu
Tuesday, August 16 2005 at 08:00 PM

haha.. thats along the same lines as the letter i received from them except mine said we have placed your app on hold and we will try to reach a decision by May.

I went to the Mercer reception and I am in love with the school (I might be partial b/c I went to undergrad there). But it is very close knit and while Macon is definately not a city it is not totally dead and for those weekends when you aren't studing and really want to change scenery Atlanta is only an hour away. I am familiar with the area and can answer questions for you. Also Mercer does have a very good reputation especially in Georgia. I have talked to people in various areas in the state through my job and they all think highly of Mercer Law Graduates and like the program offered there-especially the Legal Writing Certificate. Also since it is a small school the alumni network is really good.

Hi! I was at the reception as well. I believe I am falling in love with mercer more and more these days. =) I was wondering, where would you suggest living? Thanks for your comments and I may see you there next fall.

Mercer
Tuesday, March 21 2006 at 07:00 PM

I emailed you the housing information because my response was long...

GSU
Monday, January 16 2006 at 07:00 PM

Their last cycle was supposed to start the very end of March, so you probably were held over till the last cycle for review. I'm not sure how long it usually takes but I know this is their last one so you should hear back soon.

UGA Waitlist
Wednesday, August 17 2005 at 08:00 PM

I actually found out I was accepted off of the waitlist by the online status check. Thanks for the congrats. Good luck to you!

Congrats!
Wednesday, May 10 2006 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on the GSU acceptance. I was checking the online status page all week. Mercer seems to be higher ranked by US News, but from what I hear GSU has a better rep here in Atlanta. I think either school would be an excellent choice.
