Thanks!! At this point it's most likely Vanderbilt unless Texas comes through with some money or one of the waitlists works out.

Have you decided where you will attend? Did you do anything in particular to get off the Northwestern waitlist?

Well I thought it was going to be Texas, but I was really excited to get into Northwestern! And I think I just got lucky! I sent them a LOCI in early May but hadn't done anything since then.

Any tips on writing a successful LOCI to Northwestern?

Lawschool324 - I think it's still probably going to be Texas. I visited Northwestern last week, and it's an absolutely gorgeous school in a fantastic location, but I think Texas is just a better fit for me. Calgoldenbear - I'll PM you :)
