--------------------------------------------

2/27 - Got accepted to Valpo. Not really interested in going there but it is nice to get accepted! (letter came in 3/3)

3/3 - Waitlisted at Cardozo. Saw that a decision was made via status checker, received email about 10 minutes later. A bit bummed since thats my top pick but it's better than a reject.

-- I sent an email to Cardozo on 3/6 accepting my spot on the waitlist as well as for being considered for their May program. Sent an LOI as well.

3/6 - Rejected at Loyola. Don't mind though, don't think I'd want to move back to Chicago.

3/6 - Waitlisted at Washington and Lee. Surprised considering I thought it would be a flat out rejection.

3/9 - Requested a phone interview with W&L. Hopefully all goes well! I also received acceptance from JMLS via email.

3/27 - Accepted to NYLS via status checker and South Texas via status checker. ST email came later in the day while NYLS came in the mail and an email came a few days later.

4/10 - Received additional scholarship money from NYLS ($7,500 to $15,000) I'm pretty set on NYLS as I really want to practice in NY and the faculty and current students are absolutely amazing and have been helping me so much.
