Sorry about the Fordham WL! A couple other people with #s similar to mine were WL there yesterday. Thought you would get in with the 170. I love NYC and hope to work there but looking like I prob won't be going to law school there. Are you going to send a LOCI? Well best of luck rest of the cycle. Im sure you will have many great options!

Congrats/Good luck!
