Additional info & updates

10/16: Tough luck on LSAT :( Some rethinking to do...

11/22: All apps done except for Yale, 250 word essay definitely not easy.

12/18: JR1 email at Harvard

12/19: In at NYU via snail mail :)

12/23: JR1 interview

01/25: In at Columbia via snail mail

01/29: Withdrew from Columbia, won't take it over HLS

03/19: WL at Michigan, promptly withdrew my app. Only Stanford left and my cycle is over!

03/30: Withdrew from Toronto, sad to say no to my alma mater but had to do it eventually...

03/30: Intellectual property scholarship from NYU, only $67,500 over 3 years almost certainly not enough to draw me away from HLS

Hey, near number twin! Good luck with your app cycle. You have quite the list of schools there (I am applying to most of those, as well)...Are you applying to any other schools as backups?

Congrats on Harvard!

Wow that's an amazing GPA for an Engineering/Physics major (well, actually, for any major!). Congrats!
