ADDITIONAL INFO & UPDATES

Waiting on IU-Indy. Praying everyday to get in off of the WL. fingers crossed.

5-10-12: At this point, I have sent two LOCI's, a diversity statement, a revised resume and a snail mailed LOR. maybe a third LOCI in the works? am i doing too much? lol

5-14-12: Withdrew from NIU and Valpo. Waiting patiently on the IU-Indy Waitlist. Will probably sit on the others as well. No harm in waiting on a few. IU-Indy STILL NUMERO UNO!

5-15-12: Have 2 LOR's in the works for the WLs

5-20-12 : Can i have a spot at IU-Indy?

5-24-12: visiting the school Tomorrow morning. been there plenty of times during my undergrad days at Purdue, but this time its for pushing that interest!

5-31-12: Tomorrow is finally the big day. june 1st! lets get some movement peoples!

6-5-12: Waitlist movement? i see some withdrawals. hopefully well see something after two weeks.

7-3-12: So, in the past few weeks I was accepted from Gonzaga, but I also withdrew from Gonzaga. This morning I received a feeler email from Syracuse telling me that they will be going to the wait list this week. Sent them a positive interest email. Still hoping for IU-Indy. I guess fate is saving the best for last!

7-12-12: So, i got the feeler email from Syracuse a week ago, and I was accepted today. Still waiting on the admissions packet and will be doing some major thinking soon.

I do not. I am seriously hoping I get in though! I applied to the PT program, so I am hoping they may extend an offer my way....but I can't be too sure about that because of my "numbers."

I am sure you will get in! Your numbers are FAR better than mine. The only thing that gives me a slight advantage is my URM status, and the fact that I applied to the PT program. Other than that, there is nothing else. On a diff note, out of all the other schools that you were waitlisted to, I am SURE that you will get in to at least three of them. If you think you are in a rough position, I REALLY beg to differ. You WILL be attending an ABA accredited school (Tier 1 or 2). So relax. My WL extension was a sign of thanks, but no thanks. They were just being polite.

I am in the same boat as you. Indiana U is my number 1 and I really do not want to go anywhere else as well. I was really hoping that I'd be invited to the summer program......but I can only still hope and dream that one day when I check my email (before May 31st) it'd say Congratulations! What a dream! WE (or rather, YOU) will get in.

We may not here back before June. We have to be VERY REALISTIC! 1. June 1st is the last seat deposit. By then, they will know how many seats the can fill and how many of those seats are open to those on the WL. 2. With that, per Lindsey in the Admissions office said that they try to match the person they take off of the WL with the persons numbers/demographics who withdrew. Does that make sense? So for you, I am sure someone with your numbers will withdraw, hence opening up a spot for you. As for me, its 50/50 I can only hope. So my guess is you will be admitted by June 22nd. If not, before. As for me, if I do not here back by June 29th/July 6th. I am out...AKA Rejected!

I'm just going by the date you received your WL decision. I figure after June 1st, it should take them 3 weeks tops to get back to you. Assuming there is no order (which I believe/think there is), by June 22nd, or that following Monday, they should for sure know if they really DO or DONT want you.
