Congrats on your acceptances

Tuesday, September 03 2013 at 02:26 PM

Thank you !

Congrats on those acceptances! I hear ya on QU. No sense going if you have better, closer, and hopefully cheaper options, which it looks like you do. Good luck!

Tuesday, November 19 2013 at 07:31 PM

Thanks, and congrats on so many acceptances already! I'm actually retaking the LSAT in February hoping to raise my score and improve my scholarship chances. Have you decided where you're leaning?

Tuesday, November 19 2013 at 07:31 PM

I'm actually leaning that way, too. It will depend on my February retake, I think - but even with a full ride I'd have to consider leaving very carefully because going anywhere but CUNY means uprooting my family.

Sunday, April 21 2013 at 05:43 PM

I see NYLS decision finally came for you. Congrats!

Tuesday, November 19 2013 at 07:31 PM

Oops, posted this on my page by mistake. I'm too used to Facebook: Lol I just had a couple of status updates. Finally under review for real, I think. Look for date changes on your status checker. I'm pretty sure no one had really looked at my file before Monday.

Tuesday, November 19 2013 at 07:31 PM

Decision from Buffalo, finally! Don't worry, I'm sure you'll get in, do you think you'd want to go? What date did you go under review? I still haven't had a status change...

Nice!
Tuesday, July 09 2013 at 01:37 AM

Congratulations on all the acceptances! You have a lot of options, and options = power

Appreciate the thought!
Tuesday, July 09 2013 at 01:37 AM

I'll stay strong! Good luck deciding which school to go to! You must be feeling great. I'm hoping you'll get into St. John's & UCONN Law as well! I have you on my watch list.

Nice Choice!
