Additional Information

8/31/09 - Cancelled the September LSAT date, I'll stick with the 160.

10/22/09 - Just checked the status online at USD and a decision was rendered and mailed on the 20th. This will be my first decision and I am nervous!!!

11/02/09 - Waitlisted at Notre Dame today via snail mail. I didn't expect to get in and am fairly happy I still have a shot. Letter states they usually take 25-50 people per year from the waitlist.

11/4/09 - Accepted to Santa Clara today via the online status checker.

11/9/09 - Accepted to Valparaiso with full scholarship for three years. This was the first school I applied to in order to see how the process went. I have already withdrawn.

11/10/09 - Accepted to Ohio State this morning via email! My first tier 1 school! Very excited...

11/27/09 - A lot came in the mail today. Denial from UCLA...no surprise. Acceptance from Villanova and acceptance from Chapman with full 3 year scholarship.

12/2/09 - Got an email from Iowa today...I'm in!

12/4/09 - Status checker at University of Maryland says "decision made". Hmm...Accept, Waitlist, or Deny?

12/11/09 - Got accepted at University of Maryland via snail mail today and received a $15,000 scholarship for my first year at Santa Clara if I choose to attend.

12/15/09 - Got accepted to UC Hastings today via email! Also, accepted at University of San Francisco via email today, but who cares...I'm in at Hastings!

12/22/09 - Received a scholarship from University of Miami in the amount of $23,000 per year in the mail today. Also, acceptances from Southwestern and University of Colorado. However, the acceptance from UC was for somebody else! I called, they apologized and informed me that they will re-send MY acceptance.

01/02/10 - I created a facebook group for the UC Hastings Class of 2013. If you've been accepted and plan on attending please join.

01/23/10 - Loyola status changed to decision. I hope it comes with money! No decision from Pepperdine is frustrating me. Don't I get any pull for being an alumni?

01/26/10 - Loyola came today, accepted with no money. Really Loyola? Judging by last years numbers I was expecting a half scholarship. For full price, I think I'll go to a tier I. Excuse the rant but I am so pissed off!

1/28/10 - Scholarship info came today...full tuition at California Western and $22,000 from University of San Diego. I'm excited about USD!

02/05/10 - Status checker at University of Houston says I got denied! LOL, I was not considering UH anyways but seriously, denied? I was angry for about 5 seconds until I checked my status at UC Davis...accepted! So, Davis or Hastings? Any input?

03/06/10 - Got accepted to Emory today with a $10,000 a year scholarship! I am completely shocked that I got in...

You have a great chance at alot of the schools you are applying to (Especially with your uniquness and softs) I can't wait to see you post your "accepted"'s. Good luck with the cycle-- all the best. -Ren- socalren
USD Decision rendered Friday, October 23rd, 2009 at 9:30 pm
Wow, that would drive me crazy to know that its coming in the mail. The decisions isn't even for me, yet it's making me anxious. I hope you feel confident about it. Good luck, and be sure to let us know how it goes! segwy
USD Tuesday, October 27th, 2009 at 6:27 pm
I still have not received anything! This is ridiculous. I called the school and they said that even though the "decision mailed" date is 10/20 it doesn't actually go out for a couple of days. bcoen
USD Thursday, October 29th, 2009 at 2:49 pm
Got my acceptance from USD today! I'm so happy to have the first one out of the way and to know that the worst school I will go to is a decent tier II. Totally excited! bcoen
Congrats! Thursday, October 29th, 2009 at 3:25 pm

Hastings/Withdrawing other apps? Saturday, January 2nd, 2010 at 6:05 pm
Congrats on all of your acceptances!! Do you definitely plan to attend UC Hastings (I saw your post re: the Facebook group)? If so, when do you think you will withdraw your other applications? Congrats again on a great application cycle thus far! eslnyc
