11/18 Got into Georgia today!!!! I'm glad for the great start.
12/03 My Georgetown Status Checker changed to Decision today, so the wait begins...
!2/06 Well, I was deferred at Georgetown, that's at least better than a rejection, I'll keep hope alive.
12/10 Got into American today. Big package with a lot of info, very excited.
12/11 God is good. I wake up and the first thing I see is a new email from Fordham, saying that I have been accepted. Needless to say, its been an amazing 24 hours.
Florida State's status checker just went to "decision mailed". I hope all the other decisions come this rapidly in bunches.
12/12 University of Florida's status checker has changed to "decision letter in transit". I hope its all good news.
Received a phone call from Florida State, telling me I was accepted.
12/14 Got Accepted to Florida. For some reason, didn't check the mail yesterday, did today.
12/15 Cornell status checker just updated to decision. The wait is gonna be killer.
Found out I was deferred to Cornell today. Still got a shot, which is always good.
1/04 Well, got both good news and bad news, as I arrived back from the holidays. Rejected from NYU, wasn't surprised, but received Merit aid from Fordham!
1/06 Got a fee waiver from Duke, so decided to apply.
1/13 Status Checker for Illinois says I'm on hold for second review, so gotta wait a little longer.
1/21 Another great day, another great acceptance. Got into WUSTL today and couldn't be more ecstatic.
Got a phone call from the Dean of Admissions at Emory, this day just can't get any better.
1/23 Got a fee waiver from UPenn, so whats $12 bucks.
Status Checker for Vanderbilt went to decision, my nerves will be killing me over the weekend.
1/27 Received a merit Scholarship from UF today. This makes the decision process harder
1/29 Got waitlisted at Vandy, sucks but could have been worst
2/2 Waitlisted at Columbia, good to know i'm still in the game
2/3 Went to Decision Mailed with Chicago, I would be extremely happy with anything other than a rejection
2/4 Received a merit Scholarship from FSU today. Can only thank God for his continued Blessings.
2/6 Got a weird email from Illinois, I guess I was waitlisted.

3/10 UF increased their merit aid award today and removed any restrictions on it. I can only be thankful.
3/12 Currently in New York checking out Fordham, and really loving the city and school.
Day just got even better with a big scholarship from Washington St. Louis. Just when I thought, I knew where I was heading...
3/13 Waitlisted from Michigan today. It hurts, but its whatever at this point.
3/18 Waitlisted at Duke. No surprise here.
3/27 Put on Reserve @ Cornell.

4/22 Went to Decision rendered for UPenn, not expecting much. Chicago went to Decision for 4/21. Hopefully something good.
4/26 Rejected from Penn and Chicago. A hard way to end a cycle I guess.
5/4 God is good!!! Just received the phone call from Michigan, accepting me into the Summer session.
My cycle is over and I will be withdrawing from everywhere else.
I'm a Wolverine!!!

Good Luck Saturday, November 15th, 2008 at 5:50 pm
We have nearly identical stats and it looks like we're applying to several of the same schools. Wishing you all the best this cycle! Golden
similar schools Tuesday, November 18th, 2008 at 1:49 pm
Hey! we are also applying to similar schools.. good luck this cycle! Do you have a top choice? soldiva
congrats! Tuesday, November 18th, 2008 at 6:56 pm
Congrats on UGA acceptance! We have similar numbers and are both URM. I'm still waiting though...*crosses fingers* Good Luck with the other schools!
Btw, do you go to UF? (I do, I just noticed you go to a public school in Florida) green918
Wednesday, November 19th, 2008 at 9:33 pm
Well I was hoping to hear from Florida State and UGA before Thanksgiving, but I'm starting to lose hope on that one, so I might add a few other schools to the list. Staying in Florida is appealing because it is so cheap! Do you have a #1 choice? green918
Emory Friday, November 21st, 2008 at 11:57 am
Hello, did Emory send you an email saying they received your application? vickitoria
Tuesday, November 25th, 2008 at 6:29 pm
I think I would choose Georgia if I got into all three, but it would be really hard to give up the in state tuition. I've been waiting for almost a month so I'm starting to get anxious! – anonymous
good luck! Tuesday, November 25th, 2008 at 9:57 pm
we have very similar numbers and applying to some of the same schools! i hope everything works out well for you! royal34
u of G Monday, December 1st, 2008 at 3:57 pm
COngratss.. American just sent me a thick package today letting me know i was in. Im just glad im going to law school next year!! Ideally, what choice is U of G.. top one? soldiva
UGA Wednesday, December 3rd, 2008 at 8:56 am
Congrats on UGA. It looks like the first acceptance for the both of us. macjags07
Thursday, December 4th, 2008 at 7:56 am
Looks like we have some similar indexes at schools. Goodluck with everything. Where did you go to school in FL?

What are your top choice schools? fergi85
Congrats Thursday, December 4th, 2008 at 8:10 pm
On UGA!! I just got in two days ago. Good luck with the rest of your cycle! starrykc16
Friday, December 5th, 2008 at 1:36 pm
Congrats on your acceptances. legaldiva
Georgetown... Saturday, December 6th, 2008 at 5:56 pm
Sighs, looks like we've both been deferred at Georgetown. In fact, right now we have the exact same news, in at UGA, deferred at Georgetown. And the wait continues...yes, we'll have to keep hope alive. LOL. macjags07
Top choice Sunday, December 7th, 2008 at 11:50 am
I didn't really have a top choice going into the cycle b/c I was really upset about my lsat score. After doing more research, I'm really looking into going to UGA. I even found a firm I really like in ATL and would like to try to get a summer associate position at and they take numerous students from UGA. starrykc16
LOL... Sunday, December 7th, 2008 at 3:25 pm
It's the truth though. Same decisions so far = twins. We'll get through.
macjags07
Monday, December 8th, 2008 at 1:12 am
Thanks!
I'm sure yours will be coming shortly. I'm still jealous of your uga acceptance though ;-) green918
Monday, December 8th, 2008 at 7:35 am
I am a Gator. My top choices/dreams are Northwestern, Cornell and UPenn. If none of those work out, I will most likely end up at UGA over UF. fergi85
Congrats Monday, December 8th, 2008 at 10:34 am
Congrats on UGA!! And I'll be sending you and macjags positive thoughts on Georgetown :) Golden
Anytime Monday, December 8th, 2008 at 9:49 pm
And thanks, I need all the positivity I can get too :) Waiting is the worst... Golden
Congrats! Friday, December 12th, 2008 at 3:39 am
Forham! I am hoping for similar results, good luck with the rest of your cycle. Derrida
Congrats on .... Sunday, December 14th, 2008 at 8:34 pm
Fordham!!! Your acceptances are really flowing in right now. I'm sure they'll keep rolling in. macjags07
Sunday, December 14th, 2008 at 9:24 pm
Now I'm jealous of two schools! lol Congrats on FSU! And I was right about your UF acceptance being on the way. Is Florida up for consideration for you? I bet that in state tuition is looking even more enticing now that you've been accepted. green918
Good Luck! Monday, December 15th, 2008 at 7:10 am
on Cornell, I went to decision 12/09! starrykc16
Cornell... Monday, December 15th, 2008 at 8:52 am
I'm crossing my fingers for you on your decision at Cornell. macjags07
FSU... Tuesday, December 16th, 2008 at 12:24 pm
Did Florida State's status checker go from "application complete" to "decision mailed" or did it have an intermediate status like "file in review"? SHSU2008grad
Thanks Wednesday, December 17th, 2008 at 8:22 pm
And a big congrats on all your good news so far!! Golden
congrats on acceptances Friday, January 2nd, 2009 at 1:48 pm

Thanks! Tuesday, January 13th, 2009 at 11:56 am
Best wishes with U of Ill. I'm rooting for you. macjags07
Thank you... Thursday, January 15th, 2009 at 7:34 pm
I'm still on cloud nine and hoping I don't wake up from a dream. But it still seems so unreal. Best wishes to you...I'm rooting for you for UMich and all of your other fav picks. macjags07
Thanks Friday, January 16th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
And congrats on the Fordham acceptance and scholarship :-)
Still nothing from Georgia for me...I'm really wanting to make a decision soon so hopefully I will hear something. green918

congrats on you cycle. where are you in florida? FAMU03
LMAO... Wednesday, January 21st, 2009 at 5:00 pm
This is hilarious because that's beginning to seem like a real possibility. I see we have 5 schools in common that we've yet to hear from. If we hear at the same time, I'm officially convinced that's the case!! macjags07
Congrats... Wednesday, January 21st, 2009 at 5:03 pm
on all your acceptances...I'm still waiting to hear back from a lot of those schools... B5A2D1
Thanks Thursday, January 22nd, 2009 at 7:35 pm
And congrats on all of your acceptances as well!! Golden
Decision at Vandy Friday, January 23rd, 2009 at 11:51 am
I went decision today too...I'll cross my fingers for the both of us (though hopefully i'll get my letter today because I'm at Vandy undergrad) I don't think I'd make it thru the weekend wondering... B5A2D1
hey there Sunday, January 25th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
Greetings. First off, I just wanted to congratulate you. I am impressed by your acceptances and accomplishments! I am a fellow Univ of Florida hopeful and would love to be in your shoes!!!

By no means did I score as well as you did on the LSAT but I have spoken to UF law in order to make my application stronger. If you don't mind sharing what kind of topic you used for your PS i would really appreciate it. The law school has recommended that I portray my academic credentials as best as possible but i still have doubts on what my atual chances are. I also found out that this year's admission class will consist of 300 instead of 400. :( any advise would really help me out.

Thanks in advance for your time and best wishes for therest of the cycle.

Is it hard to make a decision? Monday, February 16th, 2009 at 8:17 pm
I have been accepted to a lot of the same schools that you have been accepted to. I am having a hard time deciding on which school to choose. Do you have the same problem? americanthadd

Friday, April 10th, 2009 at 8:28 pm
Congrats on all your acceptances, esp. UNC since that's where I'll be in the Fall (99.5% sure.) I went to UNC for undergrad and it's an awesome school. Matter of fact, I was on Franklin Street Monday night after we won the NCAA title :) Good Luck! Lawlover85
