Additional Information

Well, after more than a year put into the law school process, I am glad to say that it is complete. I will be attending the University of Dayton in the fall. Please feel free to ask questions or if you are going to UD as well, drop a line. I wish everyone else good luck as the cycle wraps up.

-----Cheers

7/2 Accepted to Dayton!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it happened. I was accepted via telephone call. This is where I will be enrolling in the fall. Good Luck to everyone else.

6/27- Wait Listed at UD. Kinda saw this coming. Gonna ride this out to the very end.

6/14- Accepted to Barry. Pretty excited, this now becomes a major player for me. I will have to find some time to jet down to Orlando and take a visit sometime very, very, soon.

5/17- Dinged at Cleveland State. No worries. I am now down to Ave Maria and Dayton. I still believe Dayton is my number one but Ave is really close. I am also waitlisted at a few schools and would like to hear from them before I make my final decision, especially Barry, Samford, and Ohio Northern.

5/7- got wait listed at Ohio Northern and at Samford. Overall I am pleased with this just because I have not been rejected and it is one step closer to being accepted.

5/2- Accepted to Jones School of Law (Faulkner University). Its good to get another acceptance on the board. Not too sure what I will do about it though.

4/20- Dinged at South Texas, just glad I heard something from somewhere for the first time in almost a month. Got e-mails from Barry and Samford stating that I will hear by the first week in May.

4/12- Attended Ave's Admitted Students Day this past weekend. Really fell in love with the school and learned a lot about the school that I didnt know before. Seeing as the deadline for Dayton's seat deposits are due Thursday I have a strong feeling that I will be hearing something soon from them (hopefully). If anyone has any questions about Ave Maria, feel free to ask and I will be glad to help.

4/5- Just sent in my $500 seat deposit to Ave Maria. As of now it is where I will be enrolling in the fall. This cycle for me is pretty much done however, I am still waiting on Dayton. Dayton is the only school that I would attend right now if I were admitted.

3/31- Denied at Florida Coastal today via e-mail. I am just glad I got a decision from them, I was tired of them just waiting and waiting. I am a little bummed out though as I thought it would be a good place to go to school. Oh well, still waitin on Dayton.

3/20- Just got back from spring break and I came back to a couple of rejections. Rejected at Arkansas LR (e-mail), then also rejected at Valpo, Mercer, and Charleston (snail mail). I am not too worried about any of this. I am still holding out on Dayton, and I just don't know what is taking so long.

3/12- Was Deferred at Samford. I am pretty excited about this, it is good to just not be rejected.

3/9- Waitlisted at Mississippi College (status checker). Gonna ride it out.

3/1- Out at Capital (small white envelope). Pretty disappointed, I thought that I would at least be waitlisted. I know Capital falls pretty much in line with Dayton, which is my number one choice so I hope this is not a sign of things to come. Also out at FIU, not really too concerned after all of the f*ck ups they have had this cycle I don't know if I would want to go there, however it is another school that I was interested in that is off the board.

2/25- Out at LSU.

2/23- Waitlisted at Charlotte. Gonna ride it out.

2/22- Out at Ole Miss. It was hard to take since they wanted my fall grades and I have shown a steady upward trend. I know I was on the extreme low end of things but atleast I know I am going somewhere.

2/18- Accepted to Nova SE AAMPLE program. Not too sure how I feel about this. Right now I would say no to it and stick with Ave.

2/12- Really weird, got a letter from Appalachia saying I had been accepted after I had already been denied for fall admission. Then I got accepted to St. Thomas' summer program. All in all really weird day.

2/11- Waitlisted today at Thomas Jefferson. Will probably ride it out since I only have one option so far. Didn't hear much this week which was kind of shocking.

2/5- Out at Cal Western. I had no desire to go there, I was out in San Diego for vacation and literally drove by the school and saw that they gave me a fee waiver so I applied.

2/4- out at Northern Kentucky today via e-mail. Not much of a surprise and I really don't have any desire to go to school in NKY.

2/3- dinged at Penn State (e-mail) and Miami (status checker) today . Not much of a surprise, it was a major stretch.

2/2- Accepted to Ave Maria today via e-mail. I could not be happier. My family lives in Sarasota and Naples is not a far drive. It is not my number one choice but it is such a relief to have been admitted somewhere. It is a strong possibility that I enroll.

2/1- dinged at Creighton today (small white envelope). Not surprised, really only applied because the gave me a fee waiver.

1/27- dinged at ASL today. Pretty shocked to be honest. I don't think I would have attended there anyway, however, it still would have been good to know that I have one in the bag. Gotta keep working.

1/19- rejected from Stetson University (snail). It was pretty high on my list but after taking a look at some of their numbers i realized that it would have been a stretch anyway.

1/18- received an e-mail from Ole Miss stating that they wanted my fall semester grades

1/15- had an interview at Dayton today and was very pleased with how it went.

1/14- got deferred today at Barry. Anything is better than a rejection. Its not high on my list but I would definitely go there.

Thanks for the comment and congratulations on Ave Maria. I am on their waitlist. Although Naples is an expensive place to live, it would be very nice. Good luck to you. trippstrat
Mississippi Tuesday, February 9th, 2010 at 10:56 am
Corey,
I applied to MC in November and I didn't hear back from them for almost three months. I'm sure you'll hear sooner though if you just applied. Good luck. trippstrat
FCSL Thursday, March 4th, 2010 at 7:31 am
Yea. The fees table kept changing. First the deposits disappeared and were replaced with the AAMPLE, but not those are gone. The 1st and final JD Deposits are now showing. It's so weird.

Thanks I really apperciate that. I'm hopoing to get one more acceptance, so at least I have a choice. Still hoping to hear good news from Dayton. mugrad06
Dayton Friday, March 5th, 2010 at 4:21 pm
Have you done your FAFSA yet? I just had an email from Dayton that they have received my FAFSA. I don't know my decision though. The email says- Before we can determine your financial aid eligibility and compile your award, you must be accepted to the University of Dayton. Visit our web site to apply to UD or check your admission status. But i never got a login/pin from them. Didn't know if anyone else has gotten something similar from them.

Dayton Monday, March 22nd, 2010 at 4:40 pm
Nope not a thing from them. I gave up on trying to figure out whats going on with my file and why its still in review. Just gonna wait for the letter and hope for the best I suppose. I don't know why it is taking them so long. – mugrad06
Capital Thursday, March 25th, 2010 at 10:45 am
What did your ticker status say for Capital when they made a decision? skimes11
Thank You Thursday, March 25th, 2010 at 6:20 pm
Thanks so much Corey! skimes11
Thursday, April 1st, 2010 at 2:36 pm
I was a little bummed by FCSL's ding, but oh well their attrition rate is almost 30%. Sitll nothing from Dayton - as of yesterday it was still in review. Getting a little annoyed by them. – mugrad06
UD Tuesday, April 13th, 2010 at 5:50 pm
Nope, not a thing still. I'll be in Cincy on Monday for an interview at Xavier, so I might swing over to Dayton and ask someone in person. Actually might just call again, but at this point I'm not too concerned. The fact my file has been in review for 14 weeks just doesn't sit right with me. You heard anything? mugrad06
Ave Thursday, April 15th, 2010 at 11:05 am
What'd you really like about the school? How did the students seem? I used to live in Naples so I know the area well but I am unsure about the school. I am still waiting to hear from other schools but I think I'm going to send in my deposit today. If you dont mind me asking, are you very religious? helpme2020
UD Monday, April 26th, 2010 at 12:45 pm
I called Dayton on Thursday and they said they were behind where they would ideally like to be in assessing applications.

I asked when they would know a decision on my application and they said a few weeks. Since you applied before me I'm assuming you will be receiving your decision shortly. skimes11
UD Friday, April 30th, 2010 at 6:02 pm
I can not believe you have not heard yet! That is insane! I figure that no news is better than bad news though! I was honestly surprised to hear from them in the form of an acceptance. I was sure that I was rejected.However, I only got an e-mail...Still no actual mail yet. But I sent mine in on the 1st of March so I am really surprised they haven't let you know. Its cool you are from Dayton! My family lives around Englewood area so I know a little about the outer area around there! But anyway, Good luck and I am sure they will let you know soon! mwoody1
Charlotte Wednesday, May 5th, 2010 at 1:42 pm
Just found out I'm wait listed at Charlotte too! I withdrew from Appalachian yesterday because BFE just isn't my style.

I was rejected from CSU and I applied after you so maybe good news is on the way!

Any new info on either of your pending schools? skimes11
ONU Thursday, May 13th, 2010 at 3:44 pm
My status changed for ONU on 5/3 but I have yet to receive any documentation. What did your online status say and what day did they change it? skimes11
School Wednesday, May 26th, 2010 at 3:12 pm
This process sucks! Is it done yet? Every time I call Dayton they tell my my application is still in review with the committee and to wait another 6-8 weeks. Its May 26th! I want to know where I will be living in 8 weeks! How do they just expect you to have all of your living arrangements and loans in check three weeks before classes start?

Sorry to hear about Cleveland State, they dinged me as well. My Ohio Northern status changed to Waitlist Accepted but of course when I call them they don't answer the phone either. Who knows.

What's your game plan? skimes11
ONU/UD Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010 at 11:23 am
I contacted Ohio Northern and they confirmed that "Waitlist Accepted" is in reference to us accepting the waitlist offer. I also received an email yesterday stating that we won't know any additional information until June 15th.

I'm still in committee review at Dayton and I hope that they notify me either way by the end of July. They are my top school and I really hope it works out. I'm extremely interested in the entertainment program, location, pro bono connections, organizations, and additional perks like distance to OSU for tailgating once a month :).

However, if UD, ONU and Charlotte fall through, I have a seat saved at Cooley.

Where is Ave Maria located?

Hey no problem I'm glad you enjoyed the site. Best of luck. I'll let you know what ONU says on the 15th. skimes11

I received waitlist information from Dayton today. skimes11

Letter in the mail! skimes11
UD Tuesday, June 29th, 2010 at 1:24 pm
Oh my goodness I know! My everything will be crossed for weeks!

I have a really good feeling about this one... what about you? skimes11
UD Tuesday, June 29th, 2010 at 1:41 pm
PS Where did you see that incoming students have a deposit due on the 1st? I saw June 15th as the second deposit but I could be wrong.

UD Saturday, July 3rd, 2010 at 12:14 pm
Haha yeah I'd say they are pretty reliable then as well! lol

I hope you have a great 4th of July weekend! skimes11
UD Monday, July 5th, 2010 at 6:52 pm
Awesome! Thats great news! They should have received my information on Friday so I'm going to give them a call on Wednesday if I haven't heard anything.

When did you send in the document they mailed us?

skimes11
UD Wednesday, July 7th, 2010 at 1:30 pm
No news yet and its driving me crazy. My patience is lacking. Friday I'm going to call if I haven't heard anything. skimes11
UD continued... daily update and frustra Thursday, July 8th, 2010 at 12:34 pm
Called today and they said I may not know until three days before orientation starts, but she made a note on my application stating that I would attend if given the opportunity and that I am very eager.

I also asked about ranking and she said since she isn't involved with that process she is unaware of any ranking system, if Dayton has one, or how it works at UD or other schools.

If only I would have applied sooner!!!! skimes11
CONGRATS!! Friday, July 9th, 2010 at 3:14 pm
Congrats on Dayton!! Looks like I will be seeing you in the fall!! mwoody1
UD Thursday, August 5th, 2010 at 11:30 am
Nothing. I'm going crazy. I've been so stressed that I've had such bad stomach aches I've been getting sick. And I'm running like 4 miles a day so I don't know how else to get rid of the stress.

ONU told me that I am at the top of their waitlist yet their class is full so unless someone drops I won't be in. skimes11
