ADDITIONAL INFO & UPDATES

4/6/02 - Waitlisted @ Howard (God is good!!!)
5 years ago I was rejected by all my schools and to know that I wasn't outright rejected is a blessing in and of itself.

Keeping hope alive.

4/10/12 - W/L @ MD
My numbers were on the lower end but look at God...i thought I was going to get rejected... I'm so freakin' ecstatic right now!!!

4/19/12 - Rejected @ UBalt
Thought I was waitlisted.

4/24/12 - Accepted @ UDC. Feels good to have one solid acceptance this cycle. I guess I'll be hanging around to see what is in store for me off of these waitlists...

5/3/12 - Received a call that I was accepted at University of Baltimore!!!!Their rejection was sent out by error. Happy about it.

6/25/12 - Got an email I was accepted to Howard University off the waitlist!!!! God is great! 3 out of four not too shabby!!

8/7/12 - Got into UMD law and will be getting my JD/MBA 2015!
For all my people of faith... Jeremiah 29:11 and Romans 8:28, is real!!!!!!! Tier 1 and didn't have the numbers for the program... SO FLOORED AND THANKFUL!

We sound like twins :) What was your LSAT score? Have you thought about looking at schools in the New England area? Were you a student at UMD @ CP?

Are you a full-time MBA student? I'd also like to do the dual MBA/JD and I'm currently a part-time MBA student at UMD.

Thanks. Good luck to you too. Hopefully we both get accepted...I'm on the waitlist right now. I don't think anyone does the dual degree on a part time basis.

I actually finished all my core requirements for the MBA program so I am done with the MBA part of the degree...all I would need is the JD portion.

Congrats on UDC! I'm on hold status and it's my top choice right now, fingers crossed!

Congrats on UB but I still feel UDC Law is a better school.

No it's wishful thinking but I'm not certain I'll get in to UMD. However, since I'm doing the MBA at UMD it wouldn't be feasible for me to do the JD at UBalt and the MBA at UMD at the same time. So if I don't get in to UMD Law, I will take the LSAT and reapply. Have you been in contact with Maryland at all? This waitlist is driving me crazy!

Do you plan on attending UDC or expect to withdraw your application this cycle? I'm on the waitlist and they they're waiting for withdrawals! :)
