3/19/12 - Got my first decision and it was Accepted @ Syracuse. Received a packet in the mail with a t-shirt (which I will be wearing to watch Syracuse BBall games from now on), a bumper sticker, housing info, and the letter. Was kinda happy to get the decision through snail mail. Felt good to get the package. Waiting to hear about any possible scholarships and other aid. Very important to me, seeing as though I wanna do public interest law.
- Also heard from Cornell. I'm on their reserve list. Will be re-evaluated in May and then will either get in, rejected, or waitlist. Gives my last recommender time to get her letter in. Definite first choice, but have to let Syracuse know by April 15 (with deposit)

3/26/12 - Letter from Syracuse's Dean offering $27,000 per year scholarship

3/30/12 - Got an email today from American's School of Public Affairs telling me I got into their half of the JD/MPA joint degree. If only the law school would take me off the waitlist.... I would love D.C.
