Good softs.

FW University of Maine-------STRONG CONSIDER-------ACCEPT W/$

Update 1: Accepted to Roger Williams honors program with $35,000 per year scholarship. Accepted to New Hampshire via email, waiting for mail to see scholarship offer.

Update 2: Just got my RW packet in the mail, still waiting on NH. Accepted to Vermont accelerated program via email, scholarship info should be in the mail.

Update 3: New Hampshire is offering $25,000 per year, with a 3.2 GPA. Got accepted to Seattle which is one of my top choices! Hopefully they offer some scholarship info in the mail because I need that to afford school.

Update 4: Accepted at Lewis & Clark! This was another top choice for me!

Update 5: Accepted at Maine via status checker.

Update 6: Accepted at Denver with $21,000 per year via email! I really want to live in Colorado, so this is great!

Update 7: Got an email from Maine saying they're giving me a scholarship but it didn't say what the scholarship is. I also got a letter in the mail from them that doesn't specify an amount either. Accepted at Michigan State with scholarship (though it doesn't say what the scholarship amount is yet). Got my packet from Denver today and it had a short, hand-written note at the bottom, which I thought was really awesome. They are definitely at the top of my list right now along with Lewis & Clark.

Update 8: Accepted at University of Iowa! Super surprised about that.

Update 9: Accepted at Chicago-Kent with $20,000 per year, no GPA stipulation. "Decision Rendered" at Colorado according to status checker, but I haven't gotten an email from them yet, so I'm definitely sweating.

Update 10: First denial is from my top choice--Colorado. I'm honestly surprised because, even though my numbers aren't quite up to their par, my softs are good and I wrote my most specific essay for them. Maybe it's not a total loss, though, as the representative at the law school forum I attended was not a very nice person.

Update 11: Waitlisted at Maryland. Pretty surprised they didn't outright reject me.

Update 12: In at UConn

Update 13: Waitlisted at William & Mary and Richmond. Pretty surprised that Richmond didn't accept me, considering every other T2 school offered me scholarships, but it wasn't where I wanted to live anyway. Also surprised I didn't get outright rejected from W&M, woo!

Update 14: I got a surprise post-seat-deposit-deadline funding offer from UConn. I had already forfeited my seat because I couldn't attend without funding, but when I called and explained what was going on, they were very nice and let me retain my seat. I'm excited to go to UConn!

Update 15: Accepted at Maryland! Probably still going to UConn though :).
