wishing you the best of luck! =)

Keep the faith my friend! All things ARE possible!

Thanks!! I wish you the best of luck also. Have you considered the CLEO program? Apps must be postmarked by February 1st...

Hey man , thanks for the kind words . Good Luck to you too !

Thanks !! Our stats are pretty close.....no reason you shouldnt get it man! Best of luck and let me know what happens !!

Prayer works, expect miracles.

Good luck this cycle Frat!

Jack never gives up my friend! : ) Hope to see you at CSU!

"I went to CSU's visitation day in like October and they said you must apply to one or the other. If you apply for the SP (and are rejected) and would have otherwise been accepted in the regular PT program, you're out of luck. I skipped out on the SP because it seemed like it was more difficult to get into with people going through special circumstances, not just low numbers."

My application was complete around the second week of January. Good luck!!

I'm really pulling for you! And don't worry about the mistakes in your app...everybody makes them. :o)

Great News on CSU!! Jack is Back!! : )

I'm curious why you would want to relocate to CLE from Cali... Graduates from CSU do extremely well in the CLE market. But Ohio is a totally different world than Cali - not telling you anything you don't already know. I wish you were more excited, but you've got plenty of other ops pending!

Please keep your hope and pray each other, you'll be surprised when you receive your miracle!

For the message!

Hey justpraying, I just wanted to wish you good luck in this cycle! Rely on God and stay prayerful. He'll work everything out for you!

Thank you so much...good luck!

Its a blessing in disguise man trust me . I live about 15 minutes away from the Hofstra campus and its in a pretty bad area . I only applied because it was close to me........I wouldnt move from anywhere to live here for 3 years !! You have a lot of options still on the board......good luck man.. hopefully ill see you in Albany

Unless you are tops in your class I dont think youre going to get big law in NYC . NYC is super competitive and you have to compete with good local schools ( NYU , Fordham , Columbia , etc ) as well as people from all over the country . Albany is the capitol of NY state so it places really well for state and gov jobs from what I hear . As for the city of Albany , it is about 3 hours upstate ...so i dont know it too well . Im going to go check it out next month....ill let you know whats up

No I didnt express interest in it ....however the only reason was that I didnt know it existed haha . St. Johns was a huge reach for me but i figured what the hell . Did you apply for the summer program ?

thanks for the support and advice

I don't know much about CSU because I live on the east coast, but I will be visiting the school on March 29 for Admitted Student Day. Congrats on your acceptance to CSU as well.

I received the acceptance today in a large white envelope with a bunch of papers in it. Good luck!

Thanks for the congrats...for me CSU is a good fit because I want to enter criminal law and over 70% of Ohio judges & prosecutors come from CSU and its strong criminal law program. Being a non-trad, I also like the fact that over 20% of the school is non-trad and the average age is 27...a little higher than most law schools. That said, if you're looking for big law I think Case Western is a better choice because of its ranking and connections. I would think that Case is more portable too. I was surprised by the city of Cleveland...not as bad as I thought. If you're looking for NYC or Chicago then you'll be disappointed but I liked the city...purely my opinion of course! I liked the friendly people...everyone I met was polite and helpful....the reverse of what I experienced in Baltimore & Boston. Lastly...the staff I dealt with at CSU was superb...everyone went out of their way to make me feel welcome & answer all my questions. I was there on a regular work day, not an ASW day or anything and they still stopped whatever they were doing to help me. Anyway...hope this helps and good luck!

I haven't heard back except for a few rejections. One of my homegirls got into Seattle U today through the special admissions program. I am praying for the same. My status also changed at Denver, so I should have a decision from them in a few days.....I'm praying and hoping that something good happens!! Let's continue to be patient and optomisitc!! Something good will happen for us...

I am definitely going to the ASD on Saturday. I will only be going for the day and returning that evening. My flight from the east coast was pretty reasonable. You should try to schedule a personal visit. I agree with you about checking out the school before sending the deposit. This is the only acceptance I have received so far, so I will probably send my deposit in next week. I will send you a note on LSN with feedback about the ASD event.

Congratulations, I must say you have been very positive in your ordeal. I need a little advice. How did you study for the LSAT? If you can let me know how you prepared that would be great.

Keep your eyes ont the prize. To many schools it is all about the numbers!! Someone will give you a chance and you will make them proud!

It will all work out for you. Keep your head up! I feel the same way sometimes but I know it wasnt meant to be...

Congrats on TJSL, I was deferred also and am hoping for that acceptance. Good luck on Southwestern!

Congrats on the recent acceptance. Any idea on where you will be attending?

Southwestern is a great school!! There is a possibility that I will be attending also!! Way to go!! I am so happy for you!!!! Enjoy this and celebrate!

at southwestern! =D

yeah, i was getting really down for awhile there, but things are starting to look up. i like miami but i'm still going to wait out on my waitlists. =) i'll keep you updated!

Nice job with Southwestern. PLEASE dont forget to withdraw from FIU. A deferral means your application is still active and they could pick you and therefore reject someone else. Deferred apps are being reviewed this week, so the sooner you withdraw the better. Good luck at SW.

Cool, another SWU classmate! yes, I\'m moving from NYC to LA in roughly two months, should be pretty interesting. i\'m sure the switch from part-time to full-time will be quick and painless for you. Do you have aim or email? let\'s definitely keep in contact.

I\'ve never been to LA, but I am moving there in roughly two months. I have facebook as well. Look me up! i\'m hoping recruitment out of Southwestern will offset the expenses of attending. We definitely should chill when I get there. See you soon future classmate!
