Scholarship money is over 3 years
3 LSAT scores - 159,159,162

1/13 - Email acceptance from Rutgers-Camden

1/20 - Thick white envelope from Rutgers-Newark. Same scholarship $ as Camden, but lower GPA required to maintain same amount in 2nd and 3rd years.

1/23 - In at Kent by email. 3 for 3 - very exciting.

1/26 - In at Denver by email. Finally notified complete at Colorado. The email said they might not have a decision until late may - wow.

1/30 - Kent scholarship info came seperate with snail mail acceptance letter. Interesting choice - either accept $10k/year with chance to lose it without maintaining a certain GPA, or accept $6k/year without any strings. Literally gambling with my scholarship money.

2/9 - In at UConn! Acceptance came via regular mail. This was an exciting one.

2/12 - First rejection. Hastings by regular mail. Fully expected this one.

2/13 - NYLS acceptance by regular mail. Scholarship is $30k in the first year, fully renewable if place in the top 15% of the class. Drops to nothing without a minimum GPA of 3.1

2/14 - First waitlist. Tough one. Temple via regular mail.

2/17 - Rutgers-Camden increased their scholarship offer to $10k/year by a letter in the mail.

3/2 - After a long gap, another rejection. Maryland via regular mail. I'm surprised how many schools are left that I haven't heard from yet. I'm getting a little anxious.

3/3 - I called Brooklyn to check my status, and the person tells me that they hadn't sent out the letter yet but its a waitlist. Just like that. That was a blow. I also received the Tulance acceptance by email which was nice. I may want to give them another look.

3/5 - Waitlisted at Fordham via status checker. Looks like my options in NY are getting slim, but this was probably the best I could hope for here.

3/6 - Tulane acceptance came in regular mail with nice $$. I heard the school was generous and it definitely helps me make my decision. $20k/year depends on maintaining a 3.0, otherwise reduced to half. Very appealing.

3/16- BC rejection finally came in the mail. Not sure what took them so long.

3/20 - American waitlist via regular mail

3/26 - Finally heard from the last one. Waitlisted at Cardozo by regular mail. Its strange to be waitlisted for a program that starts in 2 months.

3/28 - And it looks like I'll be at Tulane in the fall! I sent my deposit today, but I'm still active on the other waitlists so I'll update those if they change. I haven't fully decided what I'll do yet if I get in to one of them.

5/27 - Brooklyn full time acceptance came via email off the waitlist. Ultimately decided to turn it down after getting the scholarship details.

5/28 - And the next day, Temple acceptance off the waitlist via email. Also turned down to stick with Tulane. Same day told by Cardozo via email I would not get in off their waitlist.

8/27 - Rejected from American waitlist by regular mail. FYI - started at Tulane 3 days ago.

9/1 - Rejected from Fordham waitlist by regular mail.

That's all of them. I hope this helps people in the application process. If you have questions let me know. I know other profiles helped me.
