Extra Curricular Information

August 5th, 2009 - Ended up choosing William and Mary with a Graduate Fellowship. Wild ride, and I have to say that even after my acceptance I didn't think I would go. But after visiting and hearing so many good things about the school (and its extremely reasonable cost) I would have been a fool to turn this offer down! Looking forward to law school in Williamsburg!

Most of my Fee Waivers are by requesting each school individually.

Additional info & updates

Ask for more (or some)money. It never hurts, and it can certainly help!

Dates are Approximate:
6/20/09- Just received a letter from Brooklyn (at which I withdrew) offering me $10,000 more in merit aid. Very strange and would have perhaps been persuasive if I had decided to go to law school in NYC.

3/23/09- At long last I received my rejection letter from USC.

2/17/09- I have been and will continue to visit the schools on my list. Seems to be trimming down a little bit now though.

01/30/09- In at Villanova!(likely my final straight acceptance) Also Waitlist letter from Vanderbilt (a GOOD thing)

01/24/09- In at UC Hastings! Great school! Received WL notification from BU in the same mail call, though.

01/22/09- Rejected at UCLA via mail.

01/21/09- Good news from Seton Hall with 30k/yr! Expecting a decision or two more this week or next.

01/13/09- In at Brooklyn via e-mail! Also mailed a tempting scholarship offer from Tulane! Going to have to start scheduling some visits...

01/9/09- Accepted via Phone Call at Cardozo with scholarship! In via status checker at Tulane! Great day!

01/7/09- Accepted at Temple! Happy New Year!

12/30/08- Big Day. Accepted at Loyola with approximately half-tuition! Accepted at Northeastern with 8.5k/yr! But rejected at GMU in small envelope.

12/23/08- Accepted at American via large folder in USPS express envelope!

12/20/08- Separate letter from Santa Clara notifying my selection for Emery Scholarship. A generous 14k/yr!

12/19/08- Accepted at Albany Law of Union. 25k/yr dean's scholarship!

12/17/08- First Rejection: BC in small envelope.

12/15/08- Drexel Acceptance by way of phone call. 30k/yr scholarship. WOW

11/24/08- Santa Clara acceptance in big envelope. Great to have a West Coast acceptance!

11/21/08- UConn acceptance in small white envelope. 10k for first year! Helps to defray cost before instate tuition kicks in.

11/19/08- First Acceptance: William and Mary!

11/05/08- I have been applying for the last two weeks and I am now officially poor. Hoping for a couple of decisions before 2009.

10/24/08 - Still working on applications, hopefully will have a few out by next week.

10/07/08 - Took my first LSAT this weekend...

I am sure you have an American acceptance coming your way soon. They might be trying to yield-protect. You have such a good chance of getting into some of the higher ranked schools on your list b/c of your very good GPA, like W&M, where you are already in. I've got you on my watch list. Good luck!!

Good luck

I noticed our numbers are the same...wishing you many acceptances to come.

I actually applied to UCLA Early Decision. If I don't get in then I will definitely hold out on Cornell! (But I won't hold my breath). I am considering applying to William and Mary, but I will wait and see what UCLA does before I spend the extra $. What are your first choices? I also applied to BC, so I guess we should hear back from them very soon.

Congrats!

Congrats on your acceptances so far! Good luck with the rest of your cycle!

Tuesday, December 09 2008 at 07:00 PM

Well done on Drexel man, great scholarship.

BLS scholarship
Saturday, December 13 2008 at 07:00 PM

hey man, congrats on your admissions so far...we have very similar numbers. We are both in at brooklyn law, what do you think the chances of students like us getting $$$ from BLS?? Also, have your scholarship offers to date come via email or mail? Any input would be appreciated, thanks and good luck with the rest of your cycle

Tuesday, December 09 2008 at 07:00 PM

Hastings! Congrats man!

Tuesday, December 09 2008 at 07:00 PM

Any closer to a decision? What have you narrowed it down to? Best of luck! I'm in Atlanta checking out Emory...pretty cool!

Tuesday, December 09 2008 at 07:00 PM

The law school itself seemed really great. Nice facilities, student body, and faculty. I'm unsure about Nashville and the south, but you can decide on that part. I hear you on the Financial Aid packages. We shall see... Off to New York!

Where for you?
Tuesday, December 09 2008 at 07:00 PM

Tulane? That's some big money! I finally chose Emory. Real tough versus Illinois...

Thanks!
Tuesday, December 09 2008 at 07:00 PM

Thank you! Best of luck on your decision. I had 2 friends who attended W and M and really loved it. Goodluck on the rest of the wait lists as well. Amazing this process is almost over...
