Extra Curricular Information

Not a whole lot... Worked for college radio, but I held a part-time job at a coffee shop all through school, so it's obvious that I didn't have a lot of free time.

Additional info & updates

Worked all through school. Currently doing work in film/video production. Did some volunteer work for 3 political campaigns. Definitely have good LORs and my personal statement is pretty strong (I got lucky, 3 people are editing it for me.)

All applications electronic through LSAC on the web. Overall, I'd say it's worth it.

$15,000/year from George Washington
$7,000/year from University of Michigan
$10,000/year from Temple
"Dean's Merit Scholarship" from American - Not sure what the number on that is....
$25,000 over 5 semesters from Duke

Beware the ides of March.... rejected at Harvard on 3/15
Re-waitlisted @ UVirginia on 3/21... I'm going to withdraw

Georgetown, baby! After visiting Georgetown and receiving a pretty damned generous financial aid package, I've pretty much decided on Georgetown (barring an acceptance from someplace like Columbia). DC here I come!

on all your acceptances! I had a quick question about NYU, did you get deferred to regular admission or just waitlisted for this year? I have very similar numbers as you and NYU is my dream school... I'm wondering if they are going to wait list me

thanks!
