4-16-07 Called Villanova today to check my status (based on a thread from LSD where people said they called and got their decision over the phone) and was told I am admitted and the letter is going in the mail tomorrow. Curious to see the financial aid package, but I will be withdrawing shortly unless by some miracle it ends up being cheaper to attend than Rutgers....

4-9-07 Mailed my seat deposit to Rutgers, so excited!

4-4-07 Withdrew from all accepted/waitlisted schools via email today. I know that I "unoffically" withdrew from some that had 4/1 deposit deadlines by not sending a deposit, but I still wanted to thank the committees officially. However, I am not withdrawing from Villanova or Penn because I paid and I want my decisions. So I am set on Rutgers, barring an acceptance with an awesome financial package from Villanova or an acceptance at Penn, neither of which is likely.

4-2-07-This past Saturday was Dean's Law Day at Rutgers-Camden, and this day solidified my desire to attend. I was very impressed, to say the least. So I will be withdrawing very shortly from my other acceptances/waitlists (and for some the deadline was 4/1 and I didn't send a deposit, so that is pretty much a sign that I am withdrawing, but still, I will send an email thanking them for the offer etc). As far as Villanova and Penn, I paid them so I want to hear my decisions. Unless Villanova comes through with a great financial package or I get accepted to Penn, either of which is highly, highly unlikely, I will be attending Rutgers-Camden. So I am listing my status as Attending.

3-29-07-My dad also informed me that I am waitlisted at Temple, via snail mail. Kind of disappointed, especially because I received a fee waiver. But it really just hurts my ego more than anything else, because I am really excited about my acceptance to Rutgers-C, and am almost positive that is where I will be attending. Still curious to see my 2 remaining decisions at Villanova and Penn....

3-29-07 I am not sure if I misinterpreted my call from the Dean at Rutgers from the other day..But today my dad told me I got a packet about Dean's Law Day via snail mail. But there was no info about deposit deadline, so I am assuming this packet is different from an acceptance packet (which I as assuming I will be picking up on Saturday). Anyways, I am really excited.

3-26-07-I called Rutgers-C to see when I might be hearing my decision. I was transferred to the dean, who tells me I am in a group of people who will be admitted if I attend the Dean's Law Day this Saturday. She says an email will be coming. She says it has to do with the fact I applied pretty late, so now I am kicking myself for applying late! Oh well, I will definitely be attending the Dean's Law Day, so I am putting my status as accepted. Anyone else in this same situation? I have never heard of something like this before, but I guess it means if you are in the group they want to admit you if you show enough interest to go to the Dean's Law Day...

3-22-07-Holy crap! Out of the blue I am offered 2 scholarships from U Balt, making it full tuition renewable if I maintain a 3.25. Anyone know the curve at this school? I was going to withdraw, but this offer is so tempting, I am confused right now! I am putting it at $31,150 based on the cost of tuition listed on the website for out of state times two (they list tuition by the semester).

3-05-07 Status checker changed at UBalt, I am in!

3-01-07 2/2 today! Phone call from Drexel, I am in! So excited!!

3-01-07 Acceptance via snail mail from Widener. My first acceptance! Yeahh!!!

2-20-07-Received notice via snail mail from Maryland of being placed on the preferred waiting list. Not sure exactly what this means, because my sister told me over the phone...
