Additional info & updates

1st generation college student

I'm casting a wide net across all tiers. It's going to be fun to look back and see where all I'm accepted/rejected/waitlisted.

2/15/11
Accepted to Washburn via phone call. My first decision was an acceptance, off to a good start.

02/17/11
Denied at Washington & Lee. No surprise but I was maintaining a small flake of hope for a while.

02/18/11
Denied at Lewis & Clark via e-mail, disappointing because I thought I had a shot at this one.

02/22/11
I got accepted to St. Thomas - Minneapolis via the status checker. That makes me 2-2 so far.

Cooley acceptance in the mail (big envelope), they're offering me a 75% tuition scholarship that I'll keep if I stay in good academic standing and avoid disciplinary action.

Also received a big envelope from Washburn with a checklist, a residency form and a viewbook about how cool Kansas is.

2/23/11
Accepted to Akron via phone call.

Got my University of St. Thomas packet in the mail today. They're offering the President's Scholarship which covers FULL TUITION! All I would have to do is maintain a 2.0 and full time status.

2/24/11
E-mail from Akron offering a renewable $17,000 scholarship and $12,000 stipend.

2/25/11
Waitlisted at DePaul via status checker.

3/1/11
I am withdrawing from Pacific McGeorge after hanging up 15 minutes into a "brief" phone survey about my interest in the school. The guy pretended he it was a basic law school interest survey and then started asking a bunch of questions about my interest McGeorge after he asked me to rank my top 5 schools. Underhanded bastards called from a Montana area code.

3/2/11
Rejected @ Hawaii via e-mail.

3/4/11
Rejected @ Illinois via e-mail.
Received an apology phone call from Pacific's Dean of Admissions, he seemed like a cool guy.

Waitlisted @ Hofsra via status checker

3/7/11
Waitlisted @ Mercer via status checker. It's not one of my top choices but I have to admit that I am disappointed, I thought this one was a sure thing. Then again they have very similar numbers to Hofstra which also waitlisted me...

Rejected @ American via e-mail.

It starting to look more and more like it's going to come down to Howard if they give me a decision before April.

3/12/11
Rejected @ Cincinatti via letter.

3/15/11
Rejected @ William & Mary via e-mail.

3/16/11
Rejected @ UNLV via e-mail. This is discouraging, I haven't received any good news in a while.

3/23/11
Waitlisted @ Maryland via hard mail. This is great news, Maryland is top 50 and I was pretty sure I was going to be rejected.

3/26/11
Rejected @ Catholic through snail mail. What a waste of paper; they only used the status checker to let me know that an ambiguous decision letter was coming through the mail.

Accepted @ Phoenix via status checker.

3/20/11
Akron's and St. Thomas' seat deposit deadlines are April 1, but I have decided I am going to take a gamble and put most of my chips in on Howard's pending decision.

3/31/11
Rejected @ Seton Hall via status checker. Drexel sent an e-mail today saying they are going to take even longer to decide on me.

4/08/11
Waitlisted @ Drexel Law via Status Checker.

4/15/11
Rejected @ Twin Cities via e-mail.

4/18/11
Rejected @ Pitt via status checker.

4/22/11
Rejected @ Indianapolis via postal mail. Got rejected by Pitt again, this time via letter.

I wish Howard would hurry up and decide, waiting for them is especially stressful because they do not have a status checker.

5/27/11
Rejected @ Howard via e-mail today. It's a good thing I had already decided not to go to law school or this would have seriously messed up my plans.

As far as hbcu law schools, Howard was the only one that looked attractive to me. I'm nervous about getting in, I have not seen much data indicating how they'd react to my split.
