I'm not going to B.S. you, if fordham was your dream then this really bites. I do think you should try sending another essay or ask about going PT. Continue to show interest.
I would go with washing the dean's car. But seriously, you have great numbers, they shouldn't have waitlisted you :P I will withdraw asap. Send a loci for sure. Good luck!
Good luck! You can make it. I haven't decided where to attend yet. I have a pretty serious boyfriend in NYC at Cardozo and will also have to consider financial aid, but I promise you that if I decide to go to law school elsewhere I will withdraw my application right away.
Fortunately, you are mistaken. You should be able to get Federal loans, as long as you are enrolled at least half time. Fordham PT is only one class short of full time, so you would definitely qualify. However, with your numbers, you probably won't have to risk it. My money is on your ascent from the wait list by Fordham's next batch of acceptances / rejections. I am attempting PT, with numbers less sterling than yours, but unusual softs. Maybe we'll see each other next year?
How is your cycle coming? Did you petition Fordham for PT?
Don't freak out, I'm WL'd at Fordham, too. Lots of time to get in off the list. How is your LOCI? BU might also be a great choice for you. I'm planning a preemptive retake in June. Have you thought about it at all, if you are dead set on Fordham FT?
Nothing now to do but wait, and keep our spirits high. The people of TLS and LSN are thinking of you and wishing you a speedy acceptance. We have two anecdotes of people taken from the waitlist already this year! ;)
LOL at your goat sacrificing! For me, it now comes down to Fordham or Hastings, since I have ties on both coasts. Do you live in NYC, though? If so, go speak to an adcomm, if you haven't done so already! They can and they will take note of your visit, and you won't have to harm any more goats ;)
Sorry about the WL. Fordham happens to be on the top of my list too, and we have the same LSAT score. How about writing a strong LOCI come Jan/Feb or so? Also, still reasonably early to apply to other places, no? Good luck.
