Hey thanks. GW is my first choice, but it really depends on Scholarship $$. That's what I am really focused on now. Best of luck at with Berkeley, you will definately have nicer weather there than wherever I end up!!
on IBS's wall that you think you're only realistic goal is BC, but I disagree and think you're in for some real surprises. Your EC's seem genuinely awesome which will be a big plus. And, for what it's worth, our numbers are very, very close, and I've had a few surprises myself. A tip would be to start thinking about additional things to send in to schools in a letter of continued interest (and maybe even an additional LOR if you find yourself on a waitlist or two) only because you applied a little late and may be waiting a while. I sent an e-mail to a couple schools after having been complete for a while and so far it has helped a lot at one of them. Sorry for the unsolicited advice, I just hate to see people with your qualifications get down about this process. I'm rooting for you, so keep your head up!
Thanks for the compliment. I like your username too- short and sweet.
Howdy. I'm not holding my breath for Berkeley, I applied a little later than I would have liked, only because my apps were ready in September, haha. Anyway, thanks for the good luck! Right now, my top choices are GULC, Northwestern, and Cornell. If I'm lucky enough to get the nod at Michigan, they'd enter the mix as well. Then, it'll come down to money and how I feel about the schools when I visit. Still waiting on six schools, so we shall see. I'm glad to be getting decisions, though, even if they are rejections (just got three in one day, haha). Good luck to you! I'm still rooting for you!
We have similar numbers and both applied relatively late in the cycle. I am keeping an eye out on your results. I'm sure you will have many solid choices!
on william n mary
Sorry I didn't respond to your post sooner. Looks like you already went complete at all the places you asked about, though! Good luck with everything, and don't sweat it too much...waiting is part of the game.
What's up with UF? I applied in November like you and I haven't heard a thing except prospective student updates. My status has been "All Docs Received" for nearly two months while some applicants on LSN heard back within a month of applying!! I should just walk over and pester them in person :)
I'm going to go over to the law school in person and ask them what each status really means. Some schools go straight from "Complete" to "Decision Mailed" without ever going through the "pending" part. If I find out something important (I doubt it) I'll let you know. BTW, thanks for the congrats. Your index score is good, you should get into BU. Watch your phone and voicemail for Laura from admissions.
Well it looks like you attend their rival football school. They could very easily be holding that against you with their admission decision. :)
You have some of the same good choices that I do...what will be your determining factor?
SO is a concern for me. Right now I am just waiting to hear back on Fin Aid/Scholly. UF is a possible compromise option, as it is close enough for SO to visit regularly, but higher ranked than Stetson, where I have a full ride and stipend. I really like GW, BU and BC, but may not be able to afford them, and SO may be unable to move. So I am basically as up in the air as you are. I will be attending UF Admitted Students Day on Friday, so hopefully that gives me some more to work with. Then Stetson scholar retreat next weekend. So many things to consider...
Cornell was my goal, but I am currently on reserve. The letter said that they will determine a waitlist in May, which I may or may not be on. Exciting. I have been with my SO for over 6 years, so also find that it isn't the same thing as making life decisions based on a casual fling or something. My SO is a non-traditional student, so she is still in UG in this area and would likely have to attend a JC if we moved, since she was not in a position to apply directly to any 4-year schools out-of-state. It does make things very complicated. I am actually considering attending Stetson with the scholarship and stipend. If I love the school, I can stay for all 3 years and come out relatively debt-free. If I do well enough, I could try to transfer up to another school after 1L. If I end up hating law school or something, I have the option of leaving at any point without incurring any real debt. I wish you the best with your decisions...your SO sounds like a definite keeper, so I hope it all works out to satisfaction for both of you!
for the nice words about Cal and stuff. It's all good, I kinda applied there on a whim. Duke would be nice but not a big deal...Michigan is the school that can break my heart, haha. Good luck to you with the rest your apps! You definitely have some good news coming.
Thanks for the encouragement. Good luck to you on the rest of your cycle
on GWU! that's impressive!
wait-list crazy! i did better on my second lsat. We should talk about it.
That's amazing for GWU! I would love to get that? May I ask if you did a special scholarship application, or was that normal merit/need-based? Thanks and congrats again!
I can't blame you with a $105,000 offer from them! I'm still hoping to get some $$, still working with the Dean's office on it, so we'll see. Money will decide whether I go to GW or UMd.
I am strongly considering it. I need to see how $$ pans out at other schools based on need and merit, but it will be tough to turn down six figures. Also, I'm glad that I was right about your cycle (see my 1/10 post on your LSN wall)! I told you there would be surprises, and this GW thing is definitely one of them. I'm doing a big tour in March and April, and visiting a bunch of places, so I'll probably decide officially sometime shortly thereafter...before seat deposits come crashing down on me. Good luck with the rest!
Well, I just got the Levy Scholarship from Penn so now I feel like its between Harvard and Penn, maybe Chicago if they give me money...i don't know! I'm still waiting on Columbia and Stanford. But right now, Penn and Harvard. At Penn I could basically go for free, but Harvard is Harvard, you know?
$104,000 from GW...NOT BAD! Wish I got that news in my mailbox :-) Stetson Scholar Retreat was fantastic. I may end up going there after all. Things just seem to be pointing in that direction. Good luck with the rest of your outstanding apps!
The WashU offer came via e-mail almost exactly three months to the day that I received my acceptance via e-mail, haha. Hope this helps, good luck!
Hey, I just got the $104,000 GW scholarship too!!! So happy!!!!
just got my $750! Feels so weird.
Congrats on the GW decision! See you there.
Look at how pretty that "A" looks, no? Congrats!
Hi, which are your first choices? Looking at GW myself.
