Thanks midwesthopeful! Good luck to you too. If you wind up in metro D, I'd be happy to offer advice on housing, local attractions, etc. Detroit is a pretty cool town. Lots of bad press, but it's not so bad. :)
Hi Law school mom, I'm curious - what draws you to Detroit, in particular? Also, how would you describe the atmosphere of Miami? All I have to really go off of is movies!
Actually, a better quesiton is probably what drew you from Madison Heights down to Miami! And then to leave the warmth for winters!
I grew up in metro-Detroit. Scholarship $$ took me to Miami. Now I'm back in Michigan and am basically stuck here due to hubby's job and the fact that we couldn't sell our house if we tried. *sigh* Such is life.
Miami is way cool. Great night life. Campus is beautiful. Very safe campus, great wellness center, decent on-campus food. Study under the palm trees- hey, what more could you want?!?! I actually got married right there on campus at the Episcopal Church in '98. Ahh.. seems so long ago.
Hey there, I think you have a strong chance at both Wayne St and UDM. A 151 is a lot stronger of an LSAT score than what I have even though it's only three points. You also have a lot of other positives going for you as well, especially the fact you're from Michigan. I wouldn't worry too much!
Waitlisted is very different from deferred. Wayne State has not yet made a decision on your application. This means that you were deferred.
If they said they are going to review your application again, it's not waitlisted. I have this at both Creighton and North Dakota. However, waitlist is the only choice that really fits on here.
I am "deferred" at both North Dakota and Creighton. I wonder what the chances of getting accepted are?? Waitlist was the only choice on here that fit for our profile.
oops, double post...sorry haha
I didn't know what the difference was between waitlisted and deferred at first. Now I do, so I'm feeling a little more hopeful. Sent a LOCI - not sure if those make a difference or not.
Congrats on UDM!
Interesting background! Were applying to the same schools. I take it your hoping to attend Wayne State as your first choice?
I see that we have applied to the same schools. I wish you luck with this process, you have good numbers to get into both schools.
