Additional info & updates

Received a call from the University of Missouri to let me know I had been accepted. It was a nice personal touch and the decision came very quickly! My father-in-law graduated from Mizzou and they have a great dispute resolution program.

Received a rejection email from Depaul. A bit worrisome but it was pretty far down my list. On to the next!

Rejection letter from the University of Kentucky. Note for future applicants - I did some research and it appears Kentucky only emails those who were accepted, if the status checker says your letter was snail mailed it means rejection or waitlist.

Waitlisted at Denver via email.

Accepted at Memphis via large packet. Scholarship information to come by April 1. Instate tuition and high bar passage rate are great incentives.

Letter from Missouri offering a $9k per year scholarship. Renews yearly if I stay in the top 50% of my class. $27k is nice! Very excited.

Rejected at Colorado via letter. I knew it was a long shot, but I had to give it a try. Visited Mizzou this weekend. The campus was awesome, even if it was under 2 foot of snow.

Wait list for Wake Forest via email.

Rejected at UF via letter in the mail.

Waitlisted at UT via status checker, letter in the mail. Going to Columbia again next week, excited to see the campus again.

Thanks! They notified me that my application was complete via email. "Thank you! We have received your application and CAS information. Your file is now complete." They notified me that my application was complete on the 11th and notified me of acceptance on the 21st. Hope this helps. -MER

What time did Mizzou call at? Did they tell you any other information during the call?

Sunday, October 24 2010 at 08:00 PM

Mizzou called around lunch time. They called my cellphone while I was at work. The only information they gave me was that scholarship information would be sent out in February.

Congrats on Miss. Im a little worried because my numbers are similar to yours and I applied to depaul as well. It says they have rendered a decision but its gonna take a couple of days. Gatorbull84

I'm not a UTK alum (big fan), but I definitely feel your pain. Who are you leaning towards at the moment? I got the same offer as you at Mizzou and its very attractive, especially when you consider how easy it is to obtain residency after first year. I've pretty much narrowed down my selection to UTK (if accepted), Wake (if accepted), Kentucky, Mizzou, and Loyola. The only school I might choose over Tennessee is Wake and that's extremely unlikely. Best of luck! GBO

Hey did your status date update today at UTK?

UTK
Tuesday, September 14 2010 at 08:00 PM

I'm actually feeling pretty optimistic about this decision. Everyone on TLS that got the status update today has numbers that are pretty close for Tennessee and most are in-state. I have a hunch that we're either either some of the final acceptances or the first waitlists.

Tuesday, September 14 2010 at 08:00 PM

I'm from Nashville BTW. And I don't mean to get your hopes up. I'm just being optimistic. Good luck!

What update were you discussing Eric? Mine has remained the same..."In Review"

Sunday, October 24 2010 at 08:00 PM

Atlantis, it still says in review, but our date of review changed to 2/21/11

Sorry to hear that, man. I'm still at 2/21, but I'm sure the waitlist is right around the corner. Unfortunately, I probably won't be able to wait for the waitlist because the scholarship acceptance deadline for UK is 4/15.
