Additional info & updates

I want to attend a school that's NOT in an urban area and preferably ranked fairly high. Anyone who has recommendations feel free to advise. Thank you.

Hoping to one day perhaps to practice international business law in China.

Another dream would be to practice as a lawyer in a rural/suburban community here in the US.

In summary: I want to avoid urban areas.

=========================================

Scholarship = Total amount

I've made up my mind; I am going to Iowa. Go Hawkeyes!

Biggest surprise of the cycle: Wow, I got waitlisted at the University of Kansas.

Yes. I do reply to messages you post here: I reply on your LSN page. :)

Not at all urban

Good luck on Iowa. It's a good school with a small town feel, Great night-life, and a beautiful pedestrian mall in the middle of town.

Not urban...
Monday, July 03 2006 at 08:00 PM

You might look into the University of Illinois or Indiana University (Bloomington) - great schools and not even close to being urban!

thanks for the replies
Saturday, July 01 2006 at 08:00 PM

Thanks to both Peteypop and allison317! Yeah, I am doing more research and will add U of I and IU later.

Interesting Profile and Great Numbers
Wednesday, August 16 2006 at 08:00 PM

Good luck this cycle, you have a very interesting profile. Why not apply to Notre Dame? Good school and not located in a major urban area. Also, William and Mary is another good school in a nice area. Wake Forest is in a town/city, but the area around it is definitely rural. Good luck this cycle!

Thx LatinLegal!

Yeah, ND is a MEGA reach for me. :) But I might consider it.

Hi
Monday, November 13 2006 at 07:00 PM

Well if you want rural they do not apply to Loyola, I work down the street and its total city. WONDERFUL school but definitely not rural.

congrats on iowa
Tuesday, May 23 2006 at 08:00 PM

how did you find out? letter or email?

congrats!
Thursday, January 04 2007 at 07:00 PM

congrats on iowa!! i applied to iowa myself, but i doubt i'll get in, since i'm under the school's 25th percentile on the lsat. what made you wanna attend school in a rural/suburban community?

UIUC

is an awesome school in a great town that's not too big but definitely not too small. The faculty members are really nice, too. Good luck!

Baylor Information

YesICAN, If you want information on Baylor and the Waco area, shoot me an email. I went to Baylor for undergraduate and graduate school. I grew up around the Waco area and can tell you almost anything you would like to know about BU and Waco.

Baylor Information
Sunday, February 04 2007 at 07:00 PM

YesICAN, I think you can probably find a decent, one bedroom apartment in Waco/Baylor area for about $500 per month all bills paid. With regard to on campus dining, if I had to do it all over again, I would only eat on campus for breakfast. That was the only meal on campus that I enjoyed. Lunch and dinner on campus were not real good in my opinion.

KU
Tuesday, August 01 2006 at 08:00 PM

I was waitlisted at KU too, but KU is my top choice. What did your waitlist letter say? Mine was a bit odd. Are you going to deny their waitlist spot? Any info would help me out. Thanks

Ohio State
Monday, December 11 2006 at 07:00 PM

any idea why we are still pending? I applied in November as well.

Iowa
Thursday, June 29 2006 at 08:00 PM

I just got accepted to Iowa also.. I am curious on how you found out about your scholarship?

Oregon
Sunday, January 07 2007 at 07:00 PM

Are you going to withdraw from Oregon?
