Additional info & updates

10/26 - Sent out 9 out of 10 apps. Applying for 2020 fall admission.

11/10 - Submitted last app (Seton Hall Law).

11/25 - Rejection from Vanderbilt Law. I expected that.

11/26 - Accepted into Syracuse Law; 31k per year scholarship. Accepted into Rutgers Newark Law; scholarship amount is coming in the mail.

12/05 - Rejection from Fordham. Not surprised.

12/12 - Accepted into Hofstra; 30k per year (a little under what I expected considering their tuition is 60k per year versus Syracuse which is 51k.)

12/16 - Accepted into Brooklyn Law; 10k per year (very much under what I expected).

12/16 - Received Rutgers Law scholarship info; 14.7k per year (very good offer so RU Law is the frontrunner at this point in time).

12/20 - Accepted into NYLS; 38k per year (must maintain a 3.0 GPA. Happy with this scholarship amount!)

At this point, leaning heavily towards Rutgers Law given its solid rank and very good scholarship offer.

01/08 - Waitlisted at Cardozo. Not entirely surprised. Writing a letter of continued interest in the next two weeks.

01/10 - Rejected at UF.

02/07 - Accepted at Seton Hall! Very happy with the acceptance; waiting to see what my scholarship package looks like.

03/21 - Seton Hall didnt give me any scholarship money, but did give me 15k in financial aid assistance. It is granted on a year by year basis, so it not renewable. Will keep trying to negotiate for some kind of merit scholarship.

03/24 - It is between Rutgers and Seton Hall at this point. Contacted Rutgers to see if I can get more scholarship money. Leaning towards Seton Hall though.

04/15 - Paid my deposit for Seton Hall. Rutgers didn't want to give me more scholarship money. Still on the waitlist for Cardozo, but I'm 90% sure I will be attending Seton Hall Law in the fall.

05/08 - Looks like I will be a Seton Hall Pirate this fall. End of Admissions Cycle!
