Thanks -- you should probably put that on your extracurriculars, too. Unless, of course, you have felonies. Good luck with the admissions -- you've got some great numbers and will probably cost me a spot somewhere nice =p.

Goodluck

I answered your other questions through your mailbox, but wanted to say goodluck with your cycle, and I am sure you will be very happy with your responses given the closeness of our numbers! As for my top school, I dont actually have one so my school selection process will likely take me awhile:-)

Thanks!

Good luck with your cycle. You've got a lot going for you.

Hey, thanks for the congrats on UCI. I'm not sure where I'll end up yet, but that'll definitely be a school to think about. Have you actually sent your app to them yet?

Congrats!

Hi! I got the scholarship offer about a week following my acceptance. I'd bet your numbers/softs will get you a nice package. Congrats on the acceptances so far!

Thursday, November 13 2008 at 07:00 PM

Congrats on your acceptances so far. Maybe we'll see each other at Fordham once you get in.

Sunday, July 06 2008 at 08:00 PM

The scholarship offer came about two weeks after the acceptance. I hope you hear something from them! Your GPA and LSAT are both excellent, so I'm betting you will

Yeah its kind of weird how they do things. It could be because i'm a local boy. Could be because I like burritos and am therfore underrepresented(although i'm half south carolinian). It could be that my prelaw professor/advisor is a Loyola alum and wrote me a very good targetted letter of rec. Plus i'm a pretty good golfer. And lawyers like to golf. You planning on attending anywhere in particular? Anyways, congrats on your acceptances.

Sunday, January 04 2009 at 07:00 PM

Thanx for the love...and yeah, it's a full ride offer. I originally had the $23k as well but then they up'd it. I have some tough decisions to make :)

It's a specific scholarship (http://www.law.miami.edu/finaid/ofa_03_04.php?op=3). I didn't ask or apply for it. I simply received a call from the director of recruiting last week informing me of the good news. Apparently I am 1 of 15 who have or will be receiving it.

Your extracurriculars are AMAZING! You didn't mention any of these at our table tonight! You are far more qualified for law school than I...
