12/10 Got into American today. Big package with a lot of info, very excited.
12/11 God is good. I wake up and the first thing I see is a new email from Fordham, saying that I have been accepted. Needless to say, its been an amazing 24 hours.

1/06 Got a fee waiver from Duke, so decided to apply.

We have nearly identical stats and it looks like we're applying to several of the same schools. Wishing you all the best this cycle!

similar schools
Wednesday, August 13 2008 at 08:00 PM

Hey! we are also applying to similar schools.. good luck this cycle! Do you have a top choice?

congrats!
Sunday, July 06 2008 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on UGA acceptance! We have similar numbers and are both URM. I'm still waiting though...*crosses fingers* Good Luck with the other schools! Btw, do you go to UF? (I do, I just noticed you go to a public school in Florida)

Sunday, July 06 2008 at 08:00 PM

Well I was hoping to hear from Florida State and UGA before Thanksgiving, but I'm starting to lose hope on that one, so I might add a few other schools to the list. Staying in Florida is appealing because it is so cheap! Do you have a #1 choice?

Emory
Sunday, September 07 2008 at 08:00 PM

Hello, did Emory send you an email saying they received your application?

good luck!
Friday, October 24 2008 at 08:00 PM

we have very similar numbers and applying to some of the same schools! i hope everything works out well for you!

u of G
Wednesday, August 13 2008 at 08:00 PM

COngratss.. American just sent me a thick package today letting me know i was in. Im just glad im going to law school next year!! Ideally, what choice is U of G.. top one?

UGA
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on UGA. It looks like the first acceptance for the both of us.

Friday, October 10 2008 at 08:00 PM

Looks like we have some similar indexes at schools. Goodluck with everything. Where did you go to school in FL? What are your top choice schools?

Congrats
Saturday, October 04 2008 at 08:00 PM

On UGA!! I just got in two days ago. Good luck with the rest of your cycle!

Wednesday, October 08 2008 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on your acceptances.

Georgetown...
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

Sighs, looks like we've both been deferred at Georgetown. In fact, right now we have the exact same news, in at UGA, deferred at Georgetown. And the wait continues...yes, we'll have to keep hope alive. LOL.

Top choice
Saturday, October 04 2008 at 08:00 PM

I didn't really have a top choice going into the cycle b/c I was really upset about my lsat score. After doing more research, I'm really looking into going to UGA. I even found a firm I really like in ATL and would like to try to get a summer associate position at and they take numerous students from UGA.

LOL...
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

It's the truth though. Same decisions so far = twins. We'll get through.

Sunday, July 06 2008 at 08:00 PM

Thanks! I'm sure yours will be coming shortly. I'm still jealous of your uga acceptance though ;-)

Friday, October 10 2008 at 08:00 PM

I am a Gator. My top choices/dreams are Northwestern, Cornell and UPenn. If none of those work out, I will most likely end up at UGA over UF.

Congrats
Sunday, September 28 2008 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on UGA!! And I'll be sending you and macjags positive thoughts on Georgetown :)

Anytime
Sunday, September 28 2008 at 08:00 PM

And thanks, I need all the positivity I can get too :) Waiting is the worst...

Congrats!
Monday, December 01 2008 at 07:00 PM

Forham! I am hoping for similar results, good luck with the rest of your cycle.

Congrats on ....
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

Fordham!!! Your acceptances are really flowing in right now. I'm sure they'll keep rolling in.

Sunday, July 06 2008 at 08:00 PM

Now I'm jealous of two schools! lol Congrats on FSU! And I was right about your UF acceptance being on the way. Is Florida up for consideration for you? I bet that in state tuition is looking even more enticing now that you've been accepted.

Good Luck!
Saturday, October 04 2008 at 08:00 PM

on Cornell, I went to decision 12/09!

Cornell...
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

I'm crossing my fingers for you on your decision at Cornell.

FSU...
Sunday, November 30 2008 at 07:00 PM

Did Florida State's status checker go from "application complete" to "decision mailed" or did it have an intermediate status like "file in review"?

Thanks
Sunday, September 28 2008 at 08:00 PM

And a big congrats on all your good news so far!!

congrats on acceptances
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

hey, i'm watching your cycle. best of luck to you, we have pretty much the same numbers and a few schools overlapping. the wait is killing me though now that i've sent mine out. congrats on fordham

Thanks!
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

Best wishes with U of Ill. I'm rooting for you.

Thank you...
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

I'm still on cloud nine and hoping I don't wake up from a dream. But it still seems so unreal. Best wishes to you...I'm rooting for you for UMich and all of your other fav picks.

Thanks
Sunday, July 06 2008 at 08:00 PM

And congrats on the Fordham acceptance and scholarship :-) Still nothing from Georgia for me...I'm really wanting to make a decision soon so hopefully I will hear something.

On WUSTL
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

Congrats to you too as well. I'm sure the good news will keep coming for you as well.

!!!
Wednesday, August 13 2008 at 08:00 PM

You are on fireee... COngrats!

congrats!!
Monday, December 08 2008 at 07:00 PM

congrats on you cycle. where are you in florida?

LMAO...
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

This is hilarious because that's beginning to seem like a real possibility. I see we have 5 schools in common that we've yet to hear from. If we hear at the same time, I'm officially convinced that's the case!!

Congrats...
Saturday, June 14 2008 at 08:00 PM

on all your acceptances...I'm still waiting to hear back from a lot of those schools...

Thanks
Sunday, September 28 2008 at 08:00 PM

And congrats on all of your acceptances as well!!

Decision at Vandy
Saturday, June 14 2008 at 08:00 PM

I went decision today too...I'll cross my fingers for the both of us (though hopefully i'll get my letter today because I'm at Vandy undergrad) I don't think I'd make it thru the weekend wondering...

wustl!!
Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

yay! im hoping they feel the same way about me

Friday, December 05 2008 at 07:00 PM

congrats on your acceptances! you have a good bunch to choose from so far. we applied to some of the same schools, so i hope i'm as lucky. do you have a top choice?

Is it hard to make a decision?
Thursday, January 08 2009 at 07:00 PM

I have been accepted to a lot of the same schools that you have been accepted to. I am having a hard time deciding on which school to choose. Do you have the same problem?

upenn
Friday, October 24 2008 at 08:00 PM

i see you threw in a last minute app to upenn. i did as well! lets see what happens!!

Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

did u hear back about cleo?

Tuesday, September 02 2008 at 08:00 PM

hmm... you got into some awesome member schools. maybe you can contact them and ask them to nominate you?

Thursday, April 09 2009 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on all your acceptances, esp. UNC since that's where I'll be in the Fall (99.5% sure.) I went to UNC for undergrad and it's an awesome school. Matter of fact, I was on Franklin Street Monday night after we won the NCAA title :) Good Luck!

Tuesday, November 18 2008 at 07:00 PM

congrats on mich!!!

Michigan
Sunday, September 28 2008 at 08:00 PM

Sunday, September 28 2008 at 08:00 PM

Thank you! I'm so thankful for how well everything turned out. Wishing you all the best for the future as well.

Tuesday, November 18 2008 at 07:00 PM

no still haven't made a decision lol. hopefully i get into wustl with some money, which would make it easy for me.
