Extra Curricular Information

Second cycle i am going through hopefully with apps in early and and a reccomendation from my employer( i work for a non-profit that works in conjunction with the jail that helps inmates re-enter into society. im basically a case manager.

last time around i got into nova, john marhsall chicago , waitlisted at catholic and hofstra and university of baltimore.

i think when you go through the cycle late they waitlist you cuz they feel bad that you were dumb enough to apply late and waste your money. lol

cant take another year off definetly have to go to a law school this year. cant be to picky with my numbers beggers cant be choosers lol

Additional info & updates

2/18/09 today recieved a big white envelope from FIU thought it was an acceptance and it was a letter asking me to apply.......im confused my app has been complete for weeks now. kinda almost threw up in my mouth. accepted to widener university proabably wont go at this point thouhg. hofstra seems great. also received a fee waiver from mercer so maybe macon is the way to go??? doesnt sound better than long island lol

rejected from university of baltimore kinda wanna be in the dc area but not necesssarily The Wire. lol blessing in disguise maybe??!!

Accepted to hofstra!!! excited but really wating on howard or catholic to make my decision!!

FIU called and asked if would consider attending part time. said yes. told me my app would be submitted back to admissions for review .part time in miami might not be so bad.

good luck with your cycle!!!

Thursday, December 04 2008 at 07:00 PM

Good Luck with your cycle! We have very similar numbers! :)

Sunday, January 25 2009 at 07:00 PM

Hope all goes well with your cycle! We have similar numbers and are applying to 3 of the same schools (Steston, Florida International, and Howard). Have you received anything back from Florida Int. yet? I saw that they just recently cashed my check but I have not received a application confirmation email.

Congrats!!!

Congrats about Hofstra...I am really hoping to get accepted there as well...how did you find out???

Wednesday, September 10 2008 at 08:00 PM

oo thats awesome...we have similar numbers so hopefully i have some of your luck lol...i have noooo idea were i want to go...i like catholic too, i really want to be in d.c. but who knows! i like loyola tooo....good luck!!!

Sunday, January 25 2009 at 07:00 PM

? Did FIU charge you a second app fee for part time enrollment?

Sunday, January 25 2009 at 07:00 PM

well...I went to Howard U. in undergrad and am from MD so I would like to get a change of scenery and go away somewhere...right now Stetson is my first choice...I feel you on the part time at FIU though. Do you know if they allow you to eventually transfer into their full time program? There are some programs that will allow you to do that and still graduate in 3 years.

Sunday, January 25 2009 at 07:00 PM

Cool, good to know...I did talk about it in my personal statement so I hope it works in my favor, thanks for the advise and good luck

Saturday, September 20 2008 at 08:00 PM

Thanks for the congrats. And my top choice is probably American depending on my visit there since I have never been that far north yet. I love your status about The Wire and Baltimore I thought the same thing when choosing schools. Lol.

Saturday, September 06 2008 at 08:00 PM

I am going back and forth between Howard and UM. They were two of my top schools. I want to go to DC for the experience and atmosphere (I want to do public interest law and most of the headquarters for organizations are in DC). But I LOVE the sun. If I get a good amount of scholarship money from Miami, I would go there. Until then it looks like I am going to Howard.

Sunday, September 07 2008 at 08:00 PM

my status changed to decision rendered, and then i received an email that same afternoon with an acceptance package in the mail a few days later. good luck!

Sunday, January 11 2009 at 07:00 PM

Yes, my dates for Howard are accurate. Is Howard your first choice?

hey congradulations on FIU. are you going to go p/t? We may be classmates . Good luck with rest of cycle.

Monday, March 16 2009 at 08:00 PM

congrat's i'm hofstra, i'm so jealous!

Friday, February 20 2009 at 07:00 PM

Yup! I sent off my deposit about a week ago!

Hofstra
Wednesday, January 28 2009 at 07:00 PM

Congrats on your acceptances! IDK about Hof. You are right, the seat deposit is no joke. I got into Pitt which is a better school and higher ranking but its alllllllllllllll the way in PA. I got into Howard but I spoke to some ppl in the law field and they said that they dont even look @ Howard to hire. I have to make my choice soon. I dont know how i feel about 61 grand for COA @ Hofstra.

Congrats!
Saturday, November 29 2008 at 07:00 PM

On Hofstra!! I was waitlisted, but at least it isn't a flat out rejection lol! congrats again! :)

Tuesday, March 31 2009 at 08:00 PM

How late did you apply last cycle?

Tuesday, March 31 2009 at 08:00 PM

Thanks for letting me know and good luck at Hofstra!

Congrats...
Sunday, March 15 2009 at 08:00 PM

...on Hofstra. My status checker went blank on Monday and I am anxiously awaiting (acceptance) a response. I hope to be 1L with you in the fall.

howard
Tuesday, April 21 2009 at 08:00 PM

Would you mind telling me how Howard notified you? I was told a decision was made and will be sent via email and was wondering if they sent rejections like that. Please email me back as I am having isses loging in my account. My actual account is hopeful222 if you wanna know what my status is. Still waiting for most to respond.

Hofstra
Sunday, November 30 2008 at 07:00 PM

Hofstra is my final choice unless Rutgers bites. I was deferred there and then moved to wait list... I'm cool either way. What about you?

Hofstra
Sunday, January 04 2009 at 07:00 PM

Hey sorry it took so long to respond. I would encourage you to go to Hofstra regardless. The school is amazing, the students are great, and the faculty offers real-world expertise. All and all, a top notch school. If you have any questions feel free to add me on facebook and I can answer them John Schneider UNO
