1-5 gauges my interest

Scholarships per year

11/30- Into villanova via status checker. LSP had me at a reject and I want to practice in PA so this is a great acceptance, and a quick turnaround! I'm going to law school!!

12/6- Withdrawing from Brooklyn. I have no interest in going there as I'd go to Villanova over Brooklyn no matter what and I don't see myself getting $ at Brooklyn. Plus I've heard a lot of bad things about the school from students and law school publications so I decided to move my app out of the way so the school doesn't waste its time.

12/10- Accepted at DePaul with Dean's Scholarship (15k per year)! I love Chicago so this is a nice acceptance, hopefully I get similar scholarships elsewhere :).

12/15- Accepted at Loyola Chi via large envelope, no money until March. Also got my DePaul t-shirt, pretty nice!

12/16- In at USF via email. 4 for 4 so far =).

12/17- Letter from USF with no money. Looks like I will be withdrawing soon from USF.

12/18- Into Pitt, I've seen the school before and I really like it and I have a lot of family in Pittsburgh. Definitely have to consider it, go Steelers!

12/22- Wasn't in the first round of acceptances for Penn State, looks like this cycle will drag on another month!

12/22- Threw in an application to Missouri. I'm not sure why i didn't apply there in the first place as it is a perfect fit for me. They are solid in the region (I like the midwest) and relatively inexpensive, plus my gf is getting a masters in public affairs (Missouri's public affairs school is top notch). Heres to hoping a late app won't spell doom for me, I think I'd seriously consider this school.

1/8- In at Missouri with in state tuition! quick turnaround and a cheap school, very excited

1/15- First rejection: Maryland! That's okay, wasn't interested in moving to Baltimore.

1/20- First waitlist: Yeshiva! Probably will withdraw myself from the waitlist

1/26- Waitlisted at American, will stay on but not too interested in the school, especially at full price. Got into St. John's with 20k and only got a 5k scholarship at Loyola-Chi.

2/1- In at Oregon with 4k a year with no strings attached. I've been to Eugene once and really liked it! Also got 8k a year at Missouri in state!

2/9- In at Loyola Law School, no word on money yet

2/15- Second review on Iowa, not very interested in the school anymore but its better than a rejection right? Having trouble choosing between my 3 remaining schools.

2/18- This could turn out to be a difficult choice. Villanova has been my first choice since I started looking at law schools 3 years ago, but the cost is a little scary and there are some other (personal/family) factors. I really hope to be attending Villanova but I might not be able to =(. Probably will withdraw from all pending schools next week.

2/25- Finally into Penn State after 3 months in review. When I applied I planned on attending if I got in, but a lack of correspondence from the admissions office and some good placement numbers recently from Villanova has changed my mind. Scholarship info from PSU to be sent out next week so a big scholly could make a difference.

3/14- Change of heart? New scholly money? Down to 2, glad I didn't send seat deposit at Nova yet. Loyola chi vs. nova

4/1- Can't make up my mind, gonna visit the 3 schools
