I plan on calling them next week if I haven't heard anything from FIU by Wednesday or so. Are you planning to attend FIU?
I'd say FIU is my first choice at this point, given the cheap tuition.
Great school, plus no bar exam if you plan on practicing in WI. My top 3 are FIU, UALR and UND, in that order. #2 and #3 have both deferred me, and I withdrew from #3 as they deferred me until July and I simply cannot wait that long to make a decision. I plan on getting a letter of continued interest out to UALR this week. As for FIU, it is my top choice, but FIU rejected me last year. I reapplied this year with a much-improved PS, I'm hoping that will give me a boost. If I don't get in at FIU or UALR I will probably take a serious look at Barry...I'm established in Orlando and they gave me nice scholarship $$$....
on Hofstra. Out of curiousity, did you write a diversity statement because your scholarship is much larger than others with a higher LSAT and GPA.
Hofstra is a tier two according to this year law school rankings. Though I believe the rankings should not be the sole measure of ones decision. I am looking for a quality school and hopefully in the end I will choose one.
I don't really know anything about FIU. Why do you think I would like it? Any info would be appreciated!!!
Thanks for leaving a message. If you get into both UM and FIU, where do you think you'd go? Is cost a factor for you? We may end up classmates, and good luck on the remainder of your apps. Keep in touch
Yeah i was at the reception last saturday...the guy with the green tie haha. I was so impressed with FIU i pretty much decided on the spot..eventhough i am not really torn bt any other schools. Are u going there as well?
I was waitlisted at miami last saturday after the reception lol. I wanted to go to UM but a lawyer friend of mine made a good point that UM FSU and UF have sooo many quality students with so much competition that you pretty much have a slim chance of graduating near the top ( which is most impt for job placement) where at a new school like FIU you can be a big fish in a small pond. Plus i dont know if i can just go to a school like 2 weeks after being taken off the waitlist...i need to feel some kind of bond or enthusiasm from the school in which case i am extremely impressed with FIU. They are def going places. Hope to see u there but good luck with miami!
Deffered first, the waitlisted. Honeslty, dont know why i applied to UM cause ireally cant afford their tuition especially with no scholarship money. My first choice is FSU but i was deffered there. Im loving FIU though....i just dont want to be in debt after i graduate lol.
Why would you turn down a free ride to Hofstra?
There really is no comparison between FIU and Barry. FIU is a fast growing, competitive T3 school gunning for T2 status within a few years. Barry is just another private T4 school in Florida with a questionable reputation and so-so faculty.
Congrats on your acceptance to Hofstra. I have the same LSAT score... what is your gpa?
Any closer to a decision? I'm down to Barry and FIU. I'm told that FIU will let me know by the end of this month, but I found that a bit dubious considering that their application deadline isn't until 5/1. I figure they will want to have a look at the last minute applicants before rendering a decision on my file (which, I guess, is a de facto "deferred" even though I never got a deferral letter).
Who got off the deferred list? I'd like to talk to that person! I have no idea why they haven't gotten back to me before now. I'm hoping for the best and expecting the worst at this point. Congrats on WVU!
Please ignore that...that was meant for someone else. ;)
Still in the dark here. :(
I don't know if I'd go so far as to say, "Too bad." If you can't handle a few message-board trolls, how on earth will you handle a law professor grilling you on a particular subject? To each his own, I suppose, but I think that the main thing that one needs for success in law school is a thick skin. Some have it, others don't.
Are you any closer to deciding where you will go this fall?

Are you going to the admitted students thing on Saturday?

So...what'll it be? :)
