News:

1-16-2007: Submit paycheck to LSAC in $12 intervals

1-25-2007: Submit to Washington University St Louis. Complete at William and Mary

1-26-2007: Complete at Boston College

1-29-2007: Fastest Response ever? William and Mary acceptance in priority envelope sent one day after Complete Email. 14k scholarship to wipe out out-of-state tuition difference.

1-30-2007: Complete at Brooklyn and NYU, Dean Cert just went through. Have to assume I'm complete at a bunch of other schools but won't fill that out until it's confirmed.

2-15-07: Well I'm in at Emory, which is pretty sweet. Harvard sent me an email, apparently LSAC didn't include my resume with a second request of my report....nice.

2-21-07: In at Cardozo - Dean call to cellphone and email confirmation.

2-22-07: Email Acceptance from Brooklyn

3-7-07: Merit Scholarship from Cardozo to cover half-tuition

3-19-07: Over the weekend received scholarship from Brooklyn, 26k per year for tuition plus an undertermined Housing grant. The status checker for Fordham has me listed as waitlisted, which I'm quite surprised about.

3-23-07: Rejection from Duke and waitlist is official from fordham.

Rejections etc.

Afer careful consideration i will be attending Brooklyn Law School this fall. They have upped my scholarship to 32 thousand a year, meaning I have to pay about 1k per semester. The job opportunities post-grad rival the other big new york schools, so I feel it has great potential

Are you retaking the LSAT sometime soon? Our numbers match and we seem to be applying to the same caliber schools. Anyways... good luck!

Thanks!

Good luck to you too! I'm thinking about applying to Fordham too. As a New Yorker, what do people think of that school? Is it worth it for me to travel cross-country for it?

Fordham

I may apply to Fordham just because I feel like I have very little chance of getting in at any of the school I applied to, so the more the better! Thanks for the info!

Good Luck!

FYI - If you combined your majors you'd get Political Scientology.

Good times.

I like your perspective on LSAC fees. So many of us are in the same boat, but that's some funny stuff. Congrats so far and best of luck to you.
