Received first letter - rejection at Minnesota. Wasn't expecting admission.

2/24/06
Received first acceptance - Toledo. Third Tier, but they're offering a full tuition scholarship. And my fiancee got a full ride. So, it's not a bad fall-back option.

2/25/06
Moving on up to the Tier Two Schools. Accepted at University of Cincinnati. Scholarship info to come.

3/1/06
I was expecting admission to all the Tier 3 schools...but got deferred at Akron today. Not sure what happend there. Not too concerned though. Akron is a hellhole.

3/4/06
Rejected at GWU. Not a surprise by any means. Still would have been nice. Though, it's not like I could have afforded it anyway.

3/23/06
Pretty bummed out...heard back from my top choice...OSU...they are out of spots in this year's class. Definately should have applied in October. Might as well stay on their waitlist.

3/25/06
In at Capital. Didn't expect any different really. Offered a $12,000 annual scholarship. Planning on withdrawing this week.

4/1
Well the new rankings are out....Toledo has moved into the Top 100 and Cincinnati moved up five or so to be in a tie for 53. Makes the decision a little harder.

4/4
Well my fiancee got in at Iowa. Now I have to wait to hear back since I submitted my application much later than her. Our paradigm has shifted drastically in the course of a day.

4/6/06
Call from Akron telling me that I'd been accepted. Big whoop. At least I can say I wasn't rejected at Akron.

4/7/06
Got the hold letter that everyone has been getting at Case. Gonna keep my name in that hat. This has become a waiting game.

4/8/06
Still waiting...

4/10/06
No news this weekend. Withdrawing from Capital today.

4/13/06
Wow....email from Iowa....the waiting pays off. I'm in. Looks like this is where I'm going to be in the fall. I feel as though a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders.

4/17/06
Withdrawing from Akron, Case, and Drake today. Will be attending Iowa this fall.

4/21/06
Visited Iowa today. Great campus. Great building. The housing market sucks in Iowa City but I did get an apartment lined up for the fall.

4/22/06
Well...got accepted at Drake today a few days after withdrawing. Don't know how that works really. Also, got Akron materials....2 weeks after being accepted and days after withdrawing. Strange.

4/28/06
Finally heard back from Wisconsin....hearing back from the first school I applied to last.....guess that means I was close. Oh well. Wasn't going to go there anyways. Nice to have tied up those last remaining strings out there.

IOWA Class of 2009

Hi, I have also decided to attend IOWA this fall. Do you have any info on where we can find housing info? Also, what do you know about the school? ;-) Well I hope to hear back from you!!!

Congratulations on Iowa, man. You must have had a pretty stellar application. Isn\\\'t it funny that - were you black - people would be screaming \\\"Affirmative Action\\\" at the top of their lungs? Just curious... what did you submit? Lengthy PS? Diversity statement? Addendum on LSAT score? Good luck next fall.
