Thanks Kess, Good luck to you as well!
Good Luck with your cycle, we have similar #'s and are applying to some of the same places..
Thanks Sdolo, Good luck to you as well. I hope you get in!
Our numbers are similar and we have a few schools in common. Let us know if you get any decisions... I'm desperate for any news!
I will
good luck! :)
thank you:)
NYLS sent me an e-mail about their interview a few days ago. I'm not going to schedule one though. I honestly have no interest in attending. Hofstra also told me they would let me know by 12/15 the latest. Did you apply there ED? Good luck with your cycle, I'll be watching.
No NYLS? The campus is really beautiful.I honestly don't know which school I really want to go to yet. It will be nice to have options though. No I didn't do ED for Hofstra. I applied early so the Director of Admissions said I will get a response 12/15 as well. I just want some decisions already.
that Florida Coastal scholarship is a complete trap. 2.9 GPA you have to maintain as a stipulation, even though the curve is like 2.6 or something. It's crazy.
i don't plan on going there anyway. i just applied because the admissions officer kept on pushing me to apply
and a 2.9 gpa is not bad at all. I know some schools require one to maintain higher gpa's. I plan on doing very well in law school.
iuk, everyone plans on doing well in law school. but the fact of the matter is, grades are curved. 2.6 median curve is very tough. if it was 3.3 curve, it's different. I wish u luck, and i suggest u use the scholarship FLCL offers to negotiate with other law schools.
2.6 is tough? I'm confused
you're confusing undergraduates and law school GPA. You should research. 2.6 median curve means 50th best student out of 100. 2.9 probably means somewhere between 10-20% class rank. either way, you're competing against already accomplished college graduates, some who has graduate degrees, others with significant work experiences, etc. No one goes to law school intending to cruise through or settle for mediocrity. Do some research on GPA median and you'll find out what i'm talking about.
Whenever you get a scholarship offer there are stipulations to it. Law Schools are not going to just throw you money to not maintain a certain gpa. I don't need to do research because every school is different and every curve is different. I don't agree with you when you said Florida Coastal scholarship requirement is a strap because it isn't. All the schools require you to maintain a certain gpa or a certain rank in your class and I just don't think it should be considered a strap. This is my opinion.
and I never compete with anyone, just myself
Then we'll agree to disagree. There are facts backing that at least Florida Coastal scholarship is a trap, I.E. Attrition rate. Not to mention FLCL is For-Profit school and has no undergraduate to back them up financially.
I know most scholarships has a stipulation. however, some scholarship offers has an easy stip, that's what i'm trying to say. Maintaining a 2.9 GPA while the curve is 2.6...that's a harsh stip, hence why it is a trap.
And i hate to tell you this because more of us should have childlike innocence (this isn't meant to be an insult so please don't take it like that), but when you're in law school, you're definitely competing with others. You might do well, but if there are far more students who's work is superior, then your grades will go down. It's not the quality of your work itself, it's how your work ranks against other students. That's why undergraduate GPA or law school GPA is different. Everything is curved in law school.
Thanks Jennifer. Yes, I received the decision via the status checker
good luck! and f the predictor.
LOL thanks I will
I saw that you applied to IU-Indy. I graduated from IU-Bloomington. It is by far one of, if not the most beautiful campuses in the US, with a good law program as well. With that being said, I think you should apply there. Best of luck with the app process!!
thank you, I will look into the school
How long was your status Complete and In Review at NCCU? I have pretty good numbers for there and its actually my top choice and its been that way since 10/31 and I'm getting anxious. My status date changed on 11/15 but my status is still the same
Its been complete and in review since Nov 8
i found out via status checker. i might have pissed them off when i said "please don't hold off my application even though I have registered for the Feb 2012 LSAT". They probably thought I was obnoxious. I just wanted to test out how "strong" rest of my app was and didnt have any desire to attend there. So I guess I was a bit obnoxious lol.
Well, everything happens for a reason so you will go the school you were meant to go to. Good Luck:)
CONGRATS on getting into one of your top schools!! :)
Congrats to you too!! Are you planning on accepting their invite to study law there?
unrealistic dream school= cardozo, fordham, or usc realistically...out of the schools I may be eligible for...I'd probably have to wait and see, depends on the money I can get :) what about you, what's your first choice?
ahhh, I'm sorry! I just realized I posted on your wall instead of someone elses' (in regards to my top schools...) and I noticed you posted your top 3 schools in the info section... (sorry again!) good luck and hope you hear great news from them! :)
It's cool
Congrats on NCCU!
Not sure what the May program is but I just applied for the regular Fall 2012 class, which I guess is August.
Hi there, I see a few comments about the online interview for NYLS...did you do one??
The RU-N scholarship came in the e-mail originally.
Why have you made your decision so soon? Did you not like the remaining schools that you're waiting to hear from?
I decided early because out of all the schools left I only want to go to Cardozo and even if I get into Cardozo the scholarship won't be as good as the tuition I will pay at Rutgers.
Withdraw from Indy. Thank you!
We're applying to a lot of the same schools. Good luck with your cycle!
