01/28 First rejection today- not a good way to start the cycle but i guess my reach reach is an okay hit to take. I will not be going to the windy city, after intense inquiry into my various LSAT scores (due to previous illness) i was still rejected from Loyola Chicago today. sighh..... lets hope better things are to come!

2/3 Got into Widner today! Via email that looked totally unsuspicious :) Came back from court at my internship saw this emailed and cried REAL tears of relief. I am going to LAW SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the scholarship was just icing on the cake 14 k yearly with 3.0 GPA. On to more decisions now can't wait!!!!

2/22 Got waitlisted at Villanova via email. It was a really nice email and offered me a survery to secure a spot on the waitlist. I am okay with this Nova is so close to home, and a tier 1 lots of pluses, and im holding out hope for other things :)
*sidenote waitlisting for those of you who dont know, does not help smoth out the emotional rollercoaster that is law school application. ugh.

2/23 Waitlisted at Temple today. Its coming one after another, maybe i should stop praying to the gods of law school admission? a waitlist is by FAR better than a rejection, i know that, but its not an admission, and although i still have a chance, i had a change yesterday too :( taking this one kinda rough. sigh...

3/1 rejected from pit via snail mail letter small white enevlope

3/2 rejected from penn state via email.

3/4 AND IN AT DREXEL! The excitement is a little burdened by the financial strain this whole thing is about to put on me but irregardless I GOT INTO DREXEL LAW!!!!!!!!!!!!

3/10 Waitlisted at Brooklyn law. Suprised by that i was sure it be a negative- really nice letter that came too. Impressed.

4/22 Seat deposit deadline has come and gone and i am going to Drexel :) Happy to announce this! Struggled for a while with widner and the amount of $$$ they gave me, but ultimately i know i am going to get alot more out of my education at Drexel.

Hope everyone else's cycle turned out for them the way mine did for me :) Best of luck in the future! And thank you for all the mental support while i was waiting to hear :)

I'm sorry to hear that they rejected you too. It's surprising, but I guess they're trying to climb ranks. Good luck on the rest of your cycle.

It was only like thirty days or so. Not too bad.

Good luck to you

Thanks for your kind words. I think the legal profession needs more diverse viewpoints. I imagine your time in the public defender's office gave you insight into the diversity of players in our legal system. Widener simply sent me an email one day with no warning. Status checker didn't change till three days later. The waiting is rough;)

Yeah, it was really quick. They actually called me but I didn't answer, so they left a voice mail and then I got a follow up email letting me know about scholarships and more details. Good luck!!!

For Penn State, I received an email letting me know I was accepted, and received a package about 2 weeks later w/ the scholarship information. Good luck to you I hope your cycle goes great!

I saw your question about the Temple status checker, and I thought I might be able to help. My status checker never changed to under review. It just said complete the entire time. The complete date did update, then a couple days later (and on a Sunday) it said admitted. Hope this helps, and good luck!

Thanks!

Yea,I still haven't heard back from some of my safeties, so I wouldn't worry too much. I'm still waiting to hear back from some reaches, but out of my acceptances I like W & L and Wake Forest. Ohio State is in the running, but I'm still waiting on scholarship info. I might actually withdraw from Temple soon because I have some better offers money-wise. I hope you hear back soon! It's been pretty slow for me lately too.

Thanks! The Temple status checker switched from Complete 1/18 to Complete 2/10, to Admitted 2/14. They sent me an email on 2/15 and I checked the status checker afterwards but I don't recall being "Under Review". Best of luck!

Don't know yet

I'm still weighing options and waiting on acceptances. Congrats on the waitlists. Keep the faith!

Thursday, November 26 2009 at 07:00 PM

GOOD LUCK!!!! Im thinking about Drexel myself they have a really good co-op program.

Waitlists!
Saturday, January 09 2010 at 07:00 PM

Good luck with your waitlists! I have plenty of my own, but I'm sure with all your enthusiasm about Temple and Villanova, as well as ties to the area, you can write a great LOCI.
