Thanks for the well wishes! Wishing you all the best for an amazing cycle :)

Hi again! I am so jealous of your Northwestern fee waiver right now :) Congrats! I would love to apply but the application fee is a little high. Did you receive the waiver via email or standard mail (so I can know whether to hold out hope)? Thanks!

Thanks so much for the info! I'll keep my fingers crossed for more great FWs this month.

hey! thanks for the well wishes. i looked at your numbers, i am sure that you are going to do great! yes the probability calculator brought a huge smile to my face too. i wish you the best this cycle!

haha of course i meant luck* thats what i get for looking at LSN in a teensy window while at work :)

Thank you for your advice! I did take the Kaplan course...I don't know what's happening with reading comp (after all I was an English Major :/). But I'm just gonna pray about it and do my best. Best of luck to you! Keep me updated!

Hey! We're applying to a couple of the same schools.. are you doing Boston College EA or regular? and GW.. ED or regular? Like you Im just waiting.. but its killing me. Good Luck!

Thank you for the luck! We also have a similar lsat score. I'm hoping one of the t-14s will take a chance on me! Good luck to you too! Get those apps in!

Thanks! Waiting is the hardest part but it is definitely very exciting!

As long as the rest of your app is strong there's a chance. We have to keep some kind of hope alive! I got waitlisted at UVA when I was accepting a straigt rejection. I'd really like to go to Cornell.

...Except for now I don't feel that great because I didn't realize Cornell needed our Dean's Certification letter before our application would be considered complete...Now I have to hope that my school will be able to send it out quickly. Seeing as you've been "out of undergrad for 1-2 years" too--Have you sent your Dean's Cert to your schools yet? And if so, was it an easy process? Thanks in advance :)

I wish we could fast forward to spring now too because where we ultimately decide to go to school is such a big, life-altering decision...And I think I may have just made myself a little bit more anxious by typing those words, haha. I really just want to know the future now. Is that so much to ask? :)

I better get on it since I had no idea about the importance of this one little form...And you're right, there is so much to keep up with. Do you know if BU needs one too? Our public schools don't require DC's, right?

Thanks so much for checking the websites AND sharing the info with me! That was so nice of you and I really appreciate it.

I'm nervous, but excited, to see how this cycle plays out! Do you have any favorites in your list of schools?

Thank you...and CONGRATS YOURSELF on UGA!!!! Today was a big day, eh?!

I am right there with you. I'm anxious for the cycle to be over so we can get to the next challenge--choosing where to go! And big congrats on UGA!!! Aww, but don't let it get you too worked up. We just have to hang in there. You already got your first great acceptance, I'm sure it's only going to be up from here :)

I have good news that I wanted to share with you first after reading your message to me about "big things" before I posted it on my wall--I just received a full tuition scholarship from Michigan State--so excited!!! I did not see that coming at all! You are a psychic :)

thanks!! are numbers are similar! i just send my first application today im so nervous! but hopefully it's a great cycle for both of us!!!

Hello there my fellow Spelman Sister. Thank you for the words of advice on my profile. Congratulations on your acceptance to UGA and good luck on the rest of your cycle!

Thank you!! Which is your first choice?

ahah thanks thats how i feell..yippee we are both going to law school next year!

ahah thanks thats how i feell..yippee we are both going to law school next year!

We have somewhat similar numbers...what's your number 1 pick -- I'm hoping/praying I get into NU.

Congrats as well in being accepted. I see that we have applied to many of the same schools. I hope the acceptances come rolling in for the both of us. What is the likely hood of you going to UGA ?

Did your NU status check actually change to say "Under review"? Are you EA there?

You so did and I was the one that said we should stay calm--well, that was easier said than done!

Reading your post made me laugh and gave me some optimism. Its good to know that they just didn't want us at all. I hope letters of acceptances come to both of us in the future, so we can continue to be twins with the news we receive during our cycle.

Also, how will you go about showing continued interest?

I hit the wrong key. I meant Columbia, not Cornell.

good luck at Georgetown, how do you plan on showing continued interest??

Thanks, I ended up heading back up to the admissions office to check and they said any money would have been included. With my numbers I guess I was not expecting much anyhow. I am still ecstatic though!

I think I just might take your advice :)

And good luck on the rest of your cycle too! I'll be rooting for you with Gtown!

on UG!

Wow, not even a waitlist, just a deferral? That's excellent! Congratulations :) I'll cross my fingers that everything works out for you.

for the well wishes and I wish you the same good luck. It has just been a crazy past week and I hope it continues.

Thanks so much!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! Congrats on Georgia too! It's a great school! Looks like we are applying to a lot of the same schools...so I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!! We can do it!

Did you have an interview with a Georgetown Alum?

on Maryland.

Congrats on the acceptance to U of MD Spelman Sister. (I'm laughing at your comment "this'll hold me over til the new year and allow me to stop compulsively checking my status checkers.") I'm compulsively checking lsac.org to see if my lsat scores are up. (It's been longer than 3 weeks so I'm, reasonably, antsy.) Good luck with the rest of your cycle.

for the well wishes. Ditto to you. Glad you've got some acceptances under your belt. Enjoy the holidays.

Congratulations on UMD! Fantastic news :)

Hey, so I got my LSAT score back. Upset that I missed my 160 goal by all of 1 correct answer. My GPA isn't the highest so I'm feeling like my chances have just dropped by a bunch. I guess only time will tell though.

We have similar numbers and both went to HBCU's

Where did you go? Our numbers are almost identical. I got a 158 on the LSAT and a 3.66 GPA.

Thanks! I actually applied regular decision but I found out early because I went to GW and talked to the dean and she let me know on the spot!

is stifling! Thankfully, I'm on a nice little break in NYC. Hopefully, that will take my mind off of the app proces.

Thanks so much! Best of Luck to you!!!

Congrats on your current acceptances :) I'm a 1L at Villanova, so if you end up considering Nova let me know if you have any questions

Thank you so much!! We haven't done too bad, have we!! I wish you all the luck in the world for the rest!

Congrats on Boston College!!!

on all your acceptances. My status just changed at Illinois as well, so I'm hoping for the same result as yours.

You are having an amazing cycle. Congratulations!!!!

thats all I can say. Congrats. I know you must still be floating on cloud nine right now. I can only wish for the same results.

OMG!!! The biggest congratulations to you on U of M and all your additional acceptances! But U of M, I am just so happy for you right now, you have no idea :)Yay!! Even though you'ev got the rest of what I'm sure will be a great cycle--Do you think that's where you may end up going?

CONGRATS!!! What a cycle!! Im sure you are in seventh heaven! Cheers to you

lol. So now I can breathe easy for the moment because I found out yesterday I was accepted to Emory. The Dean of Admissions called me to congratulate me. The first one is always great! lol.

Congrats on UMich!!! Your cycle is going very well. Did your status change before you received the package?

thanks! i'll try my best! congrats on your success so far!

omg. you are my hero. seriously. congrats!!

You are kicking butt this cycle!!! I hope some of that rubs off on me. Have you heard about $$$ from the schools you've been accepted to.

congrats on Illinois!!

Yo, your cycle is blowing up BIG TIME!!! Major congratulations :)

Thanks for your response. Wouldn't you know it? I got an acceptance from UMich today. Congrats on the full scholarship from UIUC, I recieved it as well. Looks like we will be making a lot of the same decisions. I'd be interested in your decision making process.

CONGRATULATIONS! Definitely proud of you!

Your cycle is going so incredibly well. Now it's time to think about withdrawing from schools :) Isn't that an awesome problem to have?!

on WUSTL, seems we both got good news today.

Wow, I wonder if schools are reviewing our applications one after another.

congrats. look like you are having a great cycle. i hope to get some of the same great news from emory.

SO jealous of your acceptances right about now... CONGRATS

Full scholly at UIUC and Villanova AND a Michigan acceptance? GEEZ GIRL!!! You're doing amazingly well. Congrats!!

I am so happy for you! Congrats on getting into Emory and Washington and your full scholarships from Illinois and Villanova! Your final decision may be tough, like you said, but what an amazing and blessed decision to have to make :)

thanks! im still in shock that i got into emory!! im a die hard new yorker but emory has me feeling like i want to give the south a chance :)

Major congrats on a beautiful cycle so far!

Congrats on your acceptances!

so where are you thinking of going now that you heard back from a bunch of schools? do you have a top choice?

Congrats on all your acceptances. I'm still hoping to get into somewhere in the T100 range!

thanks! still have 16 to go...

They took forever to change my status to complete as well. I ended up having to call them to make sure everything was OK. Congrats on all your acceptances, you are having a great cycle. I hope the acceptances keep rolling in for you!

I still can't believe that I have been accepted into a T-14, Ivy League law school. I am so happy! Cornell is definitely my first choice if I can determine how to finance their tuition properly. What is your first choice? And we must be dc form twins, haha. I didn't go complete until 1/21 because I had to send the form to my undergrad twice!

Yay!!! Congrats on Northwestern! :)

congrats on ALL of your acceptances. so what's your top choice now?

Thank you for the words of encouragement. On the plus side I got into Wash U today. The cycle is going pretty well (though not as well as yours! lol) Congratulations on all of your acceptances!

Yay yay yay! That's all I can say to you right now. Oh, and Congratulations!!

Amazing cycle. Why didn't you apply to Harvard?

on northwestern!!! where are you leaning? congrats to you!

Kongratulations on your acceptances. We basically have the same numbers and we have applied to some of the same schools.

heya, thx for the well wishes on CLEO. i'm waiting to hear back from ms. williams on the location. i'm in philly right now so pittsburgh would be great, and yes planning on sharing info w/ all schools i've applied to. did you do that when you found out? best -r

when did you find out about your money from emory?

Wow, that's some legit money from Wake and Emory! Congratulations! Any idea where you're leaning at this point? Plans to attend Michigan's ASW?

I'll be there in April as well! We'll have to make sure to meet up and say hello :)

Thank you so much for the congrats! I congratulate you as well! Your options are terrific. I can't wait to see where you end up! Regardless, it looks to be a top school! Congratulations again and best of luck with everything! Here we go....!

got placed in southern illinois! was hoping for pittsburgh.

I'm overwhelmed by the NYU acceptance. It's between NYU and Berkeley now. I'm a finalist for the AnBryce at NYU and if I'm lucky enough to get it, it will definitely be NYU! I'd love to meet your friend if we both end up at NYU. Where are you thinking you'll end up. Will you turn down the Wake Forest $$ for Northwestern?

What is your top choice so far?

where are you thinking you are gonna go?

Thanks so much! You are the sweetest. I hope you hear back soon about schollies at UMich. I'm thinking happy thoughts for you!

for the words of encouragement. I'm just thoroughly annoyed by this whole admissions process and have been feeling kind of down lately with the lack of hearing about $$, school, and life in general. I'm just trying to use this trip as an opportunity to get my mind off the whole thing. Nevertheless, what about you? Are you settled on UMich?

see u in pittsburgh! cant wait :)

What's the word on where you think you'll end up?

I'm going between Michigan, NYU, and Harvard right now. I'll be going to all three ASWs to feel things out and I'm sure I'll be able to make a decision pretty soon after that.

i think you should free up those spots at usc and wustl :) congrats on the great cycle!

Hey Spelman Sis! Just wanted to let you know that I got into Vandy today!

It's my FIRST choice, lol. And today/tomorrow my cycle is OFFICIALLY over. (Duke finally went to decision today). Anywho, I really want to be at Vandy and hoping that I can get some scholly money. I'm contacting them in a minute to ask. WUSTL's deposit is due Wednesday so I have to make a decision quickly.

What terrible choices! =) Just kidding...where are you leaning? You are in such an awesome position...I'd love to hear what you choose!

Girl, YES. I sent that withdrawal email and died a little inside, lol. But I'm sure I'll love Vandy and won't regret my decision in the end. And I'm DEFINITELY looking forward to graduation. I have the major countdown going. Soooo are you all set on Cornell?

Thanks, you too! It's so funny to look back at how anxious and nervous we all were...and now look at us :) Congratulations on U of M! I went to MSU for undergrad but looked at U of M too and it is such a nice campus. And I actually enjoyed the cold weather for the most part (don't know if you're used to northern winters yet or not ;) ) It's just a little hard to officially say goodbye to FSU (where my fiance attends) and UA (full scholarship)...but I am so excited about Cornell! Wishing you all the best this fall!

Michigan is fantastic! Congratulations on making the final decision :)

for the congrats. After this crazy cycle, we both ended up at the same place, which is cool. I had picked the option of being considered for both the summer or fall, and they placed me in the summer.
