Fee Waivers
Thursday, April 02 2009 at 08:00 PM

I was granted the majority of the fee waivers, "LSAC Fee Waivers," because I qualified for a fee waiver with LSAC. Many of these schools also honor that designation. That's the case with U Dub. With Utah, I attended a presentation at a law school fair last year where they were handing out fee waivers for all in attendance. I've held on to mine, and it turns out it will save me some change. Who's your top choice?

September LSAT
Thursday, April 02 2009 at 08:00 PM

I will for sure. Thanks for the support. When do you figure acceptances will start coming in for us? December-ish?

Applications Done
Thursday, April 02 2009 at 08:00 PM

Sure feels good to have all of those applications in.

Saturday, July 04 2009 at 08:00 PM

Thanks! Best of luck on your cycle.

First Acceptance
Thursday, April 02 2009 at 08:00 PM

Here's to the first acceptance. Good job man.

On Iowa
Thursday, April 02 2009 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on the Iowa acceptance. Under what conditions would they be the school you choose to attend? Btw, I went under review at BYU yesterday. You?

Monday, October 12 2009 at 08:00 PM

It came in the acceptance packet. I've heard you might be able to negotiate for aid at peer schools though. Good luck with your cycle!

Wednesday, October 28 2009 at 08:00 PM

Hey, I actually just got a letter in the mail a little while after the acceptance packet came. I didn't fill out any paperwork or anything, it came in a small envelope maybe a week later?? Hope that helps & congrats on your cycle so far! :)

BYU
Thursday, April 02 2009 at 08:00 PM

Thanks man. I think you should still get some decent money from them though, right? With your numbers you are in the top 25 %.

Monday, November 09 2009 at 07:00 PM

Hi there! The UCD scholarship letter came with the acceptance letter (in the same packet).

UC
Thursday, April 02 2009 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on your acceptances! I wish you the best of luck. As soon as you rule out ASU will you please withdraw? I hoping for some scholarship money to free up somewhere.

Sorry it should be "I'm hoping"

Insurance
Sunday, November 29 2009 at 07:00 PM

Upon an in depth review of the Insurance Policies offered at both IU and Emory, we are really leaning more towards Emory. I will keep you updated on my evaluation of both campuses. What is your top choice as of today?

W&M
Thursday, April 02 2009 at 08:00 PM

Excited for you and your family to have a decision made! I think you'll be really happy with W&M.
