Additional info & updates

11/26- laura called today from boston university to tell me i got in!!!! soooo excited hope to hear more calls soon

11/26- florida sent me a letter saying they cannot classify me as a resident for tuition....so my app isn't even being processed. It looks like its going to be too much trouble to even bother with and they are my last choice so looks like bye bye UF

12/02- So UF accepted me today , im assuming however not as a resident in terms of tuition. I guess that changed their minds about not processing my application.

12/05- Got my rejection letter today from Georgetown. Did not even think i had more than a slight chance anyways so not really a moral killer

12/24- got my official scholarship letter from UGA in the mail,16,850 residency equivalency scholarship. Not to bad but i was hoping for more.

12/24- Got my final grades back from fall, got my first straight A's to boost my gpa up to a 3.78, sent updated transcripts to law schools. Hope it helps

1/22- Vanderbilt sent my decision via online status checker. I'm 98% sure I got wait listed, but at least im hearing from another school.

1/24- Got my rejection letter from Vany. I thought I would at least get waitlisted but oh well.

2/2- Got waitlisted at George Washington today.... not too happy, my numbers were competitive but I think cutting down my ps to 500 words from over 1000 hurt my application with them. Still holding out for Emory.

2/7- In Chicago- Kent via email

2/12- $75,000 offer from Chicago-Kent

2/23- Got into Emory today soooooooooooo happy

3/23- Boston scholarship for 10k for three years...wow. now i have no idea where I'm going. Hope Emory can at least match it.

3/25- waitlisted at W&M, which is a surprise somewhat but they took too long and Ive gotten better offers so its does not really even matter.

4/11- cycle done. Going to Emory in the fall

Hi back
Monday, November 17 2008 at 07:00 PM

I've got a good feeling that you'll be accepted at W&M :)

Congrats
Monday, October 13 2008 at 08:00 PM

On BU! We have similar numbers - good luck on your cycle!

question
Thursday, September 11 2008 at 08:00 PM

did you write the opt. statement for BU??? I have very similar numbers, but can't think of anything to write!

UF Admission
Wednesday, October 29 2008 at 08:00 PM

Congrats! How exactly did they notify you? Was it online or through mail?

Saturday, June 28 2008 at 08:00 PM

it was snail mail

Congrats on UF!
Monday, June 11 2007 at 08:00 PM

You're the first person who they've admitted on here! Did your online status show that an admissions mailing went out to you?

Wednesday, October 29 2008 at 08:00 PM

Ok, thanks for letting me know! Good luck with the rest of your cycle! :)

Soft factors?
Wednesday, November 12 2008 at 07:00 PM

Congrats on your acceptances! I'm a white male from CT... decent extra-currics and all... but nothing spectacular. Did you have anything to help you out? I really want to get into BU, and I have nearly identical numbers, so I was just wondering. Thanks! And good luck!

Congrats!
Sunday, October 26 2008 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on your acceptances so far! Best of luck in the rest of your cycle!

re: UNC
Tuesday, November 18 2008 at 07:00 PM

Congrats on your cycle as well, especially BU...I have my fingers crossed! I have not officially gone complete at UNC. The last email was Nov 14 and said they'd email me in the next few weeks if anything was missing. I did send in my residency form late. I'm thinking of calling them but since they seem to send their first acceptances out late anyway I imagine it's nothing to worry about. Good luck!

Good luck
Friday, October 24 2008 at 08:00 PM

Good Luck to you too, and congrats so far! Do you have a number one? P.S. Go Gators..Miami here we come :)

Monday, September 22 2008 at 08:00 PM

i have a good feeling about your cycle. good luck! ridiculous chills when we get back to school.

Friday, October 24 2008 at 08:00 PM

Yeah hopefully we'll know soon!

Nope! Nothing yet. Good luck with yours though!

I am so sorry...I didn't realize your's said rejected. I thought you were still pending and it just said that they had sent a decision. I apologize for that misunderstanding. Best of luck with the rest of your schools!

GW
Thursday, October 23 2008 at 08:00 PM

I got a waitlisted at GW as well. I guess we just have to cross our fingers and hope for the best. The way this cycle is going, GW might end up being my best bet.

Congrats on your acceptances! I have no idea how good are my LORs cause I didn't read them but I think they are good. My softs are nothing great, FT Work Exp while undergrad, speak 3 languages, couple of org, etc... A little secret but my LSAT is actually a 163 (I'm just kind of paranoid) so good luck! Is Emory your first choice?

Congrats!
Thursday, October 23 2008 at 08:00 PM

On chicago-Kent, that's a buttload of cash! Does that tempt you any?

Congrats
Tuesday, July 08 2008 at 08:00 PM

I only got my scholarship info this past Saturday and I only found out about the OPUS website on Friday nite and that is when I first logged in. I don't know if I was able to log in before friday. PS, Don't freak out if you log into OPUS and don't see anything listed in the scholarship aid section. Mine is still not updated.

Wednesday, December 17 2008 at 07:00 PM

congrats on emory!! how did they notify? did you get the "official summons" letter?

Congrats
Friday, October 24 2008 at 08:00 PM

on Emory..I remember you said that's where you wanted to be! So is it a done deal now?

Friday, October 24 2008 at 08:00 PM

Thanks!
