Extra Curricular Information

I play electric guitar. I am in a band scheduled to play in five states this year, and possibly a USO tour in the middle east... that's included in my personal statement, of course.

Additional info & updates

I have a rockin' gpa and a not-too-shabby lsat. didn't go to any type of crazy school. have some extracurriculars going on, too.

I figure my application is just good enough to at least have some of the top 25 schools accept me. I applied to seven, so evern if my chances are slim I will have a lot of chances! Although Vandy is my first choice, I feel like the best schools I have a realistic chance of getting accepted to are Washington & Lee in VA, Washington in STL, and Emory in GA.

Not sure what will happen, but i can't wait to start hearing from the schools!

1/23/2009 - My first acceptance. Call from UT Knoxville. My application sat on their desk for a grand total of a week before I was accepted. Always wanted to go to UT, and I consider this a great first acceptance. Wonder what will happen with financial aid? Time will tell.

1/30/2009 - Big white envelope from Memphis. Two schools down, ten to go. Financial aid is given in April, so we will see what happens there.

2/04/2009 - UTK Scholarship info received in the mail today, and only 6k for all three years combined. I am really bummed about that; figured I would get more. Other people with similar numbers got MUCH bigger scholarships.

2/16/2009 - Accepted to Wake Forest in a medium-sized white envelope. No word on financial aid until the first of March, but I am officially in a top 50 school.

6/17/2009 - Haven't signed on in forever, but just got a scholarship (12k a year for three years) from Washington University in St Louis. This was hands down the best school I have visited and the one with the most opportunities for me. I will more than likely be going to St Louis this fall!

I'm going to creep on your profile since we have very similar numbers. I'm probably retaking and applying next cycle though. But I will be curious to see where you get in. When did you submit your apps? Good luck!

I submitted my apps...

on January 12, I believe. I still haven't completed my Washington, MO application (finishing it today, hopefully) and I am considering applying to Notre Dame. Hey, with 163/3.9, don't underestimate yourself. it's easy to see people with 168+ get accepted to Duke and to get discouraged, but jump on in and see what happens!

thanks

It's gonna be a tough choice between Wash U, Emory, and BU...it's all going to come down to money probably. Good luck with your cycle. I'm sure you'll have some great offers with that GPA.

Good luck with the rest of your schools, and I am pretty anxious to hear back from W&L and Emory both. Congrats so far.

good luck

i most definitely will...i think :) and good luck with your apps!

Tuesday, December 09 2008 at 07:00 PM

Yeah, that's a tough break. It seems like you would have gotten more. Maybe you will get some more money from some of your other schools. What do you think your chances are at Vandy? I'm really hoping to get accepted there, but I highly doubt it. Good luck with the rest of your schools and with scholarships.

Saturday, December 30 2006 at 07:00 PM

Appreciate the encouragement, but decided to apply next cycle. Ready to go, but will appreciate the extra time. Congrats on the Wake acceptance though! Good luck at Vandy. I may give UND a shot next year.

Thanks for the congrats on Emory. Maybe you will get some good news from them soon.
