Did they really accept you in ten days over new years, or do you not really remember the dates? I applied on Oct. 3 and was complete two weeks later, but I havent heard back

Well, thats great. Those SOBs are sure taking their time with my application then. Im not sure why its taken them so long. I just want this waiting game to start to come to an end. I applied early, as many resources told me to do, so that I could get accepted (or rejected) earlier... We all have lives to plan! Regardless, congratulations

Well, I think you would have had a better shot PT. But full time with a later application is going to be an uphill road. I hope you do get in but I would bet on it.

Yes, 99.5% I will end up there. Like your wife, family and sun are calling me back to San Diego (read in your info). Civil law is where I plan to focus; real estate and its financing, business entities and corporate bankruptcy. How about yourself?

Nothing yet. I must have really wronged someone in addmissions. They arent even returning my calls. I dont get it, I really dont...

I am currently on spring break and have no idea if I am getting any responses back at school! Anyway...I got an email from Cal West yesterday giving me my financial aid application pin# when I went to the site it said that only accepted and continuing students could log in...I was wondering if you recieved one of these emails with your number and how long after you were accepted...Im going crazy not knowing what im getting in the mail...so i am guessing im accepted i have no idea! Thanks alot!

...congrats! Yeah, yeah, it's been nearly a month since your post... my bad! Visited SD/OC/LA recently for schools (see my reviews), and yeah, I feel the same about CalW--very professional and courteous. And I've heard that CW-staffed firms hire CW grads.. so if this is what you're looking for (I am), the job market shouldn't be too rough. Enjoy biking in SD! My fiancee and I are looking to move down in June/July (barring positive word from UoP, that is). Would you email me about your housing situation, if you don't mind? We have some ideas, but would appreciate input. And always good to know someone in the area! ...and I love how a "heavy rainstorm" in SD is NOTHING compared to a rainshower in IN/KY. And don't even mention the snow (just had more this week!) Please...

Hey...Congrats on your decision. Guess I'll be seeing you there this fall. Are you considering taking the Summer Enrichment course. I'd like to if we can get moved at there by then. Feel free to write if you want to talk about the school or housing.

Both of my brothers went there. Both graduated magna cum laude. Both absolutely loved the school. I used to volunteer as a witness when the both of them did moot court practice. I loved the staff and thought the students there were very friendly. Both brothers are now practicing attorneys in San Diego. One is at a large firm; the other is a partner at a small firm. They have no regrets about attending CWSL. Enjoy San Diego!

Still nothing... The way you feel about USD is how I feel about CWSL. They must not be happy with my pass from last year, but I called and talked to them about it last year. Whatever. Congrats on the decision. Perhaps I will see you down there.

I'm taking some risks. Enjoy law school at Cal Western (and the nice weather).

Thanks for the note about Cal Western. I've been really impressed by my interactions with them, and definitely NOT IMPRESSED with some of the other schools I've applied to. I would really like to know as much as you can tell me about the school and the people there. I was interested in what you said about a tier 4 school, and confess to some of the same reservations, but I think you can trust rankings only so far. Just email me if you want. BTW, all I had was an email exchange with USD, and I was so struck by their arrogance and bastardliness that I didn't even apply! Thanks and good luck to you.

Hey, I'm just curious to know everything you know about CWSL. As of now, it looks like I'm going to be sending my seat deposit there. I lived in SD all my life so I know everything there is to know about the school. I was just wondering about any experiences you had with current students/alumni, employment after graduation, etc. I am a little worried since it is T4, but I'm interested in learning more.

I actually got the letter on 4-22-06...It took them 6 months to reject me! I am glad I baby-sat the mailbox that long....Anyway, good luck to you.

Welcome to the CWSL family! :)

about San Diego. That really sucks. I didn't apply there, because their response to 1 email was so condescending. Hey, I think we'll do better at CWSL!

I'm actually not going to do the summer enrichment program. I will be working around 50 hours per week and the idea of fitting that in... less than appealing. Plus, I'm too cheap to spend the extra money when there are other classes I want to take down the road for those same credits. Taker easy!
