William and Mary, Ohio State and Boston have all called to let me know that I am in which is exciting, although not shocking for the first two. William and Mary offered me a very nice fellowship which could factor in my ultimate decision. Boston University makes me very happy because they are one of my top choices even thoughI do not have my heart set on a specific school yet. I didnt expect any of these calls so soon, but 3 for 3 to start isn't too shaby! Good luck to everyone who is also starting to hear back.

12/02/08
Received an acceptance from Fordham by email. Will be adding them to the considering pile:-)

12/17/08
George Mason called to let me know I was in.

12/20/08
Received a letter from Boston College letting me know that my application was being held for consideration. Not really surprised given what I have heard about them from others, although it is entertaining that the higher ranked Boston University should decide to admit me quickly, but Boston College wants to wait. Not exactly heartbroken by this letter but still curious to hear their final decision.

1/09/08
Received letter from Cornell that they could not make an early application decision for me and that they were adding me to the regular applicant pool for consideration. Hey, its not a rejection so I am happy:-) Will be sending them and BC additional information as requested.

1/27/09
Got an email from George Washington letting me know that I was accepted! That lifted my day up considerbly given my lower LSAT for them, but it is another strong consideration for my list. Waiting to here from Vandy as the decision was mailed last Friday, so I am hoping to not break my streak with a first rejection notice, but we shall see.

1/30/09
Waitlisted at Vandy..at least its not a rejection.

We're numbers twins! Though I submitted my apps A LOT later than you! Can't wait until I get some acceptances :) What's your top choice?
