Additional info & updates

11/24
In at UK, really nice to have an acceptance before a rejection! Nice personal note from the dean.

12/05
Double dinged from Georgetown and UT, ouch, but really not unexpected. 0 for 2 on reaches

12/08
UIUC status check date changed to 12/08 from 10/8, but status stayed the same 'File Complete, Review Pending'.

12/08
BYU status changed to under review.
U of U status is now "review"

12/15
Santa Clara status check shows that they have sent me an ED decision, status still says 'In Committee' , Deferred for RD? We'll see.

12/18
Santa Clara held my app over to RD.

1/07
UIUC status changed to Hold for Second Review, man I'd love to get in, what does this mean, WL?

1/09
Just checked Vandy: decision mailed 1/9
Crap, at least I could have hope when I was waiting no I'm just freaking out that I'm in the first group of rejects :(. One of my dream schools-love the area and everything I have read and heard.

Received an email from UIUC verifying that my app is on hold and will be given a second closer look before getting accepted, wait listed, or denied--here's hoping for the best.

1/12
Yup, dinged by Vandy

UK sent a letter (thicker - reported by wife), maybe $, one can hope-right. Just info about applying for financial aid and that scholarships will be decided starting later this month through March.

1/16
CU rejection--the first disappointing ding, thought I would at least get WL :(.

1/31
ASU sent me an email that I have been held for RD--more waiting, but if I get in, it will be worth the wait.

2/6
Received an email from UIUC regarding waitlist.

2/23
UK offered $11,000 , basically it is fellowship that will pay for the difference between resident and non-resident tuition--very nice!

3/18
Received WL from University of Arizona this morning, the wait continues.

3/27
WL notification from BYU-at least not rejected, hope this one pulls through!

Santa Clara emailed and said that I will be either accepted or WLed by the end of April-cool

5/1
Well here it stands: 1 acceptance, 5 wait lists, 18 rejections. We're making preparations for the move to KY, but will still hold on to a few of the top wait lists in hope.

8/13
Okay, a little update. I was accepted to ASU with $10,000 for the first year, really great news. Then last week I was called by U of Arizona and offered $15,000/year for 3 years. I emailed to withdraw from ASU and they increased the scholarship to cover all tuition and fees for the first year. We have decided to attend UA and withdraw from ASU--hard decision given ASUs focus on genetics and the law.

i'm pretty stoked to see how your cycle goes... did you have an lsac fee waiver? also, what area is your gpa? i'm curious, due to your kentucky app, and future success... thanks...

hold for second review at uiuc
Thursday, November 13 2008 at 07:00 PM

i think that means you got deferred. mine just changed to decision letter sent today. we have similar numbers. i guess my result will be an indicator of your chances when they review your app again. in any case, good luck at uiuc and the rest of your cycle!

If you don't mind me asking, how did SCU notify you? I'm waiting to hear back! Thanks, and congrats on your final decision! That must feel great :)

Friday, August 15 2008 at 08:00 PM

I just saw you got off the waitlist at Santa Clara and wanted to now how they notified you it's my dream school so I just want to know any details. Thanks!

Congrats on ASU!

Hey just wanted to say congratulations on getting off the waitlist at ASU. I am still waiting it out but I hope to hear something positive very soon. It is by far my top school. Best of luck to you and perhaps we will be both be going to ASU!
