Received acceptance letter and scholarship package from Pepperdine! Dean's scholarship for $23,000 renewable for grades in the top 1/3 of the class.

3/3/09
Waitlisted at UVA. I think this is the best I could hope for, so now I need to write a kick-ass LOCI. Anybody with WL experience, PM me if you have any helpful hints!

3/8/09
Waitlisted at W&L. Grrr.

3/9/09
In at George Mason! Hopefully some scholarship money to follow!

3/12/09
In at Temple via status-checker - I will likely withdraw soon

In at American - No mention of $$$ in acceptance letter but I'll keep my fingers crossed. Unlikely I will attend, I can't justify full price at American?!?

3/13/09
Rejected at UT, not a surprise

Waitlisted at GW, again pretty-much expected

3/23/09 Waitlisted at W&M. This is a bummer, I would love to go there.

4/6/09 Waitlisted at WUSTL. At least it's not an outright rejection

4/13/09
Put down seat deposits at George Mason and Pepperdine. I have too tough of a decision right now

4/14/09
Released from UVA waitlist. They were my #1

5/11/09
Received my acceptance letter from GW today. I am 99% sure I will attend. As soon as I decide I will withdraw everywhere else.

6/8/09
Accepted off of Colorado's waitlist today, no money. Sorry CU you're a little late to the party. GW fulltime it is

yay!

How's it going?
Wednesday, August 13 2008 at 08:00 PM

hey hey, where are you leaning towards so far? i finally withdrew from other schools

Wednesday, August 27 2008 at 08:00 PM

Hi... how's your decision coming along? I'm sorry about UVA.

Wednesday, August 27 2008 at 08:00 PM

thanks for the thoughts. That's one of the big things that is helping me lean towards USD IF both schools come in with an accept. I HOPE!!! I really don't care for Malibu and USD law campus is nicer than Pepperdine's single building. The classrooms are all in the basement with no windows. yikes. Malibu is full of smog, etc. Too hustle bustle for my liking. But I do love Pepperdine programs (Dispute Resolution). Who knows... I probably won't get off any waitlist. It's all good. Yeah... you're in a tight position. I know George Mason has been seen as the hidden jewel law schools. Professors across the country have great respect for GM. Good luck... I hope you get into one of your waitlist. but, no matter what you're in good shape. :)

CONGRATS on GW... that's wonderful!

GW!

Alright, that's fantastic! I'm so glad you got into GW. Congrats! I hope you hear from the last ones soon. Don't understand what's up with SMU right now.

Wednesday, August 27 2008 at 08:00 PM

I read on TLS that you officially accepted GW... Congratulations that's absolutely fantastic. GW is such a great school

Wednesday, August 27 2008 at 08:00 PM

i sure hope I do get your seat at Pepperdine. :) I would die... if not, it looks like i got pulled up from the san diego waitlist, so that's just as exciting for me. :) I'm so very excited for you. I have several friends at GW and they love it, it's a great school and really nice campus. You're going to have a great time there. Good luck with everything!

Thanks, I'm really excited for SD. I still don't know what to do if Pepperdine comes in. I love it there but I also love SD. we'll see. Congrats on your decision. It's a big one but I know you'll enjoy it there. :)
