MysteriousBrightPepper '24–'25 app cycle Class of 2028 class year

Minnesota- did interview and got response a week later. interview important to do

ASU- did not write any of their essays and only applied because it was free. I wasn’t gonna go if I got in anyways

Temple- got scholarship with acceptance. got what I expected when I applied

1/30 no response from any school in January so far (not including asu). This cycle is so slow I just want decisions

Pitt- got an email congratulating me on acceptance and asking to apply to their full tuition scholarship. Does not feel like the official acceptance email. Acceptance email came in about an hour and a half later

ucla- a little disappointing I was hoping for at least a waitlist. Wrote their extra essay thing

Davis- got email at 6:05 PM accepting me. Financial aid email to come shortly

BU- got the call around 12 ET. financial aid came with admissions packet. Two days later they sent a revised scholarship offer without any prompting

UCI- scholarship came a few minutes after admission. Not as much as I wanted. Will negotiate

loyola- got admissions email and waiting until 2/26 for financial aid. Will try to negotiate for full tuition

Notre dame- got email around 3-4 PM ET. Got scholarship email a few minutes later. Will negotiate with them for higher scholarship

USC- got email around noon. Scholarship negotiation pending

Final Update- I’m going to Notre Dame next year. Although I didn’t get as much money as USC, I’m attending law school with my fiancé. Thus we chose from the schools we both got accepted into. It hurts to turn down such a good offer but I know that it will all work out.
