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

Oct 23, 2024: I just submitted all of my applications today after Oct. LSAT decisions came out, and am feeling pretty nervous. It’s hard to feel confident about my chances during such a competitive cycle (and I should probably stay off reddit but it’s hard). Wishing the best for everyone going through this process!
Oct 30, 2024: I got my acceptance call today!! I’m so excited to be starting the next part of my academic journey and feel really blessed :)

Tips for prospective applicants:
Really work on crafting strong essays that show your passion and life story, and make sure that they tie in together.
For students who may not qualify for LSAC’s fee waiver, many schools offer alternative fee waivers from them directly that you can find on admissions websites. That’s how I got most of mine!
If you’re still in undergrad, I recommend sending in your transcript to CAS see what it is currently. I had an undergrad gpa that was high junior year, but came out to be almost .3 lower when calculated by CAS. This meant I had to retake some difficult classes senior year, but I managed to raise my gpa by the time I graduated!
