locality

Read a random definition: Specification

A quick definition of locality:

Locality: A specific area or neighborhood where people live or work.

In the past, in Scottish law, a widow who had locality lands could not claim a share of her husband's real property.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A specific area or region, usually referring to a neighborhood or community.

Example 1: The new restaurant is located in a busy locality, surrounded by shops and other businesses.

Example 2: In Scottish law, locality refers to the land that a widow is entitled to use under the terms of her marriage contract. This land cannot be used to claim a share of her husband's real property.

These examples illustrate how locality can refer to a specific area or region, whether it's a busy commercial area or a legal term in Scottish law. It is important to understand the context in which the term is being used to fully grasp its meaning.

I saw that, and I saw you got the Georgetown interview invite yesterday too! Goodluck!
you too haha, i was super surprised to have received one so early not gonna lie
i heard the group interview is really chill and I'm kinda excited to do it
seems cool
13:14
Yeah, 7sage has a page that talks about the questions for each schools interview, GULC's seems unique
13:15
Idk how much of an effect it has on admissions chances but should be cool either way
ive heard the conversion rate for gulc group interview is pretty high even moreso if you have the stats
it's hard to say but i've also heard that the group interview is harder to get than the alumni interview. but who really knows tbh
im p sure they don't interview everyone and getting one this early should be a great sign!
13:16

@RustyWrangler: attend one of their virtual info sessions and they'll send you a fee waiver
@Law-Guy: Awesome, thanks! I'll sign up rn!

They've recently been sending a lot of interview invites
It means status change?

This is obviously not true for UVA. Past years show they don't send any non A results until December
