…it confirms that I have a shot a target schools). I got a waitlist at one target early on and missed the first several A-waves from other targets. This was a stressful experience; I kept reminding myself, “they still didn’t say no.” **Sending Applications: **I made mistakes that I regret. Mostly, I sent applications…

Admitted to Brooklyn Law School…to most schools on February 15 Toured GULC and BU post waitlist and emailed about it GULC preferred waitlist; feeler email May 30 Sent LOCI immediately for all waitlisted schools excepted UVA, Richmond, and Temple NYU hold February 6; WL April 29 Feeler email from Northwestern on July 31; accepted August 1 Public…
Thoughts on particular schools UNC “hold” is a soft waitlist, and unless you demonstrate visit-level interest after receiving it, it will turn into a real waitlist- Address went long at Michigan the Thursday/Friday before the week I got the A Gray bar at WashU within a week of decision GW date did disappear but I do…
…And none of that is really quantifiable. 6. Fordham’s waitlist is fake. I’m serious. Go look at their charts. They’re Waitlisting their A’s to get out of accepting sooner than later. They WL’d someone who got into NYU and CLS. Go look. If you got the Fordham WL, take it as an A and move on. They dont deserve your…
…to pay 8/19 update; Temple, UMD, UCSF, and St. Johns sent waitlist release emails after their orientation I did not fill out feeler form for Loyola (sent out 6/9) I did not attend the waitlist webinar for Temple (sent out May 28)
…wrote a gpa and lsat addendum (retook the lsat for waitlists and got a 166 - likely not enough to move any needles) only wrote a LOCI for fordham bc i committed to dozo, signed a lease, and wasn’t itching to move. fordham has been my realistic “top choice” throughout the cycle and i told them that. they held onto me…
I applied with a 160. Got 11 waitlists so took April lsat and got 164
While it is possible to get into schools with scholarships applying late in the cycle, it will limit your options and provide a lot of waitlists at schools you’d likely be admitted to when applying in the fall. The LSAT is a huge factor and can drag a low GPA up.

…June in hopes that Prometric has it figured out and for waitlist or scholarship reconsideration. A professional career spanning 19 years and additional softs in profile.
**Attending University of Minnesota off the Waitlist ** Applied in November -> WL on Jan 24 -> LOCI on Feb 9 -> A on April 6. This was totally unexpected but it came with enough scholarship money to make my decision easy. My LOCI focused on their IP concentration, my interest in staying in Minneapolis after…
…essay for NYU but that was it. Rejected at Harvard & waitlisted at Columbia/NYU/Fordham. Stats are the same, but this cycle I’ve written either a Why X or an optional essay for every school except UCLA, ASU, Cardozo & Brooklyn. Also added two short addenda to explain very minor things that may not immediately be…
…will start asking what’s happening with X school’s waitlist movement before you’ve even heard their initial decision on your file. Ignore it. Checking this site every day will not make decisions come any faster. Don’t compare your results with your stats twins who applied early in the cycle. They did better. You’ve…
…would have been if this cycle hadn’t been abnormal. I was waitlisted at schools I expected to get into and received full-tuition scholarship offers from a couple of reach, even super reach, schools. Considering how discouraging this application cycle was for many people, I feel incredibly lucky (that’s an…
…optional interview for Northwestern (update: also did the waitlist interview for Northwestern as well on 3/3/22) Update: submitted LOCI for NYU and NW in late march/early april. Good luck to you if you’re reading this :)
I’ll try to update my thoughts on all school decisions as they come… NYLS: Originally waitlisted but the school emailed back the next day saying it was a mistake. Felt like a lowball scholarship considering my other offers. UMiami: Had to wait until February for scholarship. Heard they don’t negotiate but try to…
why’d I kinda flop…. edit: usc waitlist👀 i actually kinda ate
…the LSAT again, take the LSAT again. Get money not waitlists. I suffered from having an international gpa (see lowball $cholly offers from Brooklyn and Cardozo) and a below 170 LSAT (WL @ UT and WashU). I was always planning to consider the schools that gave me the best **$cholar$hip. I applied to NYU on 9/15, I got…
