…I did. George Washington: Jan. 12, ACCEPTED- Receiving a waitlist offer from GW was rough, especially because it wasn’t a top school on my list. I wonder if it was partially because I rejected their offer for undergrad. UC Berkeley: Jan. 17, ACCEPTED - Getting an A from Berkeley was completely unexpected! My first…

Final thoughts: Overall I took Emory’s binding offer instead of hoping to get off the waitlist. I hope my thoughts below can be of some help to future applicants. I had the hardest time deciding between UF and Emory, although keep in mind I never went back to UF for money. I didn’t have time to tour, and although…
…re-evaluate my file and that I would receive a decision of waitlist, deny, or admit by March 17. I was sent an email in the late afternoon of March 17 inviting me to join UGA’s waitlist (which you automatically join). “Decision” indicates being waitlisted. Northeastern: “UR” as February 19 is not accurate; it was…
…invaluable goodwill later. **Date change tea leaves and waitlist/hold notes: ** Emory took the longest to get back to me. The “pay deposit” button in Opus appeared under the usual “admissions” tab.- GSU scholarship info: looks cheap, actually is my best offer so far. $2000 for 1L, but full tuition + $4000/year…
…Fellowship + Programmatic Contribution UNC:- Why UNC **WAITLISTS: ** Cornell interview invite March 12- Michigan feeler call May 6 I played the waitlist game. I sent LOCIs to Duke, Penn, UVA (in the feeler form), Berkeley (in the feeler form), Cornell, and Vandy. Cornell received LOCIs from me after both of their…
…with good news. After being devastated upon receiving a waitlist invitation from my top choice, and begrudgingly coming to terms with the fact that I may have to attend the same university at which I earned my undergraduate AND graduate degrees, after four months, I was not only accepted into Emory Law, but given a…
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…
…(can’t be 100% sure). Took their dear sweet time but the waitlist came via email at 7 am CST on 2/29 UGA: Got the hold via email on 12/19 (along with everyone else). Final update came 3/15 via the portal. Email came hours later Emory: Decision rendered on 4/8, email followed a few hours later. I got a deposit…
…LSAT score, or yourself - especially yourself! Regarding waitlists: While my rejections hurt, I began to see them as a blessing as this interminably slow cycle dragged on and on. Waitlists require much more work and expressing continued interest for a school that has been dangling you from a string for nearly half a…
…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…
…Interviews: WashU (invited in Nov) NU Kira, both rd and waitlist interviews LOCIs- Sent these before I heard back to UVA and Northwestern 2.) Still apply early- I noticed that splitters with similar stats who got into schools I was waitlisted at, applied earlier. I know this cycle was hellishly slow, but don’t be…
…and wrote a LOCI on it. Put on hold in december then waitlisted february, honestly I have not been super impressed with the way that GULC addresses applicants (put me on hold to “get a better sense of the applicant pool” then let me know that I was in the bottom group of the waitlist so “should deposit somewhere…
…In regards to Emory, I removed myself from the Waitlist (on the phone with an admissions counselor) yet a week later got a call from the head of admissions who offered me admission as well as a $120,000 scholarship. He had no knowledge of the conversation where I removed myself from the waitlist.
…spoke to my close family and friends when I got accepted, waitlisted, and rejected. They cheered me on at times and they consoled me at other times. I could not have gone through this process without them. Maybe you do not have close family or even friends to share in your struggle, but you have this website! Find…
when the chile is tea but the finna is gag sis i’m dead as a chile below is what happens when you apply late aka in a frenzy late-January to early February (waitlists lol)… if you’re in the same boat as me, make sure you apply widely. UT was kind of spur of the moment based on my Feb LSAT result and it’s where I’m…
…2/6 with 168 LSAT with 100% tuition + 4k summer PI stipend Waitlisted at Tulane 2/27 WTF??? withdrew Waitlisted at ASU 3/5, withdrew
…activities that aren’t academic! Write LOCIs when waitlisted if you are serious about attending a school. Wishing you the best of luck! Everything will fall into place. You got this.
