Admitted to Indiana University - Bloomingtondreams come true! I was waitlisted by michigan last month (february 2025), and this month I requested a deferral to enroll as a student of next year’s class (see michigan waitlist faq). about three business days later, my request was approved! if you can afford to be flexible and you have a good reason to wait…
There are techniques to get off a waitlist. All is not lost! Look into writing a strong letter of continued interest and reach out to a trusted professor or mentor for a new recommendation letter. Factors to consider: things that show continued interest (touring, school-specific programs that interest you,…
…LSAT if you can! This cycle has been brutal for me with waitlist hell. I’m fairly confident that if I had a better LSAT I would have gotten more acceptances. My issue came down to timing, work, and retirement planning. Take more time with LSAT prep than you think you will need, I wish I would have started studying…
…I didn’t get into Michigan as a Flint kid. Wild that I was waitlisted at Columbia with a 3.14 GPA. Northwestern is pretty cool, highly recommend.
…They were straightforward about most admissions off the waitlist not happening until ~the second week of April. Sent LOCI on 3/8 Georgetown - Wrote Top 10 Books I read in 2023. Interviewed on 3/17, went about 10 minutes over time, received the “exceptional group” comment + dean andy’s personal email. sent a ‘thank…

I don’t have a whole lot to say except apply early and know most schools probably won’t give you a decision in the scheduled time they tell you. Waitlists aren’t the end of the world either!
…I thought was a fantastic interview with WashU and was waitlisted several months later (received two HTEs in the meantime, which I appreciated). —Held at NYU in January. —Radio silence from UMN for 6 months and counting. Assuming this will result in a WL at best. Follow-up email sent 3/22/23. Surprised by this A!…
After taking the LSAT in January 2021, I applied to Minnesota on March 1st, 2021 (the only school I applied to during the 2020-21 cycle), and was waitlisted in early May. I knew it was probably because I had applied so late in the cycle, but it was still devastating and caused me to doubt my ability to get into law…
A @Indy and Rs @Mich/Cornell/USC w/156 LSAT. Received 2/16/2021 NYU HTE ; Went UR3 @ NYU on 3/28/2021. Released from CLS waitlist 6/24/2021 via email. Did not send LOCI.
…any scholarships or write any LOCIs for the schools I was waitlisted at. Withdrew from WashU in late March - I interviewed in late Oct and was essentially ghosted. I had chosen a school already and elected to withdraw before receiving a decision.
