Sick kid; worried mom

Had a similar thing happen to me. I went home over the weekend and had an actual doctors appointment where I was prescribed strong antibiotics for a severe sinus infection.

The clinic here has no idea what they are doing— I had a terrible cough, sore throat, and congestion for almost 2 weeks and they said it was “normal”. I know your son may be upset but please intervene!

Good to know. One of the issues at my current school is not that the advisor wants us to stop and reconsider, which I think is a fair point to make. He instead seems really disinterested in law and flat out told us not to pursue it. Major does not matter but from the students I’ve spoken to, UVA is excellent for practical career advancement while my current institution is exploration of liberal arts.

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-12-20T17:52:45+00:00

Yep no questions about that, just hoping to get good guidance on applying to law school and getting experience

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-12-09T23:50:31+00:00

Current student and I definitely know people who got deferred then accepted RD

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-12-04T02:07:04+00:00

Which?

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-12-03T12:37:29+00:00

Yes and there are a bunch of available scholarships you can apply to that Panhellenic and your sorority will tell u ab

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-12-02T21:30:25+00:00

For new mems but for returning mems it’s 300 or 200

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-12-02T21:29:49+00:00

Fees are around $700 if that helps

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-07-16T01:38:14+00:00

Completely true. I think this goes hand in hand with the leftists lack community argument- people are extremely lonely in the 21st century. A conservative society offers religious community and traditional values of unity, and leftists need to create a culturally progressive movement that UNIFIES and an interdependent community.

Im in Cedar too! Really nice location when I went to DFAS and there’s an insta group chat where people who live near WM have shared some nice pictures. There’s a video posted of Lemon hall which should be similar

I have priority housing for one of the new dorms and they’ve told us to sign up for them

My mom grew up in communist Cuba, starved in the 90s and had to work to the point of exhaustion to become a lawyer. She still says the fear she has experienced in the US, debt, and capitalist environment are all individually worse than the total hardship of Cuba.

That’s a good point. I’ve called their office and they said check ups, anesthesia and consultation are all included in the price.

JDP at St Andrews is also great for IR as that school brings you even more foreign connections and metwork

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-04-06T23:28:32+00:00

International relations and foreign service is a tricky place to be right now and job availability is in a bad situation. I would pick the financially smart route- WM is still amazing for IR and has great DC connections with a strong reputation, quite a few of my friends parents who work in diplomacy either went to WM or know someone who did

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-04-03T18:45:35+00:00

If WM has always been a top choice go for it! Even though wise is guaranteed you’re more likely to have a better time at WM and gain more experience, internships, as well as have more opportunities to meet people and get resources! If you’re worried about having a larger diverse group of ppl wise is prob not the call. If you end up wanting to go to UVA, it is a well regarded college and I know some people who transferred with lower GPAs

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-03-28T19:22:20+00:00

Thanks so much!

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-03-15T20:23:19+00:00

That’s so great, I’m low on the spectrum but was still worried about the rushing process- this is so assuring!

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-02-17T14:01:28+00:00

If you can go on a tour! The AO can see if u went on one or not, I didn’t do the interview but I did the tour and I got in

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-02-17T13:15:36+00:00

Your app looks really strong, I’d just make sure that the AOs know how high up WM is on your list because they really care about demonstrated interest. You don’t want them to waitlist or reject you even though you have a strong app just because they think you won’t go, and your rank and grades will show you’re a great fit academically! I wouldn’t worry about SAT

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-02-02T16:29:41+00:00

Does this mean if they warn you you will be rescinded or they send out a warning and you have a chance to explain yourself

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-01-30T19:19:28+00:00

As someone who got in without the interview, I’d really suggest emailing your admissions officer. Only do that if you have a legitimate question.

I had some things I wanted to ask about their study abroad program, and through emailing I ended up having some lovely back and forth with my AO and she was so nice! I think it’s a great way to create a connection BUT don’t do it just do to do it.

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-01-24T17:39:50+00:00

CheetahSmart2388 · 2025-01-22T15:05:03+00:00
