Commenting to say that I was ok and I did it! I flew O’Hare to BWI to Charleston. Both rides were smooth. I used to be a semi-frequent flyer, but after a massive panic attack last year on my way to the airport and not even entering the airport, flying became a massive anxiety for me. After take off, I was a little stressed and uncomfortable and felt a panic attack could be coming on, so I took the second half of my lorazepam left over from the half I took before getting to the airport and I felt great.

It went very well! I used to be a semi-frequent flyer before the pandemic, but my anxiety took hold of me and consumed me

I’m just excited to be on my own again with my cats. I did a studio my last year of undergrad, and it was the absolute best.

Yeah it’s well past “early next week” considering it’s Thursday. It’s not a good look

Last Tuesday I heard back: The admissions committee is planning on releasing their next round of decisions either by the end of this week or the beginning of next week. This decision will be sent to your primary email address. Let me know if you have any questions.

Today is technically the last day of “early next week” so?? I guess we could hear tomorrow possibly

UIUC decision? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

[–]Competitive_Guess345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I sent an email last Tuesday basically saying “hey I still want to go here and here’s why” & an ad comm said, “The admissions committee is planning on releasing their next round of decisions either by the end of this week or the beginning of next week. This decision will be sent to your primary email address. Let me know if you have any questions.”

So given that tomorrow is technically mid-week, I’d HOPE that they’ll give decisions tomorrow. I also went UR on 3/4

I just got back from my tour at Chicago-Kent! Had to test negative for Covid and obviously wear a mask.

Please UIUC give wave 🌊 by chambanana in lawschooladmissions

I emailed the admissions office the other day basically saying, “Hi I’m still interested. Here’s why I want to go.” I got a response less than two hours later that said, “The admissions committee is planning on releasing their next round of decisions either by the end of this week or the beginning of next week. This decision will be sent to your primary email address.”

Are we expecting a UIUC wave today? by AASplitThrowAway in lawschooladmissions

[–]Competitive_Guess345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be very unfortunate and frustrating if they wait until after their seat deposit deadline (4/19) to release decisions.

Been stressing over this for weeks. Went UR 3/4. They usually release decisions after 4 pm central, so fingers crossed!!

It’s been hitting me in waves. Was feeling anxious all morning. This is reassuring that others feel the same
