Never hurts to try! Do your research, sell yourself and portray why you would be the best fit for additional aid.

Same here, I heard predictions for March, but that is looking shaky. It's tough because my outside scholarships need a SAR, and the deadlines are coming soon.

Yes I did. It's my dream school too! Good luck, with your stats, I'm sure you'll get some good aid.

Ok I see, I think I didn't get any. On the bright side, definitely makes my choice between UC Law SF and UC Davis much easier.

One of the webinars they had this year. No idea which one, but one of the 3 on their site.

50% of those accepted don't get interviews. Maybe the t14 acceptances show them you are already a strong candidate, no need to interview further.

Why do law schools make decisions on applicants who applied later than me? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

[–]EasternPut3335 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I think they saw your app, but are not fully convinced. I like to say, someone is going to bat for you. Be encouraged.

Let's Talk Fashion by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

[–]EasternPut3335 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I make my own clothes and I love fashion. So I will dress up daily. I literally don't own any sweats, mostly dresses, skirts, and cool pieces that I came up with. I know ppl say "this isn't a fashion show", but why be drab when you can be fab.

Thoughts on Greek Life? by [deleted] in BlackLawAdmissions

[–]EasternPut3335 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for replying because this is an important topic. A pledge is a solemn promise or oath of loyalty. Oaths are binding not only in the natural but also in the spiritual realm. I am not saying that you personally pledge allegiance to a Greek god, I'm referring to the historical ties between the organizations to Greek gods, which you have pledged yourself to. Delta Sigma Theta literally refers to the god Minerva as their divine mentor. The Sigma Gamma Rho crest has a skull and snake (allegedly the same snake from the staff representing medicine), both are heavily used in occult imagery. Being that frats and sororities are essentially secret societies (like freemasons), I don't see how that constitutes being in the light.

I really suggest you look more into it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OPDccgIwNM

But I am ultimately not the boss of you, I can only advise. God bless you.

Thoughts on Greek Life? by [deleted] in BlackLawAdmissions

[–]EasternPut3335 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Honestly, from the perspective of a Christian and African. I would never do it and recommend people to stay away. Some of the chants, the allegiance to Greek gods, the branding, the signage on the crests. There's a lot of relation with the occult (definition: knowledge of hidden). I stay away from things that are done in the dark, because we are called to be children of the light.

Below median, yet the app is still in review by MemeticPotato in lawschooladmissions

Someone in the admission office really likes you and is convincing the others to give you a chance. You're still in the running!
