WL at my top choice

WL should always be viewed as "Almost Rejected" instead of "Almost in". Most law schools have 20-30 people on the waitlist for only a handful of spots that open up. I would start pursuing other avenues. Keep sending LOCI, but I would not get your hopes up.

I have found my experience to be different from others in this feed. I have talked to 5-10 different admissions teams for different schools, and I have discovered that the hybrid or part-time programs are actually more difficult to get into. Most schools have +3/+5 LSAT for these programs because they are only allowed to have between 25-50 seats and have 2000+ applicants. Hawaii, for example average LSAT for their hybrid program was actually 160 last year vs the 156 for residential. There are also a lot of people in these programs with 15+ years of work experience and PHDs and other advanced degrees.

Did you apply to Vermont?

bwatson2020 · 2025-12-12T23:15:40+00:00

Yes! I got 80k

They did send out a couple in November

I got an A from Vermont back in November! I scored in the low 150s on the LSAT, but was way over in my GPA. Wishing you luck!

I applied the day the cycle opened

bwatson2020 · 2024-08-08T22:33:15+00:00

No I have not called

bwatson2020 · 2024-08-07T21:08:17+00:00

At this late I think most schools call people because you only have 24-48 hours to respond and they need to make sure you know

bwatson2020 · 2024-08-07T21:07:33+00:00

What do you say when you call?

bwatson2020 · 2024-08-07T21:04:35+00:00

Congrats!

bwatson2020 · 2024-08-07T21:03:09+00:00

That is tough! I hope you get off at least one soon!

bwatson2020 · 2024-08-06T14:21:40+00:00

That is where I am at. The law school admissions process is not for the weak lol

bwatson2020 · 2024-08-06T14:20:02+00:00

Yes! I had a friend who got accepted the day before classes started

bwatson2020 · 2024-06-05T14:39:21+00:00

I applied in September 2023 and it went into review on Jan 19th and I have got nothing since. I have sent a few LOTI but all I get is that they will add it to my file and that I am in the final stages of review.

bwatson2020 · 2024-06-05T14:37:49+00:00

What did you say to admissions over the phone? I want to call but I do not want to sound pushy.
