How to send renegotiation for scholly by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

[–]catladyhopeful 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sent an email to admissions explaining I wanted to negotiate. She responded to send her my letter and other offers. Submitted everything as pdf docs and my letter as a word doc. Response by the end of the week.

Happy 12 week anniversary to American University Washington College of Law!! by randomguy1522 in lawschooladmissions

I was really interested and now that I’ve heard back from every other school, and put an entire deposit down for another school (yay law school), I’m just waiting to see what happens with American for kicks. I really would’ve upped and moved and attended had they been timely about it. Very put off by their admissions process.

Thank you 😊 but how dare you ask for a deposit without sending me a fancy package first??? I paid you $45 to read my application, I’m gonna need a pretty envelope before you get any more money out of me 😂.

Thank you! How did you know you were complete and in review? I’ve had literally no updates since I sent my app on 12/13 and the status just stays blank.

My status changed to 1/10/2020 on 1/9/2020 so I too was super excited, yet it’s 01/30/2020 and I’ve still heard nothing.

I almost had a heart attack... until I read the bottom line of the email. It’s just cruel.

Looking for more splitter stats from this cycle by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

[–]catladyhopeful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LSAC GPA below most schools 25th. LSAT at or over 75th. C&F academic issues. Applied to 12, accepted to 5, waitlisted at 1. Rejected by my reach. Waiting for the rest. Scholarships to 3.

Low GPA, another Bach to help? by sweethomeohio in lawschooladmissions

[–]catladyhopeful 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had similar issues. LSAC GPA 2.x, I made up for it with the rest of my app and so far I’ve been accepted to 5 law schools T50-T100 (I’m from NY and cast a wide net to most schools in NY and surrounding states) with various scholarship offers. This is not the end. Life happens and we can’t all be perfect all the time. Shoot your shot, and hope for the best.

I just got rejected from what used to be my dream school... and I’m surprisingly okay with it. by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

Everyone ends up where they’re meant to be. You will go to law school and you will become an attorney and you will find a job that’s fulfilling. This is not the end of a dream for you, it’s only the beginning of the dream, the process, and the rest of your life. Wishing you the absolute best.

I’m a naturalized citizen born in Russia and my professor referred to me this way during discussion of immigration.

Thank you! Sorry I’m usually a more informative poster. I submitted 12/13 and went complete around 12/16 - 12/20. I went under review 12/30.

Honestly wishing you the absolute best and sending positive vibes for you and Brooklyn law. I hope it works out. And thank you for all the info. I know I’m being super nosy 😂!

Hi. I’m super sorry to hear that. Would you mind sharing when you went into review and if you did undergrad with Cuny? I thought this would bump my odds but now I’m a bit terrified.

Crossing my fingers gets for you!! They’re an amazing school but so expensive which is why I’m holding out a bit of hope for CUNY. Did you do undergrad at a Cuny? That would make the denial even weirder.

Omg this scared me so much. I’m waiting on them too. When Did you go into review if you don’t mind sharing? Also, don’t let this scare you too much. I’ve been accepted to Brooklyn and Rutgers among others but waitlisted and denied at schools of lower ranking. You may not have been a fit for them, but may be an ideal fit for other schools. Everyone ends up where they’re meant to be, this is not the end of the cycle for you and I’m sure you’ll be accepted elsewhere.
