I was just waitlisted
20:19
Anyone off the waitlist yet?
18:13
Apparently STCL is inquiring if you're still interested. Apparently they still have openings. Anyone have anything to say about this??
20:34
Yeah I just got the email today too. Do you think it’s real? Will they continue to take students or is it just to keep you on file?
20:34
Did anyone apply to Thurgood Marshall?
For those wondering if STCL is really considering those who "report" that they are still interested as per the last email they sent, I believe it is legit. I answered "yes" and on the 23rd I got in.
