NighTrojanHorse's wisdom for future generations

12/10/2025: A @ UCLA

Woohoo! This cycle is sure off to a great start :) I can’t believe I missed the call from UCLA at first. I called right back, and received the wonderful news that I was admitted and under consideration for the Law Achievement Fellowship scholarship, which includes full tuition! I gotta start preparing for the interview now…I applied 11/4, went complete 11/7, and no changes after that. My portal never changed until after I spoke with the dean. I didn’t receive the email for a day or two, so don’t panic! I wrote the challenges addendum, Law Achievement Fellowship essay, and also submitted my usual academic addendum.


12/01/2025: A @ Minnesota

Really excited (and surprised) to receive the call from Minnesota today letting me know I was admitted! Such an underrated school and I cannot wait to explore it at ASW. I applied 10/22, went complete 10/22, completed the Kira 11/1, went under review 11/1, had a date change on 11/14 and 11/19, and was accepted today on 12/1. I provided two C+F addenda: one for minor traffic tickets/civil offenses, and my academic addendum. I also submitted a supplemental “experiences/perspective” statement and completed the Kira-type interview request (very laid-back, mostly about why Minnesota and some more insight into my personality). Let’s keep these As rolling!


11/19/2025: A @ Michigan

Wow, my very first A, and at one of if not my top choice school! I was over the moon to receive the email from Dean Z today and promptly started crying at my desk. I applied on 10/21, went complete on 10/24, received a status date change on 11/14, and was accepted today on 11/19. I wrote the optional Essay One (experience/perspective statement), optional Essay Two (Why Michigan), and an academic addendum. Dean Z wrote on my acceptance letter that she loved my essays and my writing voice, so I am confident my essays really played in my favor. Excited to kick off the cycle with good news!
