intitle

Read a random definition: family council

A quick definition of intitle:

INTITLE: An old-fashioned word that means the same thing as ENTITLE. To entitle someone means to give them a legal right or qualification for something. In the past, it was also used to describe the act of ordaining someone as a minister in the church.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Intitle is an archaic term that means the same as "entitle". Entitle means to grant a legal right or qualification to someone or something. It can also refer to ordaining someone as a minister in ecclesiastical law.

Examples:

  • When you buy a house, the deed entitles you to ownership of the property.
  • The law entitles all citizens to a fair trial.
  • The bishop will entitle the new priest during the ordination ceremony.

The examples illustrate how entitle is used to describe the granting of a legal right or qualification. In the first example, owning a deed entitles someone to ownership of a property. In the second example, the law entitles all citizens to a fair trial, meaning they have a legal right to one. In the third example, the bishop entitles the new priest by ordaining them, giving them the qualification to serve as a minister.

Wild that NYU doesn't have enough staff to deliver decisions in a timely fashion, but they can offer dozens of interviews to people they've kept in limbo for months.

Is it helpful to visit a law school’s campus on the WL? (I’ll be in the city this summer anyways so it’s pretty low stakes in terms of money/travel time)
my fordham WL email has verb noun agreement errors...

@PreviousSwelteringQuail: Hard to say. Some schools don't care or aren't organized in a way that a visit translates into interest. It won't hurt your chances, and it may be worth visiting just to see if you really can picture yourself there.

@PreviousSwelteringQuail: it does not help

Also if anyone cares, it seems spivey was right that we will see more Wairlist movement. UCLA and UVA are the only T14 that have truly been through their waitlists and both have already taken way more students than last year at this point. Definitely something to watch!
fwiw that's how its been for every school i withdrew from, or something like "application cancelled"
Both GW and Maine did respond to my withdrawal from them. BC and OSU did not.
anyone know if pre Aug 2024 LSAT writing can still be used after Aug 2024. haven't seen anything to the contrary but...

UCLA's waitlist volume seems similar? 10 people logged a WL -> A result last cycle, 11 people this cycle
21:20
Scratch that, exactly 10 each cycle
21:21
Although it looks like half of UCLA's waitlist As last cycle (5/10) came in June or later, so looking more closely waitlist volume does seem up for UCLA
I got an email from Emory's Office of Financial aid saying they received my aid application. The email also said "Log into OPUS, Emory's student portal, to review our online service offerings and to review your To Do activities, important messages from the Office of Financial Aid, and later in the application cycle, your aid package and disbursement dates." I haven't been accepted (I'm waitlisted), does or did everyone receive this?
nvm should have read the bottom of the email

@Ijustwannagetinman: what did you write in your email?
i wanna get off a waitlist right NEOW 🗣️
