@TangibleSatisfyingGnome: yes!

FrequentLearnedGoose

Just got my A call!

WateryQuestionableCatfish

9:58

Hey! I applied to Charleston and I'm out of state, does anyone have thoughts about the school

WateryQuestionableCatfish

9:58

I'm in the 75th percentile

SSSplitter165

15:59

Yeah I would avoid it at all costs

SSSplitter165

16:00

It's a regional school and has an awful reputation in the region. Have been working in and around attorneys for 5 years and Charleston SOL is an instant deny to just about any job worth its salt. They've lost their accreditation several times

SSSplitter165

16:01

They keep attempting new measures to fix their reputation. They are long past fixing it IMO

TangibleSatisfyingGnome

16:06

Why did you apply then, if all you heard was negatives?

Legallyblack88

19:09

Their employment rate went up

WateryQuestionableCatfish

8:19

I got in yesterday

WateryQuestionableCatfish

8:19

just curious since I'm not from the state

KatherineBolinger

5:41

has anyone graphed transfer in and out rates with enrollment to see if underpreforming schools are masking drop outs who left after 1sst notice of academic dismissal

Latinaalaw

15:09

I applied 03/22/2024. In review and complete 04/19/2024. 04/29/2024 In review again.

Latinaalaw

15:12

I am so nervous I am a prior dismissed law student and I took JD Next to supplement my application.

@cclaw how do you know?

brieflyamused

12:19

@cclaw: how do you know??

cclaw

14:44

i got a call from admissions yesterday and they said it would've been an acceptance call except they have no seats left

cclaw

14:45

they still have their waitlist active though in case people withdraw

cclaw

14:46

people will likely drop, if charleston is your top choice i would give them a call and say you are still heavily interested

Latinaalaw

14:49

So stressful I submitted my application since 03/22/2024

Latinaalaw

14:50

I still have not received a response.

brieflyamused

16:39

oh okay im already on the waitlist, just wasn't sure if you had heard anything new

brieflyamused

16:40

they said you can expect a WL decision closer to June 1st

Latinaalaw

15:33

@cclaw did you receive an email or did the status checker state your application was on hold?

cclaw

13:02

i got a call from admissions but i have since withdrawn my app

ORCAPOLA

15:41

I'm withdrawing my application! Wishing acceptances for those on the waitlist! Deposit deadline is 4/15 so hopefully you hear after that!
