There's a whole lot of entitlement on the LSA sub. Many feel that schools MUST do this and must do that when in fact schools can choose who they want in whatever timeframe works best for them. Many forget that going to any law school, particularly a top school such as GMU is a privilege. Yes it takes a lot of work to get to this point, but we are also very fortunate to even be considered. If everyone was OWED the opportunity to go to a great law school, well then it wouldn't be very special.

Although I’m happy with so I’m not pressed for a rush in my decision.
Ghost, I think it’s a stretch to say that GMU is a top law school. Regardless, I hear you. I’ve seen entitlement on the sub too, but I read the comments on the GMU sub differently. It seems to me that people are frustrated by inconsistencies between admissions’ words and actions. Some schools are more transparent than others, which inspires anxiety across applicant pools. But to your point, it shows in unspoken expectation amongst admissions staff to tell the truth and to act the way that they say they will. We cannot say or not say confidently whether GMU admissions staff has acted the way they say they have. We’re just making inferences at this point. That all being said, my personal feeling is that none of us deserve more than anybody else to get into a great school. We have all worked hard and every single one of us is capable of doing great things at a great law school, GMU included.
Did you get your interview though? :) how did it go?

Valid although I disagree on one point, I just believe the best of the best should get in before the lower. Lots of money goes into this situation, for some it involves moving across the country or taking on hundreds of thousands in loans so I don’t think being confused/upset/ skeptical is as crazy as ur making it sound.

I'm not sure yet. I'm actually on several T20/30 WLs. I've got some decent offers so I know I'm going somewhere 😊. Whatever the outcome, I feel pretty lucky to have made it this far.
You’ll end up where you’re meant to be :) we all will! (I say with fear in my heart)

I wasn't referring to any one person in particular, just the wide spread entitlement I've seen on the LSA sub in general. I've also read some posts from applicants that seem really level headed. I've seen a lot of posts from very humble and appreciative 0Ls with As or WLs.
What does an interview at George mason for a transfer student mean?
It means… you’d be interviewed… sorry I don’t think I understand the question. Can you provide more context?
13:06
Has anyone heard of any WL movement since the most recent info session? Saw on reddit one person was released
I just received an email (7/9) that after reviewing my application, theyd like to keep me on the waitlist. Are people getting released or receiving the same?
I received that email too but just saw that someone reported a rejection from gmu???
Maybe they are doing both?
22:54
I got released and so did a couple others. They said they will release some and keep others waitlisted. They said they will also do some acceptances.
I’ve not been interviewed though and they’re out next week so…

15:06
Looks like the emails are trickling out as well, I’ve seen some who haven’t received any update so far
Oh really?? Have others not heard back about their waitlist status this week?

I haven’t received any correspondence yet

I was released yesterday 7/9. Pretty bummed about this one. Wishing y'all the best of luck!

Sorry to hear that, best of luck. I’m hoping I can get an answer soon since I need to finalize plans
Did anyone get their interview invitation?
I’ve received a confirmation that my July waitlist interest form was received but nothing else
Same. Just got the confirmation on my form

I’ll never understand a top 50 school accepting people with a below average LSAT just to raise a GPA median. If you can’t grasp logical reasoning or rc how do you expect to succeed in law acjopl
anyone hear back for interviews?
No… :(
Maybe try asking on Reddit. More people check there
