I applied last year, WL, and I got the same survey. Only difference this year is the part time evening interest. Which is weird because last year I asked if there are available seats for part-time could I offer interest in those? and they said no, only in what I applied for

BumpyRudeVulture

13:45

I think its false hope.

nugsnotdrugs

13:46

@BumpyRudeVulture: thats crazy.

nugsnotdrugs

13:47

They be playing with our emotions.

BumpyRudeVulture

13:50

lol seriously!

nugsnotdrugs

17:53

Someone got a WL->acceptance. But they received the email over the weekend, and the email's context was "stating that the admissions committee was meeting this week to discuss waitlisted candidates." We did not get the same email.

nugsnotdrugs

17:54

Also they retook the Lsat and did better; I don't think I should have hope since my stats still low lol

BumpyRudeVulture

10:38

They're definitely focused on LSAT since their ranking has been going down. Last year they waited until the week before classes began to send the final decision, so Im not gunna keep waiting :/

nugsnotdrugs

11:58

Yeah and I was thinking if they did want me, I would have heard by now. Imma sign my lease F it!!!

GreyLyricalElf

15:21

Did everyone recieve the email asking if you were waiting to consider a part time program if accepted?

GreyLyricalElf

15:23

this was the email I recieved was everyone's like this: Our admissions committee has asked about your continued interest in Boyd Law. Please promptly complete this form to let us know. Warm regards, Dean Lue Sang

nugsnotdrugs

18:58

Only to complete the for you quoted, not an email about part time. But the form/survey asked if you'd considered part time.

nugsnotdrugs

18:58

Form*

SomedaySoon

19:04

I was accepted from the waitlist. Got the call on Tuesday but I also applied for PT Evening. Hoping you all get good news soon. 🤞🏾 They said they don’t send final decisions out until the first week of classes because they have admitted people into the first week even though it’s uncommon.

nugsnotdrugs

19:30

@SomedaySoon: Congratulations!!! Im so happy for you!

SomedaySoon

0:46

Thank you!!

BumpyRudeVulture

9:48

You originally applied to the PT evening? or full time, then responded to the email willing to accept PT?

BumpyRudeVulture

9:48

And congrats!!! thats so exciting

SomedaySoon

0:25

Sorry just seeing this but I originally applied to PT evening.

InvincibleSafeDwarf

2:24

After distasteful communication with the dean, I would prefer to withdraw from the waitlist. He isn't very pleasant to communicate with and takes things extremely personally.

nugsnotdrugs

9:46

@InvincibleSafeDwarf: oh no, sorry to hear, are you okay? Did you talk to him regarding waitlist or something else and it was a bad experience?

InvincibleSafeDwarf

2:48

Yes I did, when the waitlist email was sent out. I sent an email to gain clarity and explain how the question presented to switch to part time appeared to be a snub to students who actually want part time, their only option and completed the additional part time essay in their application. He took it personal and called me harsh, aggressive and ill professional. I would expect the Dean of a Law School to welcome feedback and applaud applicants for advocating for themselves and other perspective students in a similar situations. I wasn't happy with the way he spoke to me.. and I spoke to others who have had a similar experience with him. I expected more from Boyd, truthfully.

nugsnotdrugs

17:45

Wow thats really disheartening. He's the unprofessional one for not listening/considering concerns from applicants. Maybe its a sign the school's not the one. I hope you'll be going to a school that's better for you :')

nugsnotdrugs

17:47

Maybe you and others could report it to someone else in admissions 🤷‍♂️

Fruitpunchenjoyer

12:42

do yall think UNLV is worth it If I dont really want to live in Vegas long term?

ElatedNeedlessKitten

22:43

Not really. I live in Vegas, and UNLV graduates can do extremely well here, even ending up in biglaw firms. But that's because UNLV has a monopoly in Nevada, there's no other competition here. I haven't really heard of UNLV grads having much success elsewhere-- most states have multiple law schools with higher rankings and better regional connections.

ToobGooper

15:34

UNLV gets ya under review ASAP, huh? Literally applied on the 12th, UR already.

LivelyCaterpillar

21:55

Anyone know how we get scholarship info from UNLV? I was accepted today but no scholarship was mentioned in the phone call or email.

DefinitelyRobbingBanks

16:40

Their dean of admissions called me with my A, and gave me scholarship details over the phone. Actual Scholly email came after my acceptance email though
