Help us make LSD better!
Tell us what's important to you
binding agreement sucks. But the fact that you'll be in a great position to just switch schools to GULC even if it's on the first day of classes is amazing! Lucky guy! I think that's gotta be like THE defining issue for most people in not being able to wait beyond like July for a decision. Gotta have time to move and settle in.
i got WLed by GULC and it left such a bad taste in my mouth lol, they then let me know that i was top of their super special preferred waitlist, but i declined to be on it

I got the II March 5th and interviewed March 16th, then got my decision April 1st. I got the special preffered list too and yeah I wanna work in D.C. which is why GULC and GW are the two schools. Like outside of the GULC WL, I'm honestly debating pulling off all other WLs cuz frankly Im happy with GW if I don't get GULC

hmmm i got into GW and i put a deposit down but I’m considering R&R bc I want to do PI in the CT/NY area
babybunny
21:37
and riding out waitlists obvi
21:38
That's fair best of luck Bunny!! If I had more confidence or a decent job opportunity I would probably R&R too but I dont so Im going to make the best of what I have. If ya want NY and CT and GW doesnt get that for you then I hope ya get in somewhere that helps further your goals!!!!

thank you I appreciate that! I went to a GW admitted students event in nyc and everyone seemed very lovely so I’m sure if you go there you’ll have a great time
21:45
I visited campus and got a tour with a Q/A with current students and I did enjoy it. Honestly that was what made me feel more confident fully committing as opposed to throwing in the towel and just praying for WL movement. I was about ready to go to OSU tbh before seeing GW but actually being there was invaluable in my decision because it made me confident that I would have opportunities there that OSU couldn't provide for what I want to do. I'm excited to move and start my legal journey this fall no matter if I am at GW or GULC!! I think I'mma love it haha and I am also just really excited to be back in school. I took the last year to work after graduating early and I needed that break (though getting a job proved difficult. But hey barista jobs pay the bills at the end of the day even if it is my weakest part of my app) so I am ready to study and read and go to a freaking library again!!!

i started a legal assistant job a month ago and I’m really enjoying it so it wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world for me to reapply next cycle, especially considering I applied in Feb this time
Still need to do chi and northwestern stuff due today ugh
Anyone have tips?
21:49
I've been a barista for the past nine months and was doing manual labor stuff before that (since graduating). I also was a Feb applicant just cuz it took me awhile to get my LoRs in! I think with a year of job experience in the field and a bit earlier submissions you'll find the success you're hoping for!!
I loved my original why Chicago and northwestern kira interview I wish I didn’t have to redo
i felt that i was less confident in my NU WL kira answers than my initial kira, though i appreciate the chance to have the written portions
i thought it was a little uncool of NU to WL me on a friday and then tell me i had to do the kira interview by the end of the next Wednesday. i get that's just the time that works for them but still booo
pug
21:53
manifest when did u apply and when did u get the wl
pug
21:54

applied early feb got the WL letter last friday
pug
21:54
@LateScandalousCaterpillar: did you get the wl?
pug
21:55

reminding everyone, mostly myself, that if I went to a school that gave A+ I would've had a 3.97 instead of a 3.84
