iowa--fee waiver (safe school--maybe $$)

waiting for my score on december's lsat for stanford since the date is less important.

Waiting to here back for a fee waiver from Cornell and Columbia. I hope I get one. I've spent so much money that I DO NOT have :(

If you don't have the money, get a need-based fee waiver.

I got a few fee waivers. So now i've applied to the entire t14 - cornell, columbia, stanford, and georgetown. I was going to apply to columbia and cornell but i want to see if they give me a fee waiver first. I'm applying to 1 of the 2 by Tuesday. Then I will wait. That will be 11 of the 14, plus Iowa and UF. I should get in somewhere with money i'd hope.

Hmm I'd apply to some rank 15ish schools too just to be safe. A 162 can be a deal breaker even with urm

that said I agree with some other posters that applying to All those schools may not be necessary. If you have good softs, a 165 can even put you in top 6. You should be just fine

Yeah that's true. Hmmm....I wonder when UCLAs deadline is. I did undergrad there, maybe I will apply. I did apply to UF just in case I don't get in to the T14 and Iowa so I'd guess I'm going SOMEWHERE. still a little nervous about it though. I'm hoping I did actually break the 160s...I FEEL like i did but you never know.
