Better yet ask yourself why you haven't received any waivers with a 161 and 3.2 GPA. No offense, but usually your numbers need to be on the upper half of the scale to receive consideration for waivers.

Waive of waivers x 10 - ok it is hard to do ten times fast

I did get fee waivers from BU, Colorado, Duke, and 'Nova and I haven't got my scores back...I just emailed them. So, I don't know if that counts lol.

When people say they got hidden fee waivers, how did they find out? During checkout? Some of the schools don't even allow submission yet.

In the past week or so i've gotten W&L, Temple, 'Nova and St. Thomas

Duke via email, around 8:30 this morning. Temple via email yesterday.

Duke by email. I now have fee waivers from every school I'm applying to, save 3 (one of which is a safety that only gives out need-based, and one of which is my top choice).

Stats?

I wonder if I got one...my score is probably not high enough.

Any waivers yet from Northwestern or USC? I got NU last year and asked if they would honor it this cycle but never got a reply. Anyone had success going down that road?

Duke by email. And until I get my score back in a few weeks I only have a 3.09 GPA and a 157 LSAT. I am a black male though.

No one has reported USC yet. I am definitely going to apply and am waiting for them to send them out (thus validating this entire thread in my eyes).

Are you fucking kidding me? I asked for a fee waiver 2.71 168 (pending retake) AA male. I hate GPA whores and those who expect a respectable GPA.

I think that's the first time anyone has refered to a school that doesn't mind my GPA a GPA whore!!!

I guess it's all relative though. I will say it does make me think that there is a psychological difference to adcomms with a sub 3.0 GPA though. Hey hopeful do you have a tough major? I started off college taking the pre med classes and even when I switched I switched to Econ.
