I am logged into it right now. My connection is being really spotty right now, which is strange because my internet is usually quite good.

ETA: the connection definitely stabilized FWIW

Is there an advantage to applying for housing early?

No. You'll be put in a lottery.

I'll only be 25 but I've been out of school for a long time for my age! Eek! Glad to see other mid-20s people.

Oh hallelujah- I thought I'd be the "old maid" in my class. I'll turn 26 in July- out of college 5 years this year.

I was at an event the other night and met an alum from a different school who went to law school 5 years after graduating from college. He said that the people who were several years out there called themselves "OWLS" (Older Wiser Law Students).

That reminds me of Harry Potter and I approve.

It looks like for other schools administrators make the fb group. Does CLS do this too? They might not since they're also the only top law school not to have a fb page.

Anyone wanna give their thoughts on ASW? I was swamped with work and was only able to attend like 25% of NYU's so I'd love I hear peoples' impressions of CLS :)

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

CLS does not make a Facebook group. So one of you get on that.

I went, and that was definitely not my impression. A few interesting panels, great food, and the students that I met all seemed (contrary to rumor) really happy and friendly.

Does anyone know around when merit aid decisions are sent out, aside from the Hamiltons and Butlers?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
