Checking in. Leaning towards Illinois, but, still considering two other schools.

Same here! Illinois is my safe option, and I went there for undergrad, but I am really looking to branch out and try new things. I do love UIUC though...

Checking In....kinda. Not committed yet as I'm still weighing two other offers, but figured I'd post anyway.

Is there a Facebook group / anyone interested in starting one?

I don't think there's a facebook group yet... I would be interested in joining.


Checking in! My list is down to a few schools (1 waitlisted, 1 still waiting).. So realistically, UIUC is my top choice at the moment. :D

Finally got my my snail mail acceptance packet, had a non-generic hand written line in as well. No doubt they do that for everyone accepted, but nice touch nonetheless.

That's cool. I didn't see anything like that on mine.

Still going back and forth between two schools and a T14 waitlist but I'm leaning pretty heavily towards UIUC. The program looks amazing from what I've read. Excited to see everyone at ASW!

I think the Facebook group would be cool but maybe people don't want to share their actual names yet.

Maybe an FB group after the deposit deadline in April.

I wonder if anyone will play an April Fool's prank on ASD...

It seems to me that a lot of people in the thread are still weighing their options. I know for sure that I'm attending. Anybody else?

I am just waiting to hear back on financial aid... but I am more than likely going to be attending Illinois. I am actually visiting in mid-march.

Yeah I went to Illinois for undergrad and I got a good scholarship offer so I've pretty much made up my mind. I'll probably go on a few other visits just to take time off work thoughn

Yeah I'm pretty set on Illinois since I prob won't get much money from the couple I'm waiting on. Considering visiting some NYC schools since they have stipends lol probably won't though... I think it's still useful to do other ASD for comparison..

Yeah it's nice to get a few different perspectives. I did it last cycle when I applied but I chose not to attend. Now I'm doing it just to have an excuse to use up vacation days without my boss getting pissed.

Pretty much official over here. Just rescinded my applications at every school except UIUC and a waitlist.

Looking through some past threads it seems like a lot of the apartment complexes start taking apps this time of year or start their waitlists for the fall. I'm thinking about heading down to campus soon to check them out and possibly put my name down.

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.

Yeah I just don't know if I even want to try to find a roommate or just get a one bedroom for my first year.

I am visiting the area next week and called a few apartment complexes about availability in the fall. They said that a lot of the apartments fill up in the beginning of summer... so I would recommend reaching out during the beginning of summer especially if you already know where you want to live.

Thanks for the info! I've been thinking about apartments a lot this week. Have you narrowed your list at all?

For apartments? Yeah, I narrowed it down to two options and will be visiting them. I am getting a one bedroom and the rent looks to have a range of $650-800.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
