You are not the typical w/l case and I'm too classy to call bullshit on your story.The Fiend wrote:Up to a 30,000/year guaranteed scholly at Fordham.. may be seeing you people after all if I can push them a bit higher.DTDT wrote:Chances are if you are still on the wait list you are not getting money. 7/6 is registration day maybe you all will get some w/l movement.

What's faster: taking a taxi from newark airport to a hotel in manhattan
or flying into JFK and taking the subway??
I'm asking because I can get a flight into newark for about $100 cheaper then JFK.
If its equally fast to just take a taxi, it makes economical sense.. ANyone have an opinion?

I did it for ASD last week and was extremely easy and the cost from EWR to the school, < $15. Took maybe an hour.

Hey everyone just wanted to check in as I haven't in a while!
I can now say with 100% surety that I will be attending Fordham in the fall
I could not be more impressed with the administration (who is infamously notorious on this thread for being so "stingy"/"cheap"). I retook the LSAT in June, (actually slightly disappointed & really should have done better) but nonetheless, I improved from 166--> 169 (UG GPA=3.4), and Fordham turned around with an immediate $20K/year offer. Extremely helpful to finance my legal education, and more then helpful in making my decision finalized. Can't wait to be in NYC soon!

Do we have any summer reading or is that limited to whatever first assignments we get once schedules are released?
