No offense, but the truth is... be above 1 of their medians (without being way off on the other)tylerdurden8 wrote:http://www.usnews.com/education/article ... law-school

This. UMN is like UVA, get above one median and you're likely to get in. Be above one median and above 25% for the other, and you have an awesome shot.ThreeRivers wrote: be above 1 of their medians (without being way off on the other)

what is the general consensus on if your status checker has seat-deposit deadlines listed while it is under review? None of my other status checkers have this.

I like it a lot. I actually can't think of any complaints, although the stress regarding grades and jobs is mounting. But that will be the case at almost any school.tylerdurden8 wrote:Nice.

If any of you have questions about the school feel free to ask. There is also a thread in the ask a law student forum devoted to UMN.
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.

I highly doubt UMN admissions would say such things as "all that matters is getting about 1 median." loltylerdurden8 wrote:I didn't know everyone here worked for UMN admissions...

Re: Minnesota c/o 2016 Applicants (2012-2013 cycle)
I am very excited for this cycle and hope to gain admission, but I would encourage all my fellow TLS gurus to check out the law school transparency employment statistics for this fantastic school. It would appear that for a number of reasons, the employment stats are not up to par with some of UMN's peer schools. Of course, it could appear this way for a number of reasons (including employment stat boosting by competing schools), but it is worth checking out none-the-less. Most of you probably already have, and again... good luck!

I'll add to this by saying that the career services people at the U are very accessible to prospective students. If you shoot them an email they'll get back to you. I had a bunch of questions for Alan Haynes, the director, and he was very open with me.michaelm55 wrote:I am very excited for this cycle and hope to gain admission, but I would encourage all my fellow TLS gurus to check out the law school transparency employment statistics for this fantastic school.

People should also realize that MN doesn't have much of a biglaw market, and Chicago is super-saturated right now, so if you're biglaw or bust you should really be looking at schools that feed primarily into NY or higher-ranked schools.
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
