So where were the 2011 school-employed grads listed? Certainly not under bar required jobs. I believe they were mostly listed under unemployed in 2011. 41-25=16. So that leaves 16 more spots to be filled. 8+7+1? But why would school employed be listed in different categories? Strange.
Gotcha, that's the explanation I was looking for.sl5uw13 wrote:
they didn't have any school funded until class of 2012. so those grads were just unemployed.

Well, it's pretty small. You'll easily see the whole law school in no time. Take a walk around the town, look at the UG campus, maybe check out some housing you're interested in.Greyhound42 wrote:Unfortunately I'll be missing the ASWs, but will be visiting this Thursday/Friday!

That's what I was told. I think that they have no idea what this cycle will bring for them. But, who knows.cbarlow1016 wrote:seriously?!!!tmoney wrote:Recently spoke with admissions,

You're not guaranteed a spot off the WL - you're burning time by "waiting around" to see if enough spots open up for you to get in. At this point, it's probably not a huge deal, but once June and July roll around, you'll need to start looking for an apartment and making other plans that revolve around where you'll live. You can't do that effectively if you're still on the WL in Williamsburg but in at schools in Richmond and Arlington. Other schools will also require a deposit, so if you don't pay those because you're WL'ed at William & Mary, and then a spot doesn't open up for you, you're waiting until next cycle. If you do pay the other deposits and then get in at W&M, you lose the deposits. The only way you don't directly lose time or money is if you deposit at other schools and then don't get into W&M, W&M presumably being the better school because you care enough to ride out the WL, so you're stuck at a school that'll give you fewer options down the road.un bon avocat wrote:But I dont get it, how is being on a waitlist actually equal to 'waiting around'. I'm sure everyone has other options, so why not just stay on a waitlist as well, just to see what happens? My question is, what actual benefit would you gain from withdrawing? It seems that, by staying on a waitlist, you'd have nothing to lose, and only possibly to gain. Unless i'm missing something?

5/1 I believe, but you had to notify them of your status by 4/1.2012Lsatscore wrote:Can someone remind me when the first deposit is due?
Yeah I guess that's the flipside to the deposit date. The later date means it's nicer for people who are in and trying to decide, but it sucks for WL. GL2012Lsatscore wrote:Cool.
