Thanks for restarting the thread!
Would it be too creepy to get a list going of the TLSers going to each ASW? I think it would be cool to see who we have the potential to meet.
I'm going to April fwiw.

Not sure yet which one I'm going to but maybe we can do a list in the OP? (Not sure if people would be comfortable with that, but it would make it easier to find each other)

Yeah I'll do this after more people post when they're going (don't post if you don't want to be on the list). April here

Most likely going to the March one.

Cheaper airfare + more time to make a decision + MarchMadness starts the FOLLOWING weekend = see you all in March (hopefully!)

Great idea! The FB group is doing something similar--but I want to meet only the coolest admitted students, so a TLS-only list is a good filter.

Planning on March, provided my schedule works out (might be in LSAT-tutoring bootcamp). Anyone know anything about travel stipends, by the way? Are they easy to get, and do you need to give them a full budget or just an itinerary?

Just out of curiosity: Why was it not OK to have an "In at Harvard" thread before and is now? Are other schools getting "In at X" threads? Were we all too intimidated to take the "H Students Answering Questions" thread away from the 1L grade discussion? Or did we just realize that everyone's still secretly hoping for a YLS acceptance and won't start up the C/O 2016 thread?

There was an In at Harvard thread. OP quit TLS and wanted the thread to die.

For ASW, I chose the "stay with a student" option. Then, it said that spaces would be determined by financial need/ availability, and I would know the week before. Does anyone know how this process works, or should I just plan on not getting it and finding my own accommodations?

How long did it take for you guys to get your admission binders? I just got my Chicago acceptance stuff and I got into HLS before UChi :/

Really would like to be able to register for ASW and everything...

You don't need the admissions packet to register for ASW, just the Harvard "Me" account (no idea why they call it that) for your email and other fancy stuff. I had my JS2 on 12/21 and got the account (via email) on 1/8...but it will probably be quicker for you because Christmas and New Year's.

Once you get it, you can register at: https://www.law.harvard.edu/prospective ... ister.html.

Make sure you check the secondary email you gave them when you applied if you gave them one. That's where the HLS email information gets sent because the HLS email replaces your primary email.

Thanks to both of you! So I haven't received the email either (I didn't provide a secondary email so that's not the problem). I guess I'll just chill out and hope the email gets here one of these days.
