It wasn't so bad. He was actually very welcoming and straight forward. I'm not sure what's so funny.sentinal5656 wrote:pammy1985 wrote:I just walked in.unaplgticmocker wrote:pammy did you, or anyone who has done it, call to make an appointment to talk to the Dean, or did you just walk into admissions at the right time?

Same username/password you use to get to the status checker, but they have to set your access privileges first. You'll get an email when it's done.OracleFromOregon wrote:Admissions letter (and little book) finally received - woot!
Anyone know how to access the admitted students website?

First $400 deposit is due this Friday the 22nd, and the second deposit of $600 (incrementally refundable) is due on June 1st... It sounds like they might be a little flexible if you have some sort of special circumstances, but they do want to keep the process moving along since they're still making decisions.
Oracle--since you were in the same batch of acceptances as I, I think you might have the same deposit deadline this Friday.
thanks!pammy1985 wrote:I just walked in.unaplgticmocker wrote:pammy did you, or anyone who has done it, call to make an appointment to talk to the Dean, or did you just walk into admissions at the right time?

What happened, Victory? Are you deposited anywhere now?VictoryFord wrote:i broke off a piece of loci action yesterday.
Yes, absolutely yes, without a question, without any hesitation or compunction. I know that paying sticker is terrifying (trust me, I'll be doing it myself), but the thought of you taking this BLS scholarship over Fordham really is too horrific to contemplate. Even if there were no stipulations at all, it would be a lousy deal. Why should the school be allowed to benefit from your scores without guaranteeing you aid for all three years? I'm going to have nightmares about this unless you swear to me you won't do it.pammy1985 wrote:Hey guys. Ok so BLS just gave me a lil over 21K annually if I stay in the top 40% of the class. This is a big problem now because if I get off the waitlist at Fordham and they don't offer anything, what the hell do I do? Give up all that money and pay sticker for Fordham? If it was someone asking me for a suggestion about this, I would say take Fordham and run with it, but it's hard when you are on the other side. What do you think?
Just so that OS the Fordham troll (hi OS, I love you, but u are a Fordham troll), isn't the only one giving you an opinion. GO TO FORDHAM OVER BLS. However, that being said, since you haven't gotten into Fordham yet, it is not an actual option. So, for now, what is your other choice if not BLS? If you get into Fordham, go to Fordham, no doubt in my mind.pammy1985 wrote:Hey guys. Ok so BLS just gave me a lil over 21K annually if I stay in the top 40% of the class.

As Hoff pointed out, my notoriety for Fordham trolling is so great that I was recently voted #1 new troll on TLS. It was a tremendous honor.hoffb86 wrote:Just so that OS the Fordham troll (hi OS, I love you, but u are a Fordham troll), isn't the only one giving you an opinion. GO TO FORDHAM OVER BLS.

I only applied to NYC schools. I'm married and work in a law firm so getting out of the city is not an option at all. I turned down St. John's who would have probably given me a fully paid law school education. NYU and Columbia denied me. Now it's between BLS and Fordham. I will probably end up in Fordham, if they accept me. Of course, if they don't, I'll go to BLS. The question was just in order for me to get some input before d-day arrives. And OS, I knew I could count on you to tell me that I should pick Fordham, if offered the opportunity, no matter what. THANK YOU!!!!! You Fordham super-troll!!!!!OperaSoprano wrote:As Hoff pointed out, my notoriety for Fordham trolling is so great that I was recently voted #1 new troll on TLS.

That said, I hope you will heed both of us upon this very important point! Please tell us your other options, though. Have you heard from Cardozo, or any schools outside the NYC area?
