Much less exciting news than everyone else received recently ITT but I just was offered an internship position at the DOJ. Yay?

That's humongous big news if that's Pathways. What GS level does that go up to?

In case I thought NYU was playing a joke on me yesterday by allowing me access to the admitted students site, they called today:)!


Congrats to everyone else as well.


And congrats okaygo on your internship!

That's exciting because I probably can't get a government job because I'm thuggish ruggish

Congrats I've always wanted to work with the DOJ. Applied a couple of times and was not picked.

I was about to say -- though if DOJ converts you over to a career conditional spot between now and next fall, I'd seriously reconsider law school. Or attend GULC part time, at which point you'll be making enough money to where even a full ride scholarship would be less than the amount you make at DOJ.

I actually applied for your internship (if we both posted for the same one on USAJOBS), and I got dinged because I wasn't close enough to DC. Congrats, though! :D

I had to call collegeboard and reset my whole thing to get my sat scores. Needless to say, I was embarrassed with the email address I used to apply to colleges. Ugh collegegirlcutie07 smh

Also I did apply for the SEO internship yesterday or something after someone ITT reminded me. I did end up putting my actual ACT but I've read in other topics that it doesn't matter. Anecdotal evidence did that someone still received an interview after just putting an estimate of the comprehensive score.
