Congrats SEO Law Class of 2015!! You're going to have an amazing summer and meet some great people!

Did they send you information on the online training yet? Also, don't forget to take a headshot professional photo that's needed for the law firms and the class profile. :)

Not that I recall, however, it is possible. They are marketing to other firms who have shown interest.

I was planning on doing a cvs photo. Professional head shots are expensive

Do we have to send a headshot if we included it in our app/ one is in our file? Should I just resend to be on the safe side?

Nice catch! That's rather cool, albeit funny and yeah a little scary. The TLS community as a whole does right by a lot of people and I'm sure any prospective SEO law candidates will find what they need here if they take the time to ask around and read old threads. TLS probably has the single best standing repository of anecdotal and procedural SEO law info out there (which may not be saying much). Law School Discussion has had some SEO chatter in the past but it doesn't come close IMHO. I sincerely dig the fact that TLS is listed.

Definitely leads me to wonder how closely SEO follows the URM forum. :?

Anyone receive firm information? I was told yesterday so I'm hoping I didn't miss it! PS for anyone needing housing in NYC, Craigslist was extremely helpful for me. I was pretty surprised because it's not that great where I'm from.

No clue haha. I don't think they'll get to us today though. They probably wanted to get DC/NYC figured out first
