[AshburtonGrove]

Today has been a very good day. In at Michigan and Cornell, recently completed JS1 (I think it went quite well) and scheduled interviews with Columbia and Chicago in the coming weeks. Feel free to PM me for stats, dates, etc. I'm basically in shock at getting two t14 acceptances in the space of a couple of hours

this might be a stupid question but that turnaround time is amazing so I had to ask....how "solid is solid" like above average...extraordinary?

Haha! Very valid question! I have campus leadership and community service experience. My prelaw-related activities were more extensive than what most people's probably were. I don't have any national awards or anything like that. I'd say slightly above average, but not extraordinary. I hope that helps! (And I was super surprised about NYU's turnaround! [UR2->decision was only a day!] I'm hoping that means good news for my other applications.)

Yes from my knowledge if for everyone URM that has been admitted to that date. And yes there will be another one.

Hello all,

I've been browsing through this site for years and this is my first time posting, so I'm happy to be joining you guys. I got my first acceptance from GULC today. I'm trying to figure out how one goes about securing merit aid, though. If Gtown was going to offer me merit aid, would they have let me know in the letter that I received today? If not, what are the steps that I should take to obtain scholarships? Do I have to resign myself to just waiting some more??

Any and all feedback will be much appreciated. Thanks and happy holidays, everyone!

This seems a bit overshot.

[alpha kenny body]

This seems a bit overshot.

Quoting for posterity, and to say I told you so. Black applicants overall are down 3.5% and male applicants overall are down as well.
