Bump. Anyone know when we can expect to hear anything? I'm currently serving on active duty so getting all these dates to jive is one giant nightmare.

I thought that they won't accept you until you have an acceptance from at least one t20+ school. Why are the applications open so early?

I'll be leaving the Air Force. I'm a contracting specialist so I hope law firms will value that a bit. How about yourself? Where are you applying?

Michigan, Texas, UVA, Berkley. I'm assuming you're stationed in CA?

I was told the exact same thing by people I know who participated. They didn't get any offers until they turned in proof that they deposited at a T20+ school. I was also told that they didn't even get any law firm interviews until they submitted proof of acceptance into a T20+.

I'm an SEO. I'm telling you, you're going to be waiting a long time.

I am looking forward to applying to SEO. Since a lot of us (URMs) are going to be waiting/riding waitlists to know our final school, the first T14 you get accepted to should be given to them, and then keep updating them as the cycle continues. Also, the market where you want to work should be where you apply. Good luck all!

Sorry I must have missed this. I wouldn't mind spending three years in California for law school. That cost of living though...I'll need a scholarship to offset that.

Hi guys--there's a section on the SEO application for adding LORs. I'm wondering if we need (or if it would be to one's advantage) to submit LORs with the SEO Law application?

OP should make a poll for target markets/SEO locations for everyone applying. I'd like to see the numbers of where people want to do the SEO program.

I just thought of this...so what if you want to intern at an NYC firm, but you don't ultimately want to end up in NYC...would it be smart to not go for NYC then?
