It's either automatically done or sometimes they'll give you a code to enter in.

Oh, by stagecoach? Pony express?

It's a lengthy explanation. Pick up your tin can tied to a string and I'll pick up mine.

Did those of you who got hidden waivers from NYU mark "New York" on the states you were interested in attending law school on CRS?

Maybe you should go over to Clintonville and overturn some cars or cut down some power lines or something. Nothing says "Buckeye Pride" like rioting and destruction!

Not a bad idea, but I would never venture all the way to C-ville. I would be too busy in the Short North looking at art and watching independent cinema. /hipster ;)

I emailed Georgetown, GW, and Chicago requesting a merit-based fee waiver.

Georgetown said yes, GW said no (and the primary reason I was going to apply was because of undergrad loyalty), and Chicago said no. I wish Chicago would give me one. I guess they know I'm applying anyway.

They said no to me too and I went to GW also. But I guess the undergrad was full of cheap bastards, why wouldnt the law school be too?

The general admissions office email address will do.
