Yeah, NYU just told me that too. And I went there for undergrad, too - no slack, I guess.

I received vague answers from CCN as well. We will waive if you come through CRS types.

Hang in there. Nervous times though.

[KMart]

has anybody successfully solicited from a T14 with less than a 167?

Yes. UVA and Michigan so far. These aren't T14 but I also solicited from: UCLA and Indiana. Minnesota and WashU were unsolicited after June LSAT.

Northwestern App instructions don't say anything about free App fee until Nov 15. Anyone solicited a waiver from them or gotten any confirmation WRT the free apps?

Maybe they will send it out when their app opens.

USC doesn't appear to be charging an app fee.

I emailed them and they said fill out this form: https://apply.law.northwestern.edu/regi ... nfeewaiver while saying all applicants before 11/15 will be waived. However, you have to fill out the form. I read on USC's website a few days back that all applicants before a certain date won't be charged a fee. I believe the date is December 1st but I'm unsure of that.

Texas was because they waive all residents fees, rest were solicited. Cornell told me I was on their list to receive a waiver in the next batch this week.

Solicited Texas today. They said "You cannot apply or request a merit-based waiver. To ensure consideration, you need to register with CRS"

[BananaSplit626]

Is anyone responding with a quick thank you email after successfully soliciting a fee waiver? It feels odd not to, but I also wouldn't want to unnecessarily clutter up Admissions' already overwhelmed inbox.

quoted from email "UT Law offers fee waivers to Texas residents through LSAC's Candidate Referral Service (CRS). To ensure consideration, you need to register with CRS."

I got a waiver from Michigan through the physical mail, with a handwritten note on the paper.

Is that normal or am I just super special?

Clearly, you are the most special of everyone here.

This has been talked about, either in this thread or in the 18 Michigan thread
