I signed up for CRS on May 31st but just checked and it looks like I didn't fill in the box for expected law school enrollment year.

Could this be why I haven't been receiving anything? Now that I've put in 2012, will I still get fee waivers from the schools who have already sent them out?

They don't seem to like us Feb '11ers. I scored high as well but had to solicit all my fee waivers. I've had 2012 and CRS registered since May. You might have to send some emails out as well. I would wait until after each school sends out their first round though (you can figure that out by watching this thread). I think Georgetown sent one out. UVA also gave me a waiver after I asked for it. Those are the only two so far. UCLA/WUSTL both said that I qualify (with a slightly lower LSAT than yours) but to wait until the end of August/beginning of Sept.

I took the June 2010 LSAT and hadn't been receiving fee waivers.I changed my application year on CRS and I signed up for a forum since I heard those tricks sometimes work. I did get the emails from John Marshall, West Virginia, and Michigan State so hopefully I'll start getting real waivers again?

I emailed some of the schools I received fee waivers from last year from CRS, telling them I had received one the year before and giving them my stats (172, 3.67)
So far:
UVA gave me one within 3 days
Minnesota asked for the original email, I sent it to them, and I'm waiting to hear back.

Via email or letter? And was it Priority track or just fee waiver?

Priority Track invitation and fee waiver from Duke via email.

Yeah, it was priority track + fee waiver via email.

Just sent emails to CCNMVPDNCG requesting fee waivers. I'll keep you all posted on the responses.

Priority Track is the best thing ever. Duke's admissions office is amazing.

Does Duke's priority track practice yield protection?

Curious about this too.

I don't think Duke YP'd much, if at all, this past year:

Write a "Why Duke" and it's not something to worry about. They're certainly no UVA.

174/3.53

Also 172/4.0, also got the Duke email.

BTW, I emailed Yale and Harvard asking for the need-based fee waiver forms. Yale said ask again Sept. 1 and Harvard said ask again mid-Sept. :/. I'm not sure if it's worth even applying for one, since it looks like you have to provide parent's financial info (which is lame, given that I've been officially independent for 3 tax cycles now).

Pretty sure Duke sends priority track to all 170+ scorers. Also, I've read in several places that the admissions committee grades priority track applicants on a "higher standard." I think the dean even mentioned that in the TLS interview. Not sure what that's worth, if anything.

173/3.8

This makes me happy

I thought my weak gpa was the problem. Hopefully more priority track invites are on their way.
