So once I have my LSAT score, is there a chance I will get some unsolicited fee waivers?

yeah, schools usually release them in waves after each LSAT score becomes available. make sure you're registered with crs and have 2017 as expected enrollment year

Also there's a bit of a hack, if you register for a "forum" through LSAC you can have an older LSAT be counted towards this cycle. So for example, I took the 2015 December LSAT, so some schools don't use the CRS numbers from before June 2016, but if you click on the right hand side of the LSAC.org site and then register for a forum (you don't actually need to go), you are automatically re-added to CRS!

Anyone get an unsolicited waiver from Columbia this cycle? LSAT is above median and GPA is way above 75th, yet nothing.

Seems like Columbia was ducking eryone. Got fee waiver everywhere but HYS Columbia and Berkeley so I just bit the bullet and paid the app fee.

They're not doing a great job of winning the cross-town rivalry!

Not sure if this is helpful, but for those who just received their September results, I just got one from Vanderbilt and Emory.

I just got one too and wasn't planning on applying but now I will. You might as well too since it's now only like $30 and the potential payoff is enormous

Any word on Duke PT invites for Sept. test takers?

I missed the cut with my June score but I've increased it and I'm hoping I'm there now
