Just got the columbia email as well- and I had a hidden fee waiver this weekend. They said it was based only on LSAT (I have a 172, for the record) they also said they mailed me a packet. It was a very formal email, lol.

I got this too and my jaw hit the floor. I only have a 161! I guess when I get the packet in the mail I can leave it on my coffee table to impress people...

I didn't get Columbia, but fortunately Chad M. Vondenhuevel's correspondence reached me (albeit via my spam folder)

Got the Columbia waiver too. Nothing I can do if I've already submitted, right?

Northwestern will grant it if you turn it in by a certain date (I think 11/15). There's just a simple form you fill out.

Maybe Columbia will love me one day. That would be cool.

I also just got an email from the National Asian Pacific American Bar Association.....??
I got the Asian invite as well. It really made me reexamine my identity.

No e-mail :( and I have the same score. I tried soliciting a few weeks ago and got shot down.

Unfortunately, no. After I missed an important notification, I filtered "lsac.org" so no email send via their server will be classified as spam.
Don't want to miss the Valparaiso Law Webinar by any chance.

I have asked Chicago at least 3 times, including at the LA forum on Saturday to no avail. I am holding out on submitting an app until they give me a waiver.

I didn't get Columbia - and I've been getting everything. :( looks like they are going to be $80 richer.

I doubt that is the only round of fee waivers Columbia is going to release. Patience will likely save you $80.
