When Columbia sent their fee waiver email they said they would also be sending a viewbook in the mail. I have not gotten mine. Did anyone else get theirs or not get theirs yet?

Just got that BC offer as well.

Why on earth are they asking about my ACT/SAT scores?

We need to compile a list of holdover fee waivers. My feewaivers from last cycle from Penn, Columbia and Chicago all remain valid. The only possible alternative explanation is that all three of these are new, hidden waivers. Seems very unlikely.

Did you select Mass/New England as an area you are interested in with your LSAC profile?

Does one have to fill out law school preferences/ethnicity/schools in CRS to receive all potential fee waivers?

I sent BU an e-mail asking for a fee waiver...and they were happy to supply me with one!

I'd say both, with a little punch of "duh" on the side. ;)

Successfully solicited Mich, Gtown, and Duke PT. Cornell and NYU told me to wait for CRS.

I tried soliciting from BU, but got the standard "wait for CRS" response. The CRS wave for BU seems to have come and gone, though, and I didn't get anything from them. I emailed BC this weekend, and I'm hoping for a waiver but don't expect success with their fast track (I didn't even know they had it until afterwards). I recognize that I'm being and entitled jerk about it, but at the same time I'm broke as hell and resent paying because they won't consider my request.
Given your stats I'd be shocked if they didn't give you one. What did you say in the email?
