Yeah that's super weird and I didn't remember until after I posted. I guess they are still doing CRS searches to try and solicit applicants.
Not the worst idea, not everyone knows, or knows to even look, to see that it's free.

Penn waiver here, too.

Did any of you do the Boston College 'Fast Track' application? If so, did you hear back yet?

The ones I have been to you don't have to ask, they just give it out. Either they will have a piece of paper with a code on it, or some schools have a sign-up type of thing and they ask for your LSAC number and then they email you a waiver.

What is this 'Fast Track' option? I am applying to BC and haven't heard of it.

It was part of the BC fee waiver email from a couple of weeks ago. I actually just got in a few minutes ago, I'm really happy about it :D

I got the BC fee waiver and fast track last week, my application is all filled out, but I'm waiting on my september score. Should I submit now with only my june score showing or wait a few days and hope my September was higher?

What exactly did it say about the fast track? Did it have to be offered? The reason I ask is I solicited a fee waiver and submitted my app before they sent the email with the fast track offer, and I'm wondering if I'm "grandfathered" in to the fast track offer, or if my app is pushed below all of the fast track apps.

I would assume you're not "grandfathered" in, but I also doubt they just shove you behind the fast track pile. Then again, you never know, either way, they seem to be pretty fast with their decisions whether its the so called "fast track" or not.

I'm in the exact same boat as you as I also solicited a fee waiver and sent in my app before the email, Hoping you're right but I'm not exactly sure. Have they been fast with admissions in the past?

Got the redundant USC e-mail about a week ago.

Today, got another Harvard e-mail. No fee waiver, just a blast I presume. I'm not competitive there, for what it's worth.

You should make an applicant thread.
I'll make an applicants thread tonight if it's not done yet!

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
