If I have not completed my applications, can I still see the hidden fee waivers? Every time I try and see them, it says that my app is not complete.

Finish off the required info that it wants, usually like "Address valid until" or whatever. Then hit submit. It won't actually go to the school until you pay your 12 bucks at least.

I gotta say, coming home from work to find a pack o' wavers in my inbox gave me such a warm fuzzy feeling.

If only I was satisfied with my PS so I could hit send... Do or die by Friday!

OMG USC loves me. I am soo happy. Hahaha. I know waivers don't mean anything but they skipped me in their last wave and I was supersad.

I got an email from Capital Law with a fee waiver. I didn't even know that existed...

Kinda dissappointed Temple didnt email me, guess I'll have to send them a "yo wtf" email.

Was Northwestern a hidden fee waiver?

Nice updates, neonx. Keep 'em coming.

I'm very interested in the schools you mentioned as well.

Has anyone heard anything from mercer? I tried to find an email address to send a request but struck out. Do you have to call them or am I just an idiot. Thanks in advance.

These fee waivers are a lot like grocery store "sales" that end up enticing you to spend more money.

Just found a hidden Northwestern one, guess I'll be adding them back to my list. Even though I have no work experience haha

gin · Post by **gin** » Tue Nov 02, 2010 12:34 am

Just got one from Boston University
LSAT: 154
GPA: 3.1

I have no idea why they would be sending this to me other than they are messing with me or they are trying to get their app numbers higher to seem more competitive (which is unlikely since they are already competitive enough). Any ideas?

AreJay711 · Post by **AreJay711** » Tue Nov 02, 2010 12:41 am

I got W&M, WUSTL, UCLA, USC and some others I'm not really interested in. What sucks is I paid for Vandy, and GW when I could have got fee waivers from them or maybe some of the t14 that I frantically applied to early Sat morning if I had just waited. Oh well.

Edit: Oh yea and Boston University.

lsatextreme · Post by **lsatextreme** » Tue Nov 02, 2010 12:45 am

Did anyone get pepperdine waiver? I emailed and requested one for need based and I was denied. The only school out of the 20 I requested need based waivers that rejected me.

I thought GW didn't give any waivers..?

Seton Hall email 11/2
Marquette email 11/2
Hofstra email 11/2

P.S. - How classic is the Florida A & M email reminding us that we can, in fact, apply... and also pay their application fee? Thanks for that FAM!

Mercer sent one out quite a while ago. Haven't heard anything from them post-October.

UST (Minnesota) 11/2 via email @7:12am

Via snail mail last night: Baylor, Charleston and one other I can't remember.
