What Schools Are Still Accepting Apps?

Post by NYC1010 » Thu Mar 31, 2011 9:18 am

I was planning on taking a year or two off to work, but every single job i've interviewed for, many of which i thought my connections were good enough to attain, i've been rejected from.

Thinking of applying to law school now even though I probably won't get into as good a school as I could if I applied next fall.

I go to a top 10 liberal arts college, 165/3.4

What Law schools are still accepting applications? Thanks in advance.

even though it will be tough, you would doing yourself a disservice by applying this late, potentially losing out on thousands of dollars.

TITCR. There is definitely $$ out there for someone with your numbers, but I'm sure most scholarship funds are depleted this late in the cycle. Even if you take a low-paying hourly wage job for a year, the money you will save by waiting a year and taking a big scholarship will put you in a better place financially.

If you aren't interested in big scholarships and you would rather pay sticker at a T30, for example, you would still be better off waiting a year.. you can apply to ANY schools next year instead of being limited to the handful that are still accepting applications.

Work for a year (even if it's not an awesome job), and study hard for an LSAT retake... even just a couple more points would open up SO many more doors... all IMHO, of course... I have no firsthand experience with this.
