Post-October 2012 Fee Waivers

Post by honeycomb » Fri Nov 02, 2012 11:56 am

Hoping that we can get a list going like they did in 2010: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 2&t=135295

Anybody know where we could find this data from 2011? I tried searching but came up with nothing :?

The Google doc is pretty comprehensive and looks up to date.

I've been following that, but I'm more wondering which schools we can expect will be sending out a new wave of fee waivers for October LSAT takers and when we can expect that to happen.

I'd like to submit some apps this weekend but if I have a shot at a fee waiver and they would be coming out early next week I'd like to just wait and see if I get one before throwing down the app fee.

are you guys going to start soliciting soon or give it a few more days? currently weighing the benefits of submitting now vs. waiting...

I did some more research and found out that a good number of schools released waivers two days after Oct 2011 score release. Their release was on a Monday and the fee waivers came Wednesday/Thursday. So I'm thinking I'm going to wait through Monday and then submit either Monday night or Tuesday.

Checking in.
170 (Oct '12) and sub-3.5 GPA.

so far.... UVA, UCLA, W&M, Univ. Pittsburgh, and Duke Priority Track (didn't expect this one because of my low GPA)

I'm thinking of soliciting fee waiver from Cornell and other low T-14... anyone has been waived from Cornell? I'm also a bit disappointed about not getting an email from BU and/or BC.

I'm 3.4/172 and Cornell said no. I even emailed them twice about two months apart. I was able to solicit from UMich and Georgetown and I had a hidden waiver from NU. Berkeley, Columbia and Penn said no.

I got three emails from Harvard yesterday and I'm not even in Harvard's league. What is their deal? Are they just blanket emailing everyone with a 170+?
