I couldn't wait for nyu :(. Maybe they will send me a waiver and I can get the fee back. For you guys that got one could you tell me what your stats are here or via pm. Really appreciate it!

nyu didnt give me a waiver even after my 170 on the Oct. LSAT. i was super bummed because other people with my stats were getting waivers. I even emailed them-- no luck. as other people have mentioned in this thread, sometimes schools just like to stiff a few people who qualify.

I'm wary of their fee waiver though. It's already late in the cycle, makes me think they're sending these out to increase their selectivity.

Not to rain on your parade, but I'm kind of happy I didn't get one due to this reasoning.

At the same time, we are reading WAY too much into a discount that could ride on multiple CRS factors besides GPA/LSAT.

Is January still considered late in the cycle?

Personally I would consider January to be the very beginning of the late stage. I think if you ask 5 people here though, you'll get 5 different answers.

Pretty nice, and they added a personal touch to their letter with a handwritten reference to where I went to Undergrad, which I thought was pretty cool. Anyone else get this?

But alas, the point is mum now.
Everyone gets the note. I hear Ithaca is way better in the winter anyways :lol:

It's been mentioned in a number of threads that Michigan is just plain-old nice. I didn't register for CRS until late in the game, and they gave me a waiver immediately upon emailing a request.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
