Soliciting Fee Waivers?

Post by Broncos847 » Wed Oct 22, 2014 4:57 pm

Hey everybody,

I got my LSAT scores Monday (172) and I'm ready to get cracking on applications. However, I'd like to avoid paying fees wherever possible. I've read a lot of school by school fee waivers, but I'm not entirely sure how to get them. I know some schools send them out, but I don't really wanna wait around. Nor do I wanna pay close to a thousand dollars on top of everything I've paid so far to apply. How do I solicit few waivers? Just shoot the admissions department an email?

Thank you. One problem, my transcript is taking forever to get processed and I don't have my official LDAS GPA yet. Do I need to wait for this or can I just send em my LSAT and try for a waiver? I really want to get started on my applications.

You can't submit your application anyways until your LSAC GPA is official. You can also start the apps now without the waiver. I'd say there is no rush.
