Feel free to add or challenge any of them. If you don't want me to update this thread, just let it die. Otherwise, start posting in here about fee waivers.

I got my Georgetown fee waiver on 30 June, U Minnesota 6 July, and U Cincinnati 9 July, just to help.

reposting what was already on a previous thread for your update.

Minnesota
Cincinnati 7/9
Colorado -Boulder - 7/14
U of Pacific McGeorge

how do you get a fee waiver and how do you apply?

some are hidden on LSAC and appear after you filled out the app and are in your shopping cart, others are sent to you via mail or e-mail based on GPA or LSAT (usually around the time you get your score back)

Just to help out with some of those dates ...

William & Mary - 6/2/09
Case Western - 6/29/09
Mercer - 7/7/09
Cincinnati - 7/9/09
Charlotte - 7/10/09

for W & M and Colorado, can I ask what your #s were? I really want those 2..

I've never understood why people think that writing an all-cap OFFICIAL in the thread title actually makes the thread an "official" one.

Yeah, it doesn't. But I needed to think of a way to differentiate it from the other thread that didn't have the originally post being updated. "OFFICIAL" seemed better than "UPDATING AS WE RECEIVE MORE INFORMATION FROM A WIDE VARIETY OF PEOPLE."

University of Tennessee
Brooklyn

(both by mail)

OH and the most important one, Cooley. (Also by mail).

You should put "2009-2010" in the thread title.

Question: If I start filling out an application on LSAC will the schools know this & not send me a waiver?

No, they won't know/care.

Baylor became available through LSDAS as waived for the 2010 App on Monday.

bump!

+1, I also got a packet from Minnesota and SMU in the mail yesterday

This thread is losing out to the other thread! :O I think you put the all caps OFFICIAL back in the title. *nodnod*

Sorry, my cycle is over and I have nothing to do...

neskerdoo asked a very appropriate question in the "official" thread.

what's the point of the thread? either you get a fee waiver or you don't. if you do, then you'll know when you got it, if you don't then just eat the $70 app fee or don't apply.

William and Mary sent out another batch this morning.

Just as an FYI, last year we bolded the Top 50 schools for easy reference. It is useful considering the vast majority of TLS members are in fact looking at the top schools.
