Did anyone finish their loans process yet?

I did all of mine but it still says CERT on my award letter:

CERT: Loan has been processed by this office; go to Promissory Note Instructions Section of the website

On that section of the site it says that the Master Promissory Note needs to be signed. But isn't it e-signed when you apply for the loans? I haven't received anything in the mail.

My Novasis also says "CERT," but I got a letter from the loan provider confirming the promissory note has been received. I would give it another week or so.

how long did you wait? ive been waiting for about 3 weeks now.

I waited about three weeks as well.

And we might have similar schedules, my T/Th start later in the day too.

Well I called Financial Aid and they said everything is fine, I just have to wait until loans are disbursed. Thanks!

My earliest class is 8:40 on Mondays and Fridays, which isn't too bad! The rest of the days I start at 10:15, 11:15, or 3:40!

same here. i wonder if we're in the same section.

[CarliRose]

anyone mind sending me a copy of their schedule?
i'm trying to figure out what mine will be so i can figure out daycare/preschool for my kids...
(I know there's probably at least 2 sections, but it would be helpful to have SOME idea of what the schedule is/could be.)

[alibaba286]

i'm so flipping excited about my schedule.

i was a biology/econ major, and grew accustomed to 4-, sometimes 5-hour labs at at least twice a week (never, ever, fail to declare a major until the end of sophomore year, then decide to do a hard science. neverrrr.) so the idea of only having class 4 days a week and a perfectly reasonable schedule otherwise is sweet.

if anyone is wondering:

MW torts 8:40-10:30
M legal analysis 11:15-12:30
MWR crim law 1:15-2:25
MTR civ pro 3:15-4:25
R legal research 10:40-11:30

so monday might suck a bit. whatevs. fridays off! and i'm extra-happy because i'll be able to go running/to the gym before class every day (if torts was any earlier, that would've been a problem for me. i love bed.)

[CarliRose]

thanks!
you're right- that is a great schedule! hope i get lucky enough to get something similar!

[ObLaDiObLaDa]

They must take commuting into account. My schedule starts 11:15am usually, with my earliest class at 10:40am!

Thank you thank you thank you Villanova! I'm quite happy I don't have to get up at 6am everyday.

Also! I have Professor Juliano from the accepted students day presentation for Civ Pro. Sweet.

AH! You're so lucky! My Fridays run from 8:40 to 4:40!

[ObLaDiObLaDa]

On my Friday I'm in class at 10:40, then I don't have class again until 3pm. I guess that means a good amount of time in the library on Friday's.

If you click the class name, you can see the professor and if you click the class name, you can see who else is in your class. But I've heard things can change between now and orientation.

I really hope my schedule changes. I have three classes on Friday, the last one ending at 4:30.

Is anyone gonna be living in radwyn, im looking into it, but from what I can see from the posts, noone else really is. Do alot of law students live there?

I don't know much about Radwyn but I think a fair share of law students live there! I found that Radnor was the most decently priced apartment building though! And it's literally a 5 minute drive to the law school.

[biggamejames]

Anyone want to help hook me up with tickets to the UL // 'Nova game?

[pinkanchors]

alibaba286- I have the same exact schedule as you except I have R legal research at 9:40!

I know this sounds a but "gunner-ish" but is anyone doing any 0L Prep? books, E&E's, Hornbooks, etc.? I just ordered a few books that I told myself I would read before starting school just to get my head right bc if school started tomorrow I would really be hurting...

The books I ordered are:
- Getting to Maybe
- Law School Confidential
- LEEWS

I will admit I was nudged a bit by this thread and others I have read during my time hear on TLS which I have compiled (also which have been compiled at the end of Arrow's informative post above).

i'm not. i think my time will be better spent relaxing so minimize any chances of burning out during the year. but that's just me. to each his own.

[n4sir1999]

lets have a bar night sometime before school and orientation starts. I'm not familiar with the area yet but we should all meet up one night, say the week of the 17th of Aug.

[lilmissdanna]

Criminal Law A: MWF 11:15-12:25
