I love The Nines already!

... would have eaten waaaay more pizza, but I felt it was a bit early to be the fat bitch in the group.

AND, I think I found my apartment; Ithaca, here I come!!

I took an entire pizza with me, don't worry about it.

Question about the Cornell financial aid sheet for those of you that have already sent them in.
Did you get a confirmation of its receipt? I put mine in the mail last week but haven't heard if they've gotten it or not.

Also interested in this since I faxed mine this afternoon and haven't gotten confirmation yet either.

Whats up everyone? As an admitted Cornell Law School Class of 2016 student, and a current undergraduate at Cornell University, I am strongly contemplating attending Cornell Law School next year. Of those people who have already decided to attend, has anyone started looking for apartments / roommates already? I am looking for apartments and hoping for 1 to 2 male roommates. PM me if you are interested.

I sent mine about a month ago - no confirmation. I did, however, call and ask about my status. Apparetly, they received it.

when will fin aid awards be going out? I'm confused because i know the dean's schollies are out, but there's also people with $$$ reported on LSN. Is it rolling?

At this rate? Never.

Maybe late March. Maybe April.

The 120Ks are people who didn't get the full ride but offered a consolation prize.

Could anyone give some housing insight? Collegetown is the ideal location, but those prices seem ridiculous. Is it worth it?
Agreed. I can't imagine it's worth it though since there are places that are WAY cheaper just a little further.

I'm a commuting student. If you plan on using a car and parking, get ready for an incredibly long walk each morning. I walk fast and it takes me 15 minutes from the parking lot to the law school. If you get here before 9am you can usually get into a better parking lot and cut your time down to 10 minutes. This walk is often through freezing weather and snow. A parking permit costs $750 per school year.

If you live around the Commons you can take a bus ride that will drop you off right next to the school. It's relatively cheap and only takes about 5 minutes.

Overall, living far away form campus is nice. If the parking lots were closer it would be perfect.

I feel like the added cost of winter clothes/boots should be an added scholarship for those of us from the south. I am from Florida and don't even own a coat!

How well attended was the ASW? I'm trying to gauge whether to go to one or to visit on my own.

It seemed pretty packed to me; the moot courtroom was full. I'd recommend attending, as I found it quite enjoyable (waaaaay excited to start now).

Thanks, I may call tomorrow--or maybe I'll just assume they got it.

I highly recommend going and making sure to interact with the other admitted students.

I emailed mine in early February and got a confirmation email the next day.

Signed my lease today, and put down a security deposit!

Have any special thoughts?

I was only there for 5 minutes and got to see the one room. It looked comfortable, but I have a feeling that may have been one of the extra large rooms.
