Sound advice! Now, to completely ignore it:jdmonkey wrote:I really wouldn't expect anything until next Friday the 10th. If people are mailing stuff on 5/1 admissions wants enough time to make sure all the deposits get to Georgetown, and then they need to start counting them. I equate law school decisions to boiling water. The water does not boil if you are staring at it and waiting for it; it boils when you are not looking/paying attention.
I did, too. It sounds like reason for optimism, but sticker is certainly not ideal.Dmini7 wrote:Anyone else just get the Georgetown email saying" preference to come to those who will come if admitted" then going on to say you can apply for need based aid, but merit scholarship is very limited and they do not expect to be able to give any funding. Then says let us know immediately if you are ready to come to Gtown?
I am optimistic about the wording, but I just don't know if I could bite the bullet and pay sticker at Georgetown.
Yeah, just got that myself. Any idea whether that message was sent to all PWLers? The wording—as you said—seems unusually positive, but I can't tell if that's just a selective reading on my part or a legit good sign.Dmini7 wrote:Anyone else just get the Georgetown email saying" preference to come to those who will come if admitted" then going on to say you can apply for need based aid, but merit scholarship is very limited and they do not expect to be able to give any funding.

Me as well. Looks like they're being choosy. Although in my case, it may be because I haven't sent it a solid LOCI yet. I was going to wait off till Monday to send it, but since admissions is apparently meeting this weekend, it may be best to reaffirm my interest to admissions right away.jdmonkey wrote:Not sent to all PWLers.

WDH, did you send in a LOCI or otherwise express firm interest in GULC after being wait listed?WDH wrote:I got it and I am on the preferred waitlist. Not the SPECIAL preferred waitlist though.
Yes, I sent in a LOCI about 2 weeks after being waitlisted, and then visited about a few weeks after that.atomist wrote:WDH, did you send in a LOCI or otherwise express firm interest in GULC after being wait listed?WDH wrote:I got it and I am on the preferred waitlist.

Same. Just updated today.striveseekfind wrote:Does anyone know if the status checker "USA" rule applies at this stage? My address was just reformatted and the country of citizenship posted (which it hadn't been before). I read that this was generally a good sign pre-waitlist, but I don't know if it's something they might be doing for many WL applicants as they review their apps or what.
Trying, and failing, to keep a level head about this.

+1 but I couldn't tell ya when it updated because I haven't bothered checking the status checker since being waitlisted. How bad does it look if I say I will attend, and then decide not to if my need based isn't enough for me to afford it?WDH wrote:Same.
