Good luck, keep us posted!

I probably should have temporarily unsubscribed from this thread, I'm retaking the LSAT tomorrow so the combination of nerves for that and for seeing a new notification that could be a potential status update about BU admissions is not a fun combination lol

I've been debating over it for a while now but there's a program I'm really interested in at another school and even though there's only a miniscule chance I would've gotten in ED, I don't want to be bound to BU

Has anyone received their admission packet in the mail yet? I got the call that I was in a few days ago and was wondering how long it would take to receive more information in the mail.

I got my packet a few days ago, but I'm relatively close to Boston so it could just be in the mail.

My packet came yesterday. It came within a week of my getting the call from admissions.

For those wondering, it's a thick folder that includes:
- A welcome letter (with a handwritten little note about what I wrote about in my personal statement at the bottom. Nice touch)
- A letter that states that merit scholarship information/notifications will be begin in mid-January.
- Another letter regarding scholarships and financial aid.
- A manual, much like the ones they send for recruiting purposes, stating facts about the law school, next steps to take following admission, etc. TL;DR to be honest.
- And a cute little book of different size/color sticky notes. Super cute.

Last year a bunch of people were pushed over to RD and then accepted a couple days later with good money. I know this bc I read through the whole thread lol

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
