WUSTL c/o 2016 Applicants (2012-2013) Forum

[shntn]

I'm not quite ready to jump into a group that would obviously out me. I'll wait until I'm ready to quit TLS (yes, that day is rapidly approaching)

+1, even though I'm already pretty much outed if someone cared enough to figure it out.

Nah, it's nearly impossible to figure out who internet people are.

Funny story I realized last week that someone posting on this site happened to be someone that grew up on the same street as me. I pm'd him something just to mess with him and he sent "yeah Ive known you are for a while XXXX" it was a humbling moment

That's crazy. I know a friend of mine is on TLS and I have narrowed it down to a few people.

Cuse just nailing it left and right. WUSTL should have you on payroll.

Okay now that Im officially rejected from NU I think I want to house this thread until I get my wash u decision (a rejection? Most likely)

I hope that's okay, or are there some HOA fees I need to PayPal somewhere?

Gotta admit NU stung, but gotta carry on.
One of my mottos in life is: it is what it is.

Hopefully! I think there's gonna be a lot of movement between now and the 15th...if there isn't then it would mean that WUSTL will have to send out a large chunk of decisions after or during the initial distribution of scholarship awards. I can't really see that happening considering how many applicants must have applied in December/January.

Good luck!

After being shred to pieces on the choosing a law school forum I hope this thread will be a wave of fun and games today.

You can't escape the 'Retake, ED UVA.' This is TLS.

I feel like I am following jay jones everywhere. I am sitting in here as well. I have heard great things about the school, but unsure if I can see myself there in the future. Only time will tell. Hopeful for good news for us all .

Yes you can, just have a shitty GPA and you'll get "Retake, go to Northwestern"

Cuse and I were talking about this the other day.. Since the WUSTL Law apparel selection is really weak and the stuff they do have is ugly, would anyone with some graphic design talent want to design a sweatshirt or something that we can have custom printed for people who want one?

See what Dany says. She's crazy good with this kind of stuff.

This got me looking at the online store, and all they have is what appears to be a blank sweatshirt with the WUSTL logo and "School of Law" copy-pasted onto it. As I'm a couple time zones away and won't be able to visit till ASW (or later), is the selection really that bad? Not that I would base my law school future on apparel...or would I?

That would be awesome.

A part of me thinks that it could just be as easy as telling Clifford or someone in the office that there's a lack of desirable law school apparel..Maybe they'd just make more options for us...Even if they didn't I know students at other schools have internal apparel sales as class fundraisers and stuff...I'd be surprised if the existing classes at WUSTL never did this, and if they didn't, it wouldn't be hard for us to do anyway

Yup. It's a lost cause really.
As for WUSTL I'm not expecting much and preparing myself for a rejection. But hey this thread is fun and has great people, so why not house it till then?
