That's what I'm wondering as well. I wish the letter would be more clear about that, but waitlists don't really count as "seats" do they?padawanphil wrote:Yeah. Was kind of surprised to see that. It doesn't preclude you from riding out waitlists at other schools does it?Worker and Parasite wrote:Did anyone read about the scholly requirements? (that you cannot hold a seat at another school?)

From my understanding, you're allowed to ride WLs. The only stipulation is that you cannot have another seat deposit out there.Worker and Parasite wrote:That's what I'm wondering as well.

I'm assuming these students sent a LOCI and so USC felt comfortable offering them admission.
I definitely wasn't yield protected - LSAT < 170.
what was it? 169? 168? lol

They are not allowed, per LSAC rules, to require you to withdraw your name off a waitlist in order to accept a scholarship. However, if you've submItted a seat deposit elsewhere, they are allowed to require you to relinquish that seat.
