NYU c/o 2018 Applicants (2014-2015) Forum

Since I've been UR2 since 1/7, I'm officially joining the #DLSNever Team, and to be honest, I'm getting pretty bored of waiting for my rejection/WL. NYU, please hurry up and break up with me so I can just move on.

It's honestly a pretty cruel way of doing admissions. A lot like a "screw you for applying, now wait 6 months for a rejection."

DLSnever since early December here. I have seen a lot of people discouraging LOCIs before an initial decision... However, I applied to NYU largely because of a dual degree option that very few schools have. I was already accepted to the other program. I am not sure if the Law School will be informed by the other school but I would like to make sure they know. Does anyone have any insight as to if they already know or how to inform them?

IN VIA PHONE CALL! Complete 3/3, I thought I was still UR1 as of yesterday but I guess I didnt notice the change from UR1 -> UR2.

I think that is the kind of thing that's worth an update at least? Maybe not quite a full-blown LOCI, but something updating your file with your acceptance to the other program and that you're still very much interested/would attend if you got into the other half of the dual degree.

I'm still at UR1 from 2/10 (same day I went complete)...does this mean I should expect a ding?

[RubyRod]

I've been "Application Under Review" since 2/11. Is this what you guys mean by UR1 or is app just not even worth the first pass?

[hopeboaltberkeley]

The wait is killing me. With my numbers let's just say I hope there is wait list movement this year

[nawi226]

Just got a ding from Uchicago. NYU is now last of 12 schools I applied to, and I applied a month and a half earlier to NYU than all others.

No acceptances anywhere else or just waiting on NYU?

Plenty of acceptances and scholly offers, I just don't want to make a decision when there is still a school I haven't heard back from yet haha

[girllovesgoldfish]

i have a job - law school would be helpful towards my goals, but isnt necessary and definitely not worth moving

Isn't there another law school in town with similar outcomes as NYU?

yeah why not Fordham

[girllovesgoldfish]

opportunity cost doesnt make sense unless its a top 10 school - decided against columbia for other reasons

Still, (1) there is certainly a second law school in NYC worth attending besides NYU (no not fordham of course) and (2) even if you don't actually want to any other school, getting in & getting aid elsewhere provides leverage for scholarship negotiations, which is good even if you are rich

I can't imagine a real reason for not at least applying for leverage. Tbh, I can't imagine having a real reason to go to NYU but not Columbia (assuming equal costs).

you are obviously overlooking school colors; just compare that bold purple to CLS's weak-ass baby blue

Not to mention, Columbia does sound similar to a TTT country.

[lokikoala]

Totally shocked. In @ NYU w mediocre stats and good softs, I guess. After a recent waitlist, this couldn't have come at a better time.

Congrats lokikoala!!!
