I just checked my status and... I'm in!!
So the email wasn't what it sounded like


Does scholarship info come with the hard packet or included in the acceptance email??

They send out the first batch of scholarship offers in mid-January, then every week after that. It's not included in your initial email or decision letter.

Congrats to new admits!!

Waitlisted, 158/3.73. Honestly thought I would be an outright rejection, so I guess it's something. My softs are solid so I'm guessing that's what did it.

In via email!! I live in VA so I'm definitely going to an open house. Can't wait!

Does anyone know when those who chose to defer from last year must commit to attending this year?

Why are you going back to school after 30 years of practicing law?

As an attorney practicing in the area for more than 30 years, I take serious issue with the above comments. Hofstra has a fine reputation. It is not as well regarded as Columbia, NYU or Fordham, but it is equally as well regarded, if not regarded better than Cardozo, Brooklyn and St. Johns. Law review students at Hofstra do quite well and those down below law review doing as well as an interview will permit them to do. As a senior partner in a large firm, I can say that going to Hofstra will not get you in the door nor will it keep you from getting in the door. Anecdotes from disenfranchised young lawyers are just that--but when you are the one doing the actual hiring at a firm--your comments should carry more weight.
