No movement for splitters, it seems. Looks like they're getting the people above both medians out of the way first.

Hey all,

Does Boston College offer fee waivers? I was considering throwing an application their way until I realized I never received a fee waiver from them. I didn't qualify for the lsac fee waiver, but don't really have the money to be paying $100 an app either. I've received waivers basically everywhere else I've wanted to apply (except ysh). Worth soliciting a fee waiver, or do they not offer them? 171/3.95

Thanks!

165/3.43, and I got a fee waiver in early November. Just shoot their admissions department an email. Couldn't hurt.

Glad to see you're still waiting as well. I have a feeling we'll be hearing things at similar times.

Applied way back on October 5th. Went complete either 10/8 or 10/10 can't remember exactly. Then I got that email which everyone else received about my app being under review with a status update on 10/25 maybe? Then updates on 12/4 and 12/10. Don't know what that means.

I think it means you'll be getting a decision sooner than some of us others.

I'm a splitter. Above the GPA 75th but just shy of the LSAT 25th. And I'm an undergrad at BC right now with some pretty decent softs. I guess this is the week then for some of the first decisions.

Me too with a 3.3/168. Saving splitters for last, I guess.

Finally went under review. Not sure I could afford to attend if admitted, but I'd love that opportunity!

AM I really a splitter though? I mean my LSAT is above their median and my GPA isnt that far below their median. I feel like they may just be reviewing in batches.
