Do they send out everyone a financial package letter, or just those receiving scholarships?
I'm going to visit the school this Friday and that's one of the things I need to talk to them about. Unfortunately, St. Mary's is pretty expensive.

Naw, I didnt. I only applied to St. Marys, reason being that my wife is going to stay active duty Air Force while I get out and go to LS. I dont want to be apart from her and my 2 kids. We are both stationed in San Antonio right now.

Mine took two days. I live in Austin. I withdrew a week ago, so hopefully you got my spot.
Good Luck to everyone still waiting!

I withdrew last week. Had a $30K scholly but had to stay in top 10%. No thanks. Got nearly the same from South Texas with the stipulation to stay in top 25%. Much more realistic. Maybe one of you will get the money I turned down or my spot. Good luck!

I don't know why you would be waitlisted. I got my acceptance letter last week and i'm only at a 2.16GPA/158LSAT. But that was the only app I sent off because I decided to wait until next year to go to law school. I need to take the LSAT again and actually study this time lol.

What's the hold up with St. Mary's? I've been at complete since 3/17.
I'm still waiting on Texas Tech, too. haha is this indicative of the state as a whole?
(LOL, no)

Anybody gotten off the waitlist at St. Mary's yet? I figured after the second seat deposit some spots would open up.
