Northeastern c/o 2015 applicants Forum

I'm hoping to hear back from them EA by mid-December (though they say mid-January...sigh). If its an admit at sticker, I'll more than likely apply. I don't have the best case, but they say on the site they're willing to accept any volunteer/PI stuff going back to high school, so that'll certainly help my case.

I applied EA, too...I'm hoping I'll have a decision before January, though. Northeastern is my first choice, so the wait is killing me. Also, that's good that they'll accept volunteer work from that far back...I did a lot of volunteering in high school, so that's good to know. ^^

Just sent in my EA this morning. Went complete at 8 AM. How long did it take for everyone to get confirmation emails?

Do you mean confirmation emails for a complete file? If I remember correctly, I sent my EA app in during late September, went complete in mid October, and received a confirmation email the same day (as my file went complete). There's been no movement since. =/

Same. Went there Monday and wandered through students in a finals haze. I liked it My second rec went through today so hopefully I'll go complete soon.

Just went complete today. Anyone know when they usually send out decisions for EA?

No idea, sadly. I applied EA and I've been complete since October 13-ish.

Sidenote: my status checker says that I'm paid $0 of the $75 app fee. I'm mildly concerned, but I figured I would check here and see if anybody else had the same thing before I frantically called the admissions office.

For what its worth mine says that I am paid in full for the 75.00. You might want to check on that...

Yeah, I think I'll shoot them an email. I definitely paid it, and I have proof of payment (I think, I'll have to search for the paperwork), so...hopefully this won't be a big damn deal. I would hate to be screwed over by such a stupid fluke. Thanks for your input. C:

In case anybody else had the issue of the status checker saying that I had not paid the app fee--I emailed Admissions and they told me that my files showed that I had paid the fee, and to ignore that part of the status checker.

I think I'm going to throw in an application. I received a fee waiver, but am waiting until I get paid to pay the LSAC charge. I have a 158/3.42(will be at least 3.5 by December) and am retaking in December. I also received an email about the Social Justice scholarship, but I haven't volunteered. I am really active in student groups though.

No offense to you and your numbers (mine are almost identical), but how did you manage to get a fee waiver?

Need based. If I didn't get unsolicited fee waivers, I emailed the schools, who either sent me one *without mentioning my stats* or an application for a need based one. I haven't been turned down for a need based one. I haven't paid an application fee yet. which is great because I'm broke. I didn't apply for an LSAC fee waiver, because I didn't know about it until after I paid for everything.

Good luck, any statss?

Thanks. I taking it tomorrow (can't wait for it to be done), and hopefully can grab 3-5 more points. I think I'd love Boston, and there's no way I'm getting into Harvard, BC, or BU with my stats.

Thanks! I hope so. My lowest PT is a 161, which is an improvement I'd be happy with. I don't think I'll be as nervous. Just need to get a few more questions right. My LG has gotten a lot better since I took the LSAT in October, went from -5-7 to -1-3. Good luck to everyone applying and retaking tomorrow!

For anyone admitted, I'd love to see your stats, even if you PM me!
