hey Izzie, was your scholly information in your acceptance package?

[IzziesGal]

Yes, it was. It was in the acceptance letter. I'm signing off now to go home, but I'll check the boards later if you have any other Qs. You should definitely go to the next admitted students day...have you ever been to the campus?

I just got an email-- I was deferred. I'm an in-state resident, so to say the least, this was quite surprising. My guess is they saw the other schools I had written down on the application, although they were still very much a viable school for me...

Sorry to hear that! What do you mean deferred - they're holding you over for a later decision? What other schools did you list on your app?

Nothing too special... Pitt (meh chance), Tulane (lesser-meh chance), and Cincinnati (accepted). I didn't think it was that bad...

I'm really surprised. Congrats on your Cincinnati acceptance, though!

#'s? That is disconcerting.

157, 3.82. Low LSAT, I know, but still... although I don't want to take anything for granted, I still expect to get in later in the application cycle...

A 157 is not that low at all. I predict you'll be in later on. Have you tried emailing Dean Walton to express your interest in the school? Maybe even ask her if you can come visit, and when you're there, put in face time with the admissions staff. Don't ask why you were deferred...but rather, keep being persistent and showing your genuine interest.

Do you think it's alright to reply directly to her email with a LOCI? I figure I should probably follow up immediately so I can get my level of interest in ASAP.

I started emailing her about my interest before I even took the LSAT. I think it never hurts to get your name out there and be persistent. I think the sooner, the better...

Not at all. I really want to stay in the NYC area & St. John's has offered me a full ride. I am waiting on Brooklyn & tooooooo many reaches (hey, a girl can try!). Good luck everyone
