I've requested two fee waivers by email and gotten them both. I got a fee waiver to UT automatically because I'm in-state. Just a tip: sometimes it's less imposing if you ask to ask instead of just asking (I've found this works with scholarship negotiations too). So instead of saying, "Could I have a fee waiver?" you might say, "My budget is really tight right now, and I would really like to apply as soon as possible. Would it be alright if I requested a fee waiver?"

Well I hope you end up attending. Texas is an easy choice for me because I live less than 20 miles from the School of Law, but the most attractive things about UT Law is the collegiate atmosphere and the professors.From what I hear, it's more laid-back than even a lot of lower-ranked schools--but still more than sufficiently rigorous. And Austin is an outstanding place to live.

So that was an emotional roller coaster. Have a good New Years, y'all!
You wouldnt be heading to the Sugar Bowl, would you ? If so, Im hoping its to root on the POKES!!

GO POKES! haha Happy new years everyone!
Haha I was not, but I saw about five hundred OK State folks headed that way on I-10.

So wait....a Dutchman who likes Oklahoma State but is applying to UT Law.
On a scale of 1-10, how obsessed are you with the color orange?

hahaha My love for orange is immeasurable. I have on an orange shirt right now. Oklahoma State was where I did my UG. So I'm very fond of the color.

Burnt is not a favorite hue of mine, but I think I could learn to like it :D

Checking in. Submitted today with my December score. It's less than I'm comfortable with so I have my fingers crossed since UT is my top choice. Hook 'em.

I have submitted finally as well, I don't particularly like my chances but UT is by far my number one choice, really hoping to at least get a "Why Texas?" request.


Those who have been accepted mind sharing numbers? Feel free to PM if that is better for you!

Just got an email to join the C/O 2019 Facebook group, but I haven't gotten an acceptance call/email, and my status checker hasn't updated since October. Anyone else receive the email about Facebook without an acceptance?

Denied this morning. I cannot say I am too surprised though. Already have a few good options that I probably would have taken over UT anyway, but still loved Austin when I was stationed in Texas. Congrats to all of you who got in and will be attending.

Hi all, new to the site and found this page. Applied to UT on November 17th and still waiting to hear. It's in my top 2 so I'm hoping for good news!

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

This exact thing happened to me a while ago. I got the email about joining the Facebook group without a call or an email. A few days later I got an email about being accepted
