Ugh, I think you missed the point, too. Look, everything I have posted here is to try help people like you out. Gyms, financial aid questions, etc. I could care less whether or not you like the way I write, but if you are going to be lawyer get used to having people point out when you're wrong about something or when your analysis is flawed. Or you can lighten up a little. New York might be hard on you if you are getting this worked up already.

...couldn't care less.

Fordham sent me an email requesting I elaborate on a specific C&F issue I addressed in my app. I was WL with a 168/3.6 so this leads me to believe they are genuinely interested in me, if they would take they time to type out specific, detailed questions.....

help I'm slow C&F issue, define pls...

Tagging TT for the lulz.

[patallica22]

withdrew today, unless Cornell (doubtful) or Columbia (very doubtful) come through, it looks like I'll be leaving NY....

15K per year back in there, hope a waitlisted person gets in.

Wait, are you going to NYU? GTFO.

True. Most people don't know that NYU is a school of NYLS. That's why I turned down both to go to Fordham, which is just the midtown satellite of CLS.

This is exactly why I tagged TT for the lulz.

Does anyone know if Fordham has any restrictions on working while a full-time 1L?

FT or PT, I can't rememebr? I just heard back from my other option about $ and its still kind of a long shot unless I can negotiate with them for a little more.

[adevotchka]

Speaking of money, now that I have my financial aid package I'm trying to budget. My q: how many of you (especially if you already live in NYC) are going to try to spend way less than Fordham's recommended COA figures? It seems like the figures they provide for housing, misc, board, and travel are all generous (not insane, but definitely not pauper-esque).

Also, I heard whispers that if you have unused loan funds at the end of the semester/year, you can kind of just remit it as if you never took it out in the first place. Does that sound right (it sounds too good to be true IMO) But if it is true, I wonder how many people take out extra as a cushion in the unfortunate case they don't land a paying summer gig?
