And they don't want to be called Hogwarts, with their own room of requirement!
Seriously though, a school that lends sleds?


(Someone should write their 250 on a massive sledding accident or something next year)

Got a viewbook and a fee waiver in the mail today :shock: my LSAT is not competitive and I'm not a URM, so I don't get it. Do they recruit non-URM minorities or first gen college students?

Either way going to take this as a sign that I should get off my ass and submit, though. And maybe frame the bit with Asha's signature, haha.

I submitted on 1/2 and got a confirmation of receipt the next day, but still haven't gotten a complete email. Should I be worried/contact them? It seems like most people went complete pretty quickly earlier on, but I know this is a busy time of year...

Applying as a long-shot. Anyone willing to take a look at my most recent draft of a "risky" 250? If so, please PM

Hmm. I submitted pretty early, so this may not be very helpful, but I got the "complete" email 3 days after the "received" email, so 5+ weeks seems like a long time.

Maybe someone else who submitted in January can chime in on whether they got a complete email already?
I got it 8 days after.

To me everything would fall under extra curriculars
I put my study abroad semester there. I think it's probably fine to leave it blank if there's nothing else you can think of (disclaimer: I haven't actually submitted yet).

Rejected! At least it's a decision (and expected at that...)

At least I dont have to spend another moment wondering what could have been.

Wow, sorry to hear the tough news, all. Thanks for reporting.

Last year the first major ding wave wasn't until 2/25 per LSN, so looks like they may be moving quicker than year than last year.

Anxiously checking my email... When did you all apply/go complete?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
