Accepted today, looking forward to scholarship package.

same here, went complete early January with a couple date changes, most recent was March 6/7 I think?

[lawsohard93]

Accepted via e-mail. Went complete 1/20 and had two status changes 3/16 and 3/18.

[Anonnonnon]

I'm in via email! Went complete first on 1/14, didn't hear anything till 3/8 with the first status change and 3/16 with the second status change. I hope to hear about merit based financial aid tomorrow. Im near the high end of their accepted students LSAT and GPA wise for context

Update: Scholarship info - 45k contingent on good academic standing

[mncrimlaw]

Accepted via email. Have not seen scholarship info (possible that there may not be one). Went complete 1/18, not sure if attending.

[Mothetgoo]

Hey guys, I'm new to this thread and I just wanted to know what are my chances are of being accepted in Fordham's Evening Division? My scores are below their median 3.3 GPA 152 LSAT. I graduated early from college, I am first generation college and graduate school, single parent household, AA female, I interned at a law firm for 2 years, and I participated in a lot of extracurriculars. Will my softs do anything for my chances? My application is at "Complete" and I am just impatiently waiting tbh as Fordham is the only law school I want to go to lol. Honest answers please, I am good with constructive criticism.

[Purplepen]

Just accepted via automated email, will most likely withdraw, complete 1/15 with a date change 3/16 and 3/22.

[tonightdough]

In via email: complete 2/3 date changes 3/18 and 3/22

So there are two people on MyLSN with roughly your stats/who have URM status, and both were waitlisted to the part-time program. Being URM is a large boost, and being a first generation college/graduate student is probably something of a boost too. Otherwise, interning at a law firm and college extracurriculars aren't going to make much of a difference; lots of applicants will have the same things on their resumes. Tbh, even if you end up getting into Fordham (which it's a toss-up), it's going to be enormously expensive (crazy high tuition + NYC COL) and really not worth it given the employment stats. If you go to the What are my chances thread with the same question everyone is gonna tell you to sit out and re-take for better options, which is probably the way to go here

How soon after your admission email do you generally receive scholarship information?

[Smallville]

seems like most people got it the day after

[greenapples]

I had my status check changed to 3/29 but still havent heard back since submitting in January.

stats are above 75 for both so it's making me wonder....

I'm in the same boat. I think Fordham just takes a long time to get back to applicants. I doubt it's any kind of yield protect. If it progress like everyone else we should hear back in the next 10 days or so!

[girlgoestolawschool]

Does anyone know if there is a facebook group for admitted students?
