Got the packet over here in Northern CA today. No $$, which is sad, but there's a letter explaining that they'll probably be able to give more out when April rolls around due to withdrawals and such.

Nice packet though.

When were you able to log in on Admitted Site?

The 20th.

Just an fyi...L&C is notorious for giving out too much money early in the cycle and then sending out "Oops! We ran out" e-mails to later, more impressive applicants.

I know this because I've stalked L&C threads for about 3 years now.

Haha, I figured as much. I wouldn't say I'm a totally impressive candidate though.

First complete 12/6 > second complete 1/28... Can't log into the admitted students page so I'm assuming I've been denied.

I got $17k/year with pretty similar numbers to yours so there's definitely still some hope

I don't know, I was thinking a new Complete date would mean you were actually UR. But maybe I'm just telling myself that because my Complete date's never changed, and I can't get into the site.

I couldn't log in until like 3 days after my second complete, and they didn't mail my package until about a week after my second complete, so I wouldn't really fret about this.

Got packet today with $10k award ... and so tuition last year was $35,048. How do I get the other 25k ... do I also qualify for need-based awards/grants? I'm not talking about Federal loans.

New complete date today!!11!

Had my third date change today, so tried to log-in into the admitted students site. I was able to log-in. This means I'm accepted, right?? Any idea how long until the packet arrives?

I live in the Portland area and got mine the first day I could log in. It appears that they mail them the same day they give you access to the site, so just estimate how long USPS takes to transport a letter from Portland to wherever you are!

Got e-mail today that said initial review of my app is complete but a decision could not be reached at this time. They will have a better idea of admissions situation in late April-early May, and give me a second review and possibly send me onto the waitlist at that time if I'm not accepted then.

Short story: I'm on the waitlist for the waitlist. Thanks but no thanks L and C. I will not be moving back to Portland. At least my picture is getting clearer while the wl e-mails are getting more cryptic.

But even so, the Jefferson thing that guy spoke of is WAY outside the level of conservative you find in the normal population in the rest of the state. Way.

There's nothing right- or left-wing about the Jefferson ethos, it's rural and anti-establishment. It's as much pot-growing hippie commune as gun collecting American Legion member in a lifted 4x4. To me, it's also a culture that's more interesting and permanent than literally identical city people with full sleeve tattoos and beards and armfuls of ironic babies in Portland or San Francisco.

I applied to L&C last cycle. That sounds like the same message that they sent me; "Waitlist for the waitlist," etc. I never ended up getting in. (And now, I'm glad that I didn't, but that's a story for another thread.)

Was able to log into the Admitted Students site! I guess this means I'm in. First acceptance at a top 100 school

[Kinderby]

My date changed to 1/28, but I still can't get in. If I don't get in here, I'll cry.

Thanks I'm very excited about the environmental law program here - and the location is to die for!

Thanks?

edit: I appreciate the ad-hominem, but the main point of my post is that your beef with city people is interesting. I wouldn't call myself a city-person (maybe a townsperson 'cuz of Oakland, right?), but the hip demographic in SF or Portland isn't that overwhelming. You can avoid the Mission if you really need to. I did. Hell, downtown SF is filled with go-getter software engineers/finance folk who would never even think about going near Zeitgeist.
