I actually didn't bother because somewhere on their website they explicitly say that they don't offer fee waivers for OOS applicants. (I did successfully ask for a fee waiver from every other school I applied to.) Still, can't hurt to ask!

I got one OOS.

And here I stand, down $70

Great lesson on how it can't hurt to ask!

I think they advertise their financial waiver, but you have to submit a paper application.

I no longer need to be OP of this thread seeing as I was not accepted so if someone else wants to take over, i'm not sure of the process on how to do that, but I have no desire to update the OP.

Yeah, but eventually someone might want to add some more links. I'm just saying if anyone eventually wants to edit OP, they are more than welcome to take over.

You are not alone. My deadline was the 15th, but somehow I got confused and submitted a half-baked essay on the 8th.
No call, email, or status change since.
