A nude visit may serve you better.
My girlfriend did tell me it was ok for me to sleep with an Admissions Officer if it boosted my chances lol.

3.65 /173 here... given the applicant data from this cycle, would an (late) application be worth the $$?

Not sure if it matters much, but my GPA is from STEM double major (molecular bio and philosophy), and I went to a t14 for undergrad. Also have ~2 years of light public interest work experience


Your thoughts very much appreciated. Thank you

If I were you, I'd go for it. Can't speak anything to your chances, but, your score is good and to me, knowing one way or the other is worth the fee instead of wondering what could have been.

+1, plus Stanford is just such a black box anyway, you might as well just go for it.

$130 for the non-negligible chance of getting into Stanny? Go for it.

+1. Assuming rejected since there was no phone call. Makes it worse that they only seem to do snail mail, no email for it.

3.45/175/pretty solid softs. Called the office and was in fact rejected. Always knew it was a long shot, but still disappointing cuz this really was my dream school since i was a youngster. Better luck to all you guys still waiting.

When did you apply? Did not realize that rejections were going out already. Sorry for the news though, I'm sure you will wind up at a great school nontheless.

Sorry to hear that badlefthook. Especially disheartening with that LSAT score too. :\ You'll still find your way to a great school though. I expect to be in the same shoes, Stanford is a huge reach for me!

Congrats to dinan though. Gotta be an amazing feeling.
