In at Santa Clara!! Forum

[taytay]

I just went complete a couple days ago. What do you guys make of Santa Clara's employment statistics?? Their average salary data seems pretty good considering their rank. I don't trust most school's employment data but they seemed to be fairly straightforward...I think their data was from 2007 but I can't remember

I could care less about corporate or biglaw, so salary statistics mean nothing to me.

That said, if you're looking for the big salary jobs coming out of SCU, you're going to have to love working in the Bay Area.

LOL I think all the admits get em, I know someone else did and others probably dont care enough to post hehe

Like most (e.g. all) law schools, Santa Clara only reports data from people who return the surveys. Thus, people who are making 160k out of law school are much more likely to report than somebody who's unemployed or working for 40k on year. So take employment numbers with a grain of salt.

% unemployed can be similarly manipulated, since you have no idea how many people are "self-employed" or doing non-legal jobs.

I didn't get any money clip or anything even though I was admitted

Assuming the 46% or something I can't remember who did not report for Santa Clara didn't get a big-firm job, there were only around 15% employed in big firms that year.

I'm still waiting for my money clip, too. ... But, isn't a pretty weird gift?

"Welcome to law school. Here's a money clip. You won't be needing it anytime soon."

yeah it seems like it's more appropriate for business school or something. but... guys love money clips. any girls gotten one yet? or is it just the boys?

[valley splitter]

the thing is it's not really a money clip but rather a gold fancy paper clip. money clips have a distinct shape. I guess it coud be used that way but it is definitely not designed for that purpose

Well... if they'd send me one, already, I could tell you exactly what it is. I'm good like that. Using my eyes and all.

I was deferred from early action to regular admissions and just checked my status. It says "In 2nd Review, 1/5/2010." ahhh hope it works out...since last time, I have added two great LORs (I went complete last time w/ no LORs since they are not required) and an increased GPA from my fall grades. Hope the new additions helped!

good luck

I have been "in committee" since 12/3........quite the committee.

I've been in committee since 9/28. I think the whole school has reviewed at my application by now

Damn, it can't be because of your GPA. Is Santa Clara known as a school that yield protects much?

[savesthedayajb]

In Committe status moved from 1/7 -> 1/11

[moviechicka]

Santa Clara is actually my first choice because of the IP program. I'm growing a little anxious. I've been in committee for a while.

My LSAT score sucks. And I'm old -- I'm not sure all schools look at that as a positive.

[sibley]

I've been in committee since November and that was with my 158/3.34. Maybe they'll finally act on me now that I have my new score...

[No1ustad]

sad. I got an admit in Dec and no money clip...

[msbeautifulbasham]

So, my status says that I am in committee. I was looking at the status checker, and I noticed that in the "Fees" box it says 1st and 2nd Seat Deposits. For others who have applied, does your box say that too? I'm wondering if that means I have been admitted or if it just happens to say that...

Mine has the same thing and it has been there since November. I think if you are accepted an actual amount appears in the box.
