Haha, yeah. Pretty crazy all the stuff they send out. I was kind of disappointed that the restaurant/bar guide didn't have price and special information.

I got a call saying that my app is Under review... I think they just called to torture me. My status checker doesn't give any real info so I'm going NUTS!!! did anyone else get the "we're looking at you now" call?

I got one that asked me if I had any questions, didn't say anything about being under review. I got an acceptance call a week later.

that gives me some hope that you got accepted after the call, not that it has any bearing on my application at all, but you know I can hope that they only call people they are going to accept. I'm probably just crazy from all this application stuff. I keep having nightmares that I sent the wrong apps in and that I won't get accepted anywhere. I just want the first acceptance to come in then i can chill out. Please 'Bama, soon!

I applied on 11/11. How soon does Bama typically reply with checker?

I've found that their checker is pretty much useless. They will call you.

Got a call from Paige today. Said they have my file complete and if I had questions, I was welcome to call.

Just received the same message. Do you think they expect you to call back or is it more of an informational phone call?

Sounded purely informational until the end when she said she looked forward to talking to me. I'm not planning on calling unless I come up with some questions

Yay, eskimo!!!! Congrats on Bama, though you probably knew you would be fine. Where else did you decide to apply to?

Just got the call. Yay! Still need to figure out when to set up an interview. Congrats to those also in and interviewing! Mpeterson, how did yours go? is it a long event? Casual? Who do you meet with? I'm full of questions as I was too shocked to ask anything relevant while on the phone and I haven't received a package in the mail / email yet.

ZachOda · Post by **ZachOda** » Tue Nov 30, 2010 5:58 pm

Got the call! 22.5k a year, not too shabby. Who's planning on going to the accepted student's open house?

Congrats! That makes total tuition for 3 years like what, $17,000? (assuming out of state) Not bad!

It's a pretty safe bet that I'll be there, seeing as I live 5 min away from the law school and all.

Would love to hear any of this as well!

Just missed my call about "good news". She said she was on her way out but would send me an email. Hopefully it includes scholarship info!

Edited to add.....Full Scholly! She even called me "most outstanding". May be standard acceptance email jargon but it sure made me feel good lol. I'm ecstatic that I'll definitely be going to a football school next year lol....I've got some great choices thus far!

bergg007 · Post by **bergg007** » Tue Nov 30, 2010 7:35 pm

i don't think they are ever going to call me.

Congrats. Any mention of what you need to keep the scholarship? I've read on LSN that they can have some pretty strict requirements...like having to be top 1/3.

They called me on 11/10 saying my app was under review and I just got the acceptance call today. Be patient, your call is probably coming this week.

I got the call around the same time, but my GPA blows, I'm pretty sure they will hold on to me for a long time, and wait for my LOCI and then either WL me or admit with $0. History shows they'll take me but I don't expect the call any time soon, I'm just super impatient.
