Don't get too excited. Last year all we got was a physical copy of the admissions letter. Wustl likes to be eco friendly or something.

Could someone Who has done the interview PM with details please!? I have my interview this week. I opted to go in person as sheernumbers alone my reverse splitter self will be wait listed at best. But I have some great sorts, a ton of public service for urban children of Missouri, and fantastic recommendations. They will probably defer untily December lsat comes on but I've seen people with my numbers lsat included who have been accepted.

Does everyone get interviewed or is this a good sign that they offered me am interview within 24 hours of submitting?

Wustl is my top choice so I'm kind of freakkng out here. I want this school bad.
Thanks in advance

I do think it's a good sign they requested an interview so quick. I believe there are others in this thread who have submitted and not heard anything.

It's a good sign. They don't waste time interviewing people they aren't considering. My interview was last cycle but the OP pretty much covers it. Still, feel free to PM scotti or myself if there are any specific questions you have that you don't want to post here. I always pull for people who really want to come here, cause that was me a year ago. Good luck!

Damn I received the interview request the day I submitted my application but I thought it was not mandatory and that I did not have to take the interview. But it seems that we'll get better chance of being admitted if we actually do the interview. Ugh.. I'm scheduling right now...

The interview is pretty straightforward. Be able to answer the following:

1) Why WUSTL?
2) Have you ever been to St. Louis? Did you like it?
3) Why do you want to study law?
4) You might be asked to expand on something you discussed in your personal statement.

It's pretty low key. Will Fruhwirth interviewed me. It was low stress. It felt more like a conversation than a formal interview. Best of luck! Let us know how it goes!

I have my interview tomorrow. This may be a dumb question, but they will call me, right? Or do I call admissions?

If you haven't even received a confirmation of receipt/a status checker email, I'd check with LSAC. You should have gotten that by now.

Just had my interview and I think it went well! He brought up switching my application to ED and I'm really considering it. I was going to apply ED originally but TLS talked me out of it, but I've been on/off regretting it ever since.

Scotti and other current students, is there any reason why I shouldn't ED? I want to stay in the Midwest, preferably Minnesota or Illinois. I get the whole "you might get in somewhere better", but even if I do, I don't want to pay sticker and graduate with $200k debt (+ my $40 from undergrad).

Opinions greatly appreciated. If this should go to another thread please let me know.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
