They may dip to 3.4, especially for your LSAT - but below that is as likely as cats joining a swim team.krispykitten wrote:Yeah. I'm on the ok side of the LSAT line, but the 'you're f'd' side of the gpa line. Ugh.

I got BU post-its, a campus map, preview day information, the alumni magazine... That packet was STUFFED TO THE BRIM with BU paraphernalia!jay115 wrote:what? i didnt get any post-it notes, just a generic "great fit for BU" message =( haha, im glad im in regardless. has anyone been on the accepted students site yet and is there anything of interest beyond what can be found on the general school website?danidancer wrote:Same. The post-it notes are a cute touch.dakatz wrote:I got my acceptance packet today, but no mention of scholarship offer. Nice handwritten note though from someone in admissions mentioning a part of my PS.
