Fordham Waiting Room Forum

[sibley]

Hey guys- lurker here. Just thought I should share that I got hit with the waitlist this morning. 3.0/171

The world is upside down, but you're in really excellent company (speaking for the above with the rocking stats, not so much for myself)

... and I really do love jews, so maybe Cardozo is the better choice anyway. I'm not highly religious (though I'm converting to Judaism) ...

I just wanted to say that current Fordham students have been known to call Fordham a "Jewsuit school."

lol, my undergrad is known as 'jew of r'
I did see a whole lot of jewish students when I visited Fordham last weekend. but I like the yeshiva tie also.

Does anyone have an idea how much of a death sentence this WL is? It seems like they're throwing everyone and their mother on this thing, I just wonder if we're going to be left to rot or if they actually plan on pulling several people off of it. Any information at all would be GREATLY appreciated :[

Lol, I don't usually hear people say things like "I really do love Jews". Yeah, my buddy goes to NYU, and never ceases to call it NY Jew.

thanks! i would really love to go, but i'm not sure i want to work in a big firm and resent the idea of a lot of debt forcing me that direction.

meh. sorry. and wtf.

NEW CONSPIRACY THEORY: someone accidentally hit the WL for these batches instead of the in.

[labourer]

another question for anyone who plans on working while doing the evening classes:

how many hours do you plan on working?

Absolutely. Seems like a HUGE number of seemingly auto-admits are getting WL. Doesn't make sense. The great in/WL button conspiracy!!

[Helpasus]

Has anyone gotten in off the WL yet? Are they trying to force people to write LOCI's this year to confirm they actually want to attend?

[bryntax]

does anyone ever go from "application complete" to a decision without going UR?

just want to know if i should be holding my breath or not yet.

[MSRP]

I have a question that I think someone here may be able to answer. It appears from my trolling that current Fordham part time students post here. I was just wondering how many of your current peers have doctorate degrees in the life sciences. I ask because from my networking it it is clear that this group has been applying to law school at high rates since the 80's. All the other hard sciences are in much higher demand.

Thanks

OK, here's what we've got: the Rand Corporation, in conjunction with the saucer people, under the supervision of the reverse vampires, are forcing our parents to go to bed early in a fiendish plot to eliminate the meal of dinner. We're through the looking glass, here, people...

Crap. Maybe if I'd gone to see alice in wonderland by fordham none of this would have happened. I'm sorry =(

There is no "Under Review" period. It goes from Complete to Decision.
