basically a scholarship form of the fake unc acceptance emails from last year...
Email is NOT that difficult to use.

don't even say it. that would be painful. here's to hoping that the UNC acceptance letter makes you forget all about their email troubles.

i got the fake 90k too. could be a good sign of things to come or just psychological torture in this already stressful process.

Just got a fake 90k scholarship offer from wake forest. A unc rejection would seal this as officially the worst day ever.

Unbelievable.

That really sucks, I'm so sorry to hear that. It sort of lessens the blow of my random WL from Wake, but this sounds exactly like when UNC accidentally accepted people last year. Sorry again that happened, I hope UNC accepts you soon!

I was thinking the exact same thing, in my head I am telling myself if the letter isn't here (CT) today then I must be safe...

I negotiate with myself daily like I am in a hostage situation. The hostage is my sanity.

Edit: typo

in-state or OOS?

I have similar numbers, haven't heard anything...but am in-state and hoping that helps.

As a one also from NJ I hope so!

I don't like these snail mail waitlist letters. I feel like I'm on death row waiting for my execution notice. (Okay, maybe that's a little overly dramatic but still true.) I'm going to be away from my mailbox for 12 days for Spring Break. I'm going to be constantly worried that something is in my mailbox.

[jerzgrl630]

The worst is that my parents will receive my decision if it comes via snail mail. I will ask them to open it and read it to me and that will just suck.

OOS and the letter made it to Texas...so I would assume those of you who haven't heard are probably safe for the moment...good luck!

thanks for letting us know and good luck to you as well.

My mailbox had nothing from UNC... Maybe Roy Williams is running admissions this cycle....

oh no! That would be the most stressful spring break ever.

I live about 20 miles from the law school and still no mail... I hate how they're letting notifications trickle out, you can never feel safe.

Although we are talking about a school that doesn't seem to like e-mail, the great technology of the 90s, I think we should realize that mail is no longer distributed by horse and buggy and therefore mileage from the school is somewhat obsolete (and although the above poster discussed this, my message is not aimed at any one person). We're all grasping at straws here, but if the decisions were mailed on 2/23, pretty much all of us should have heard by now. I hope that we've dodged a bullet, at least through round 1.

And of course, now that I said this, I'm sure my WL or reject will arrive today.

i would normally agree with you, but we've had a recent onsalught of blizzards and that has slowed down our mail considerably in recent weeks.

I don't know if they are doing rounds anymore as much as they are notifying a few people each day. My friend got a wl letter yesterday and she lives on campus at unc.

Rounds would be nice though...

Strange that all of the recent activity has been WL and reject....come on accepts! Any idea what your friend's scores look like? I assume she is a resident.

she's a resident and made her application VERY UNC specific. Her LSAT was a 163 and her gpa is around a 3.5 I think.

Well, I'm holding out hope but her scores are pretty close to mine.

Same; that said, the mail came.....and safe for at least one more day.

This made me laugh at myself a bit. PERSPECTIVE!
