Yeah, you're right. The calculus is straightforward...

I am just succumbing to foolish prestige whoring. When I was 18, I didn't give a shit about anything and applied to 1 school, the big state university. Now I'm stuck on the east coast and no one gives a shit about my school or that I see the light now.

I guess I'll accept being happy with Brooklyn, do what I can, and then think about floating a transfer app at Fordham/NYU/CLS to see what happens.

I just can not afford shitty 1L grades.

You have the same completion date as I did. Did you apply just FT? The status checker worked before I got the email.
I only applied FT...

I don't know that it's bad news, and unfortunately, you'll have to wait a few days with Passover.
Awesome.


Also, Easter.

The acceptance email I got this afternoon said they were going to be closed until Tuesday, so I wouldn't receive my login info email until Tuesday.
The acceptance email I received today said the same thing but about an hour later I received an email with my login info.

It's a Jesuit school - TITCR. Tomorrow is Holy Thursday, then Good Friday, etc. Passover is just coincidental.

It's New York City. Passover is never coincidental. Passover was specifically mentioned in the email sent to me.

oh, my percentages were for the cities as a whole. I think schools have to have larger percentages than that. at my undergrad they told everyone it was 27% to not scare away the christian kids, lol. we all knew it was really like 40%.

I don't know about the Law School, but WUSTL's undergrad is pretty Jewish. So I don't think it's much of a problem (although maybe not as high of a percentage as Fordham's; it is the NYC).

Anyway, if they're still reviewing Jan/early Feb files I'll probably get my rejection in June at this rate :lol: (although I suppose I could add it to my growing list of WL's and at this point I don't even know if Fordham is worth 210k).
