WUSTL Class of 2019 Applicants Forum

[yenisey]

Ughh I feel like my interview went really poorly... Is it bad if there was no allusion to admittance and just a more info follow up instead? I'm trying to tell myself I'm being too hard on myself but I'm freaking out a little >________>

I felt like my interview went uncomfortably too, and there was an explicit reference in mine not to expect a decision right away, but I got in ~10 days later. Don't give up!

My guy mentioned my very poor GPA might be a factor in holding up my app review. I was in the next day and a full ride a week later.

Very poor GPA and full ride? Oh, your LSAT score must be stupendous.

FWIW I got a WashULaw shirt in the mail with a handwritten note from their diversity liason/director/person. I'm URM. The shirt is low quality, but you all should ask for one if interested.




Go WUSTL.

[blueberryoatmeal]

oh ya I also got my shirt! before the holidays actually. i was admitted in early november I think and wustl is definitely a high contender for me, but i still haven't heard about financial aid...i have a 167 so i'm convinced i'll never hear.

Lol I really like the shirts actually. 1L here, I'll try to answer questions when you guys are trying to decide which school you want to go to.

How did you all get the shirts? Is there someone that we need to ask specifically or just email the admissions alias?

Admitted in early October.

[mornincounselor]

Best not to mention the Rams in any future interviews either now.

not sure but their descriptions are hilarious

"Make your case for campus style in this crewneck 'School of Law' sweatshirt. To be brief, this pull-on sweatshirt has all the qualities you look for in a winning look. Find your appeal with the school name and the 'School of Law' headline screen-printed on the front of the sweatshirt. Case closed."

and

"Make your case for a great look in this campus 'School of Law' t-shirt. To be brief, this School of Law t-shirt combines comfortable fabric with judicial style to create a look worthy of acquittal. Short sleeve t-shirt has appeal with the school name and the 'School of Law' headline screen-printed on the front."

I want to do employment/labor law and expressed my love of sports during my interview. The interviewer actually said "Well we have 3 professional sports teams to intern with...probably 2 soon." I nervously laughed my way to a change of subject.

Checking in - has anybody who applied in December heard back?

What about Penn State Dickinson $40K/yr vs Loyola Chicago $26K vs Iowa $0?

None are good options but if you are going to do one of those, penn st. The other two are basically indefensible.

In today 2 days after interview even though the interviewer said it would probably take a week. Also status checker never changed. GL everyone!

I received an email today which tells me that I can apply for Olin fellowship and two other scholarships. Maybe this means I'm not getting the Scholar in Law Award?

I got the acceptance letter via email on 28 December but haven't heard anything about scholarship so far. Is that a bad sign that I not gonna get any $?

I was wondering the same. I got in via email on Dec. 31. Still haven't heard anything about $... At this point I'm just hoping the admission packet in the mail will have good news.

The shirts are nice, though I still don't have the regular one. They were out in my size, and admissions said they'd get me one when they could but I think it slipped through the cracks.

I did grab the Xmas one that CSO was giving out though, with the reddish WashULaw. I like it.

I got the same e-mail and I received a scholarship offer a few months ago. Don't worry about it!

Had an interview yesterday. Went well. Invite to tour area and school with travel stipend offer. Excited to hear back.

I interviewed between Christmas and New Years. Other than a follow-up email exchange, I haven't heard anything yet, and my status checker still says 'under review' with my interview date on it.

Seems like something has gone wrong, since most people are hearing back within a week of their interview. Should I do anything? Contact admissions? Or just keep waiting?

For those of you who are waiting on a scholarship letter (as in, your numbers make you a lock for scholly), email and ask for it. I was in late Dec, and I emailed in March asking about scholly. Turns out they failed to send the letter, which was dated early Jan.

Don't do this. It is not March. It is still early January.
