It's okay to kick yourself. It's a sign of a conscientious, hard worker.PattyCake wrote:I'm not that concerned, already got into a few schools I'd be happy to attend, some with decent $.

Just gonna throw this out there - the UConn and Quinnipiac threads have the nicest, most supportive people on TLS. Don't know if CT attracts nicer people in general or what, but it definitely adds to the appeal of CT schools.abucking wrote:It's okay to kick yourself.

Re: UConn c/o 2017 Applicants
I live in West Hartford very close to the campus, have been to an open house and know a couple of current students and I have a very positive impression of the school. I've also chatted with several alums who speak highly of the school.

Awwww. That's sweet. Thanks! I also think that the "older" students are very supportive and helpful. I actually feel like I've made friends on the TLS forum! Hope I end up going to school with you guys. That would be great.

Hi all,
Local ct guy here. I submitted my apps last Sunday. Applied to a ton of schools in northeast.
In at wne, Drexel and northeastern already. Scholarships with all and hoping I can't convince nu to bump its offer up a little more if I receive some more interesting offers.
Good luck to all!

Did anyone get the email from the admissions office today about having lunch with the Dean in a few weeks?

Re: UConn c/o 2017 Applicants
Had that lunch last Friday. The dean is a cool, savvy guy.
In my case it was a group lunch (7 people); some were admitted students, some had applied. You could say it was a mutual information session where the dean demonstrated his sincere interest in us and did his best "I'm the most effective pimp UConn Law has ever had." He'll be good at tying your goals to the school's programs.
I'd recommend going.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
