On another note, any other UR 1/21 people here? It was my first UR date. If I'm lucky like gotti and jadkins maybe I'll hear back early February, but those seem like anomalies.
yeah I think it was my first UR date

Cool beans. Thanks guys. Just want to get accepted somewhere so I can stop the frantic job search.

Can't answer your second Q, but I read earlier that one letter is some nice congrats letter and one is just some generic info, so 3 total. I think the breakdown will come regardless to show you how much it's gonna cost...
Haha k. I figured it was just wishful thinking but I thought I'd ask.

Hey there! Congrats! I notice we are numbers twins. If it's not too personal, do you know yet if UMN is giving you any $$?

I'm trying to make sense of the process. They like LSATs near their 75, but not high gpas? I'd think most schools would eat up high gpas if the LSAT is anywhere near their median but what do I know. I understand YP, just, man.

I'm pretty sure that 1/7 was my only review date.

Hi numbers twin!

I don't know about $$ yet, but as soon as I get my admit packet I'll post whether or not I got any.

Waitlist email today with a 161/3.61. I'm shocked. Thought I was an auto-ding. Flattered, though

JenDarby · Post by **JenDarby** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 4:22 pm

In!

I am exhausted, and don't feel well, and couldn't bring myself to answer, knowing how unenthusiastic I would sound.

All the same, yay!

Haha UM rubbed it in a bit more with a second rejection email this morning...

This gives me a glimmer of hope. Albeit, probably false hope haha

Waitlisted. And here I thought URM was auto-admit!

60k scholarship came with the admit package today. Any idea if they will match/beat 90k from Illinois?

purplebulldogs · Post by **purplebulldogs** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 4:49 pm

in via voicemail just a few minutes ago!

168, 3.73

forward · Post by **forward** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 5:14 pm

So, I had withdrawn, but I got a call from Nick Wallace on Friday. Somehow, my app still got in his pile and I got admitted with a full tuition schollie. I was expecting a ding (YP) given how long my app seemed to languish, but at any rate, I'm in.

In-state tuition (reciprocity).

Good luck all!

I've seen this twice now (but the first was a potential flame). Is the consensus that most people AREN'T notified of scholarship amounts over the phone even if they did get one? None was mentioned, but mine was a voicemail.

Well, my call was a bit weird - voicemail with no reference, but I called back because I had withdrawn and explained why. So, I withdrew the withdrawal and also asked about it while I had him on the phone.

Just got a phone call. In 167/3.25 but no scholarship information just yet...I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

Applied/Complete 12/23

morganonthecoast · Post by **morganonthecoast** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 6:30 pm

Got the call this afternoon. In with 167/3.6, last IR 1/21

sunyoo25 · Post by **sunyoo25** » Wed Jan 26, 2011 8:40 pm

In today via email about 5 hours ago!
International applicant so no phonecall.

169/ 3.6-ish (international, no LSCAS GPA).
Application complete 12/14, IR 12/23 and 1/21 (didn't check too often so maybe more often than that).
Looking forward to the "real" admission materials!

Edit: It still says IR 1/21 in my status checker.
