Top Law Schools

I got in a while ago, anyone else?

When is scholly info coming out?

Also, the only other thread I saw for USC was last years one. So I figured I would start a new thread for this years class!

How did you hear?

They sent me a letter in the mail

has anyone applied to this school?!

Still waiting...

How high up is USC for you?

it depends on the scholly offer and how strong it is

hmmmm when i talked to them in december, they said the wouldn't start reviewing applications until the middle of this month. guess the rest of us will just have to wait...

be happy to answer any basic Q's about the city.

I heard that Columbia is a college town (the parts around campus anyway). What did you think of the area where the school is located?

I'll throw my $.02 in as well. Got accepted to USC Law in December - waiting to hear about $$. I'm a USC Alum (graduated last May) and have lived here for 22 years so I'd be happy to answer any questions about the area etc....

ACCEPTED!

Snail mail today

Letter says I'm in consideration for scholly w/decision in March! Not sure though if that's on all acceptance letters.

currently attending USC for MPA and did undergrad here (just can't leave this place)

I called last week and the adcom said scholarship info could be sent out anytime between now and April (not helpful)

let me know if anyone has questions about the area

also let me know if hear about scholarship money..

rec'd a new email from the adcomm; "scholarship offers are typically made in early March"

There's a part on the application that asks for a (separate) attachment for your academic scholarships, your employment, your extracurriculars, etc. and then they ask for a resume. Is all this necessary?

did seem weird. i just split up my resume into separate attachments

Not yet, since they haven;t come out with scholly offers yet.

Maybe someone from a previous cycle could answer more.

I applied to South Carolina and I just sent my resume as all those things were present on it. Seemed like overkill to send them in separate attachments and then send the resume which had, basically, the same exact "stuff" on it.

look at lawschoolnumbers.com

maybe 161/3.2 and higher? maybe slightly lower..

Got a nice little white envelope with an acceptance letter enclosed today!
I got the same notification of consideration for scholarship as posted above. The plot thickens...

columbia's not just a college town. with the new mcnair building across from the capitol, the vista for us older folk, and five points for the younger, columbia is for everyone. though not as big as your typical capital city, columbia has a lot to offer

Wow! One page!

I applied to UScarolina in October, and still no response. My numbers are well above median. If you have heard from USC, when did you go ccomplete, etc?

just don't call it USC

For bars, yea. That's about all you'll find in Five Points--well, there are some shops, but that doesn't really count for a nightlife. I admit I don't get out into the Vista much, but from what I've seen/heard I'm not missing much else. I'm probably not the best person to take advice from about Columbia, though. I hate this city and can't wait to get out.

@grobbelski I will point out we've been around longer than that other USC, though.
