I'm waiting to hear from Albany too. Application is complete but not in review stage yet. Mind if I ask LSAT/ GPA? Good luck :)

Thanks. I'm 150 too. GPA is 3.9. I hope it isn't too much longer before hearing something. Is Albany your top pick?

My status checker just changed to in review today. They said it could take anywhere from 2-4 weeks to get a decision, but to call if it takes longer than 4.

Status changed today too. I am now before admissions committee.. Only two -four weeks away from a decision now haha.

Anybody in here apply to other New York law schools? I just found out I was accepted at Pace, but not sure how to feel about the school. Any thoughts?

I got in at Pace for spring but decided not to attend. I was very impressed with the school...had an interview and saw a bit of the campus. Don't quite united stand why its a Tier 4...it seems it should be in the 3rd Tier. Are you giving serious consideration to attending?

Well it isn't my top pick, but I would go there if it's my only option. I'm still waiting to hear from four more schools. Still holding out for Syracuse and Drexel, but I have a feeling my chances are slim.

I was "before admissions committee" as of January 4th and just got accepted via status checker yesterday...still no e-mail, weird but a letter is on the way I assume. For all those still waiting, a long wait doesn't always mean a waitlist!

I've withdrawn from all but 4 schools and leaning towards Albany (btw if you negotiate a scholarship you might be surprised :). Also their tuition increase seemed much more reasonable than a few others I'm considering.

My brother withdrew his acceptance and $20k scholarship to this "school." It will free up some money. Good luck all.

file has been complete for quite some time now, and recently went "under review."

in other news, in @ Rutgers-Camden with $5,000 ... so it's unlikely I'll be attending Albany, unless they throw big $$$ at me :twisted:

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
