Top Law Schools

I figured I'd set up this post for those are are considering or attending for Chapman's class of 2013.

Yay for Chapman! I am a big fan of Chapman Law, although I am not going there next year My dad teaches part-time and my brother is a 1L though. Both LOVE it.

I am 99.4% sure that I will be attending this Fall!
mjs92983, where are you from? are you going to the Admitted Students Event next week?

I've been in Utah the last 5-6 years. I'd like the head down but the plane ticket and getting work off make it a bit cost prohibitive. Let me know how it goes though.

did anyone attend? how many people there

Already put down deposit Will not be at admit weekend however!

Still in review...hoping to join the party later this week according to the admissions department.

However, I have a pretty good reason to believe I'm getting WL'd

After being "In Review" for over a month..... I tend to get a bit anxious. Just tell me it's in a pile with all the others waiting its turn instead of giving me the line o' crap.

My fault, I should have been more clear. I've been in review since January so I called to make sure they didn't forget about me. They just told me to expect a decision by the end of the week, and call if I don't hear back from them. They didn't tell me to "expect" to join the party.

Accepted today 4/9 via status checker. My application went complete on 3/2. Hopefully one of those big fat scholarship offers will follow in the mail! Good luck.

If you don't mind, what are your stats?

Sent in seat deposit last week, admitted students night on the 9th was nice. Roughly 75 people and catered. There were admissions/financial aid personnel to answer questions. I am excited but counting on Chapman actually rising above the top 100 like rumors suggest. Anyone have any recent information since the Bar Passage was a very respectable 84% recently?

Chapman cracks the top 100. They are ranked 93rd in the 2011 rankings.

Perfect timing!! This is great news....congrats to Chapman on working so hard and I'm sure they will only move up with time. Look forward to being part of the entering class

Just received the double good news today!

1) Chapman breaks into top 100 at #93 (tied with Santa Clara and beating out USF)

2) Just received my acceptance package from Chapman with a 100% full tuition scholarship renewable for three years with 3.0 gpa or higher!

Good luck to everyone else

Putting down my seat deposit tomorrow!

I am a current 1L at Chapman. Very excited about the new rankings. It is not surprising to those of us at Chapman. It is a great law school. Let me know if anyone has any questions as you get closer to deciding or attending. Take care.

They are even tied with Santa Clara! and beat USF

I saw that, which makes me even happier that I immediately turned USF after they didn't offer me any money yet chapman offered a full ride...Santa Clara was a bit harder to give up with $ yet now i don't feel too bad.

Congrats on the acceptance and scholarship to Chapman. I was really disappointed when USF didn't offer me any scholarship either. I guess this is the reason why Chapman will continue to surpass them in the rankings - they flat out outspend their competition. You won't regret your decision to attend Chapman. I did my undergrad their and the school, faculty, and students are really great. They make you feel like you are part of something special!

I put down my deposit a few weeks ago and now that I have heard back from everywhere I will officially be attending Chapman and couldn't be more excited, especially with the new rankings.
