Top Law Schools

Make sure you're doing fellow TLSers a favor by withdrawing from your safeties or schools that you've decided against attending. Many of us are on waitlists and would kill to go to your safeties.

Maybe you've got a boatload of acceptances and it's too early to decide which school you'll attend. If that's the case, maybe you are ready to withdraw from one or two of the schools. I imagine it would be a huge help to admissions officers as well as waitlisted/pending applicants.

I withdrew from Minnesota and USF yesterday. I plan on withdrawing from one more next week. I'm hoping to get off the waitlist at Berkeley, so if you're holding onto an acceptance you don't want, think of me -or someone you like better than me- who is stuck on the waitlist.

Tell us where you withdrew/plan on withdrawing, so we can get our hopes up prematurely.

well, at least you are leading by example. I think I will withdraw from UCLA soon.

Withdrawn from Wisconsin, and Georgia, GMU, Fordham, Indiana, Illinois, UMN, waitlists

agreed. 6 w/d's for me so far. admissions folks have been very appreciative. this is especially good to do if you are turning down $.

Withdrawing doesn't open a spot. Schools give out 3 to 4 times as many admits as they have seats. They won't start pulling from the WL until after the deposit deadline.

Right (except w/r/t merit $). It's just the right thing to do out of professional courtesy.

as a low splitter, and on behalf of low splitters, and all lower stats applicants

Thank you.

That's what she said!

Withdrew from 8 schools.

+1 for the courteous people here, my last and final withdraw will be on Saturday

Withdrew from UM, UF and W&L ... hoping TLSers get my schollies!!

Yes please do not hold onto a UCLA seat if you don't want it. Please. You don't understand how financially UCLA would save me.

Withdrawing from UIUC, WUSTL, W&L, Minnesota, and Vandy today. Good luck to everyone!

I forgot to mention I'm freeing up a $30k renewable scholarship at MN and $27k renewable scholarship at USF. Fingers crossed that they go to deserving TLSers.

DoubleChecks, haha.
