Right? It can be hard to remember how lucky we are to have gotten into the schools we have.basilseal wrote:Talk about first world problems.
All joking aside, I'd be incredibly pleased with going into crushing debt for Harvard or emerging scot-free from NU. It's the kind of dilemma I'd love to have, and I'm hardly going to be kicking myself if I somehow get both, as unlikely as I think that is.
My Chicago love remains strong.
Yeah... Scot-free from NU is still gonna leave us with $70k in loans, though...basilseal wrote:

I feel your pain. At least you've heard from some schools though, I applied to 21 schools and haven't heard anything back from any of them!elibrarian wrote:Now if I could just stop having mini panic attacks with each passing day I don't hear anything...
Definitely by the end of the week, IMO. Earlier if they start sending out decisions this week. Also, it scares the shit out of me that even with a $150K scholarship, law school costs 70K in loans. Especially considering I will be paying sticker price.egirarde wrote:Yeah... Scot-free from NU is still gonna leave us with $70k in loans, though... To be clear, I'M NOT COMPLAINING... How soon 'till we hit 100 pages? End of the week you think?

I'm pretty determined to take out no more than $30K if NU decides they love me. Though I have a bit of savings and a pretty awesome SO, so...that helps.egirarde wrote:Yeah... Scot-free from NU is still gonna leave us with $70k in loans, though...basilseal wrote:

I posted the timeline. It was from a Johann tweet, if that makes you feel any better...Samara wrote:You guys did three pages today and it turned out there was no movement?! Not even a new Johann tweet?! Don't do that to me.
In other news, I discovered through the timeline that someone posted that William Jennings Bryan was a Northwestern grad. I didn't think it was possible, but NU just scored ten more awesome points.
So excite. Suck on it, Michigan.crumpetsandtea wrote:I'll probably have ~ $10K saved up by the time I get to LS, but considering how expensive it is, that's just a drop in the bucket. I've already resigned myself to $200K in loans though, so I've been doing my best to numb myself to how scary it is
And sorry, Samara!!! We're almost at 100 pages though, aren't you excited????
Don't worry. Even if Michigan overtakes us (and yes, I contribute to the Mich thread too) when decisions come out we will burst into the lead again.Samara wrote:So excite.

there's a lot more banter ITT than in Michigan's, and if this one is here with no acceptances yet, I'm sure it will stay on topSamara wrote:Michigan has been quiet and this thread has revitalized.

Only really want to go to three (WUSTL, NU, and Nova) the rest are safeties/ going to use to try and get more money at where I do get in/want to go. Fingers crossed for some X-mas gifts in the form of acceptances.
Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

I didn't apply to any safeties, partly because my stats make it hard to determine anything but TTTs as safeties and partly because I didn't want to spend money on schools I knew I wouldn't attend. I applied to a lot of T14s (MVPBNCGT) as well as a bunch of T1 schools (BU, BC, UCD, UCLA, UCH, Emory, Vandy, CU Boulder, WUSTL, UIB, UIUC, UMN). Most of my schools are reaches.

Splitter too, but I think I am one of the only people who DOESN'T want to go east/west coast. And as much as I love Chicago, I hate the cold. I have to walk 2 miles round trip twice a day to the Daley Center, and it sucks even though it hasn't even gotten that cold yet. So that narrowed down my options. Chicago is as cold as I am going.
I was going to make exactly the same comment, haha. Chicago gets colder than almost everywhere!JamMasterJ wrote:this opens up basically everything except CornellSTLMizzou wrote: Chicago is as cold as I am going.
