Accepted last night via phone call, as well. Call came about 6 p.m.

[15 to 32]

to the two of you that have been accepted:

first, congratulations!

second, when did you apply?

and third, if you care to share, what were your LSAT and GPA numbers?

[gannoncs]

Accepted with 163, 3.72. Anyone know about scholarships? I didn't talk to the guy, just listened to the voicemail and don't really have time to call back

[gannoncs]

Applied way back in October, annoying that they waived my app fee months after I had already paid

[claymore5]

162/3.61, applied in mid-November. Dean Aguilar said that a second committee will decide scholarships sometime in February.

Did he say anything about LGBT schollies?

[claymore5]

No, but I hear they have a strong focus on those at Gtown.

No, but I hear they have a strong focus on those at Gtown.

I hope you applied there, then.

[aidanm2]

been in review since 1/3, wondering if anyone knows how long it took for admission decision to be made

[6thbackstreetboy]

Just got in via voicemail. Complete in early November.

[aidanm2]

[6thbackstreetboy]

acceptance call came today at 5pm central. Acceptance letters will be mailed out tomorrow. Information packets will be mailed out on Wednesday.

Notes:
Merit based scholarship information mailed by March 5
Admitted student day March 26
Open Houses on February 29 and late April.

Students can gain in-state residency status after 40 semester hours and establishing ties to Utah (drivers license and car registered.) The Dean said that the first year out-of-state students are advised to take 10 hours over the summer (open enrollment, no out-of-state fee) so that the second two years will be at in-state tuition costs.

I'm so glad to have found this thread! I got the U's acceptance call last week, to me it was great news and I'm seriously considering attending. I've got mediocre numbers so I wanted to encourage everybody else who's in the same boat.

Great information - esp on the summer hours for in-state, thanks. Any news on a stipend for those of us possibly (hopefully) attending and traveling from far away?

+1 I would LOVE to hear back from Utah with an acceptance. This would be a great option for me to go here!

[15 to 32]

to those that have been accepted:

first congratulations, second are you all from out of state (not UT)?

[jenkswarrior]

I'm a UT resident, but I submitted my application really early. Dean Aguilar made it sound like they'll be sending out alot of decisons the first week of February.

[asanborn]

Got my call from Dean Aguilar at about 3:30 PM MT! Excited to finally hear back from somebody...and get it!

[coldshoulder]

Got my call and I'm in as well. For you out of staters, what's making you want to go to Utah?

[YankeeFan2]

That's great to hear. Really Utah is my "last piece" of my law school puzzle. I am going to tour the school on Thursday and really hope decisions come out that following week.

[bulldoglaw]

I went "In Review" for a second time 1/31.

[portaluser]

Under Review 1/31 as well. Hopefully that means we'll hear something this week! I went complete mid November.

Under my status section it looks like this:

Term: Fall

The rest is blank. Anyone else have that?
