Also checking in.

Checking in as well. Utah looks to be the best of all mountain west schools. Sure CU gets the hype but the employment numbers are better for Utah... by a fair bit.

Really hoping to get admitted.

I know that you can get in state tuition after a year and a summer but does anyone know if they ever offer out of state tuition waivers? I doubt it but thought I would ask!

The law school says 40 credit hours... Which basically means you have to take classes the first summer. Not a big deal but three years of in state tuition would be better than 2 (summers are charged the in state rate which is nice).

[Pip42]

My status/review date also changed to today. Really hoping to get in here!

Good luck to us both!

Checking in. I also went under review 12/11.

Good to see ya'all going for the U! Expect to wait a pretty long time to find out if you're admitted/scholarships, I applied in November and didn't hear back til March. I'm a 1L going through finals right now and it's hell, but the school is great, the professors are phenomenal, and the only thing really lacking are the facilities.

Jesus fucking Christ. That's ridiculous. Well, thanks for the heads up--I'll try to avoid getting (more) neurotic for the next three months.

Glad to hear you like it, though. Facilities are supposed to be done in 2014 right?

Yeah, don't beat yourself up waiting. What were your numbers?

Ha...the current dean is leaving, and I'm sure that'll slow down construction. They were planning on having it done end of '14/beginning of '15, but I'll be shocked if it's done before fourth quarter of '15.

3.17, 169. Hoping they need the high LSAT.

Yeah, I heard Chodosh is going somewhere in California or something, isn't he? It's too bad, he seemed like he knew what he was doing.

Oh well, I guess I'll get one semester in the new building anyway.

I'd be surprised if you didn't get in with those numbers.

Yeah Chodosh is brilliant, he's going to be president of Claremont-McKenna.

[1693]

I hope they start releasing decisions soon... already under review and it has been updating

[nickb285]

Just got a call from Dean Aguilar--I'm in! Hell yeah! No info on scholarships till March, he said, but it's a pretty good day .

[Pip42]

Congratulations Nick! I am now lamenting the fact that I didn't get my apps in sooner.

Oh well. Now its the long wait until the new year for me!

[1693]

Also got the call today Did anyone who was accepted receive scholarship info with their packet?

Grats! When did you go complete if you don't mind me asking? Did your status checker change? The more I read about Utah the more I want to go!

I will probably just stare at my phone until it rings with a SLC caller ID.

[Pip42]

Congrats 1693! I haven't gotten the packet yet, but like I said, Aguilar claims scholarship info won't go out till the first week of March. Hopefully it'll actually be earlier and he's just doing a CYA, but I'm not expecting anything anytime soon.

Also Pip, I don't know about 1693 but my status checker still hasn't changed from "In Review." And SLC area code is 801 .

Good tip! Luckily my phone says the city below the number. I got a call from Laramie WY the other day and I was like, "huh." Then I remembered what's in Laramie. It was a pretty funny 1 second long internal monologue.
