Admissions Decisions for the 2013-2014 Cycle



The Interview
The interview process is relatively new, and fairly straight-forward. You have the option to interview in person, over Skype, or over the phone. The interview is generally low-key and all of the adcomms are very friendly, and during the past application cycle, interviews are essentially an acceptance, with most applicants either getting an offer at the end of the interview or an allusion to such an offer. Here are a list of reported questions/topics that other students have fielded:

- If you are a splitter, be prepared to address the lower number.
- Why law school? Why WUSTL?
- Why did you choose your undergraduate institution?
- Why did you choose that major?
- Be prepared to discuss your personal statement and resume.
- Have you ever been to St. Louis?
- Have you ever lived outside of <your hometown>?
- How do you feel your second BA/master/professional degree compliments your first?
- What area of law interests you?

I kid, I kid. Had to cop that first page status doh.

I am really stoked to check out WashU this fall. Has anyone taken them up on the "$200 stipend & hotel" visit offer that a few other applicants have seen?

Yep. I have to say that they do a really excellent job of wooing prospectives

Good luck.

Checking in wustl looks appealing especially if I can get money I'm just not sure how I feel about St. Louis

I love WUSTL. Never hear anything bad about it. I want to apply so bad, but I just really dont wanna work in stl or any surrounding areas.

Checking In!

Good Job Scotti also, love that that 2017'ers are chiming in on the 18' thread.

Another '17-er here to bother all you prospectives.
