Hi everyone,
I just applied and could not find an existing thread. Anyone else applied to this school?

Definitely applying in a few days.

Very excited for this school.

previous work with an IT giant here in my area. Currently working in finance; the department I am part of is heavy in IT.

Already have a bro in Cali, who is also an attorney, so I will not be totally alone if I get in and choose to go.

Nice to 'meet' - I don't have an attorney in my family, nor do I want to do IP law, but it is the school I qualify for most (safety). I think it is a great school.

Man they are really fast. Application Receipt: 1/1, Application Complete Email: 1/3, "In Committee": 1/3. Fingers crossed! Also noticed, 1st Deposit, Second Deposit, and Seat Deposit on the bottom left hand corner.

See that as well! Maybe it's a good sign!

Applied back in October and got accepted not even two days later and got some scholarship info a few weeks later. I was definitely not expecting to hear back so quickly!

Sent an application 12/4 and was accepted 12/11. Decent scholarship makes this the most convenient option (I live 10 min from school), so I will probably attend unless one of those schools I had no business applying to mistakenly lets me in.

Congratulations! Did you get an email or did they change your online tracker?

Do you mind sharing your stats? I live like 20 minutes from the school so hoping for it!

I got an email first, and I then went and saw my online status had changed. I got a letter a few days later with scholly info and a packet a few days after that with more detail on the scholly. The amount mentioned in the first letter turned out to be an annual amount, so I was happy about that.

I am also PrizeFighter on law school numbers, so you can see my numbers and other stuff there. Good luck!

I live 10 min from the school as well. I also applied to schools I had no business applying to ;-)

I got in per status checker yesterday. It said admitted at about 6 pm. I went complete only the 4th! Super fast! Then I got an email w invite to Facebook group as well as email from the assistant dean of academic affairs. I will schedule another tour and attend a class and get excited about going there. Waiting for the letter in the mail in hopes of some $

- see you soon maybe :-)

Do you mind telling why you are withdrawing?

I've gotten some more compelling offers from other places. SCU would have to be a full ride with no stips to do it for me. Their job numbers and scholarship retention rates are a little concerning. Regardless, I still think it is a great school, especially if you want to do IP or PI.
