Top Law Schools

Hello! Didn't see one of these up yet so figured I would get it going. Anyone receive word yet?

Accepted with 24k a year! Would be nice to go here and live with family, but I got in to some better schools with the same scholly offer so I'm gonna try and negotiate in March and see how it goes.

Congrats! Im hoping for a similar outcome. I'm curious, how did they notify you?

I was notified by email. When did you apply?

My file was complete 12/30

Admitted about a month ago with a $96,000 total scholarship. 161/3.71

Checking in. Admitted about a month ago with a 90% scholly.

Applied a week ago, still waiting! How long did it take for those admitted to hear back from when complete?

I was complete 10/7 but heard back 12/17

Just got accepted via e-mail. Submitted 12/23, complete 1/5, accepted 1/12. 28k/year!

Admitted 12/8 via email. Complete 10/29. 43K a year scholly offer.

Applied in October and admitted back in December with decent scholarship. Probably won't end up going there but it is a good option to have!

Complete 1/15.

Just waiting now.

Does the status ever change to in review or anything? Mine just says complete for a while now but the date keeps changing.

ANyone?

Accepted via email. In Review since 1/16.

Does scholly info come separately? Above 75th LSAT, 25th GPA

Ah yes, I spoke to soon. Just got it.

My application is going reverse now...

Went from complete -> application received. What is going on?

Just got accepted with a $24,000 scholarship. Was dying to make it out to a law school out in SoCal but gave up on that idea due to my 3.2 GPA making scholarships unlikely. After seeing that I not only got in but it's actually affordable, I'm starting to have second thoughts about the law school in the Midwest that I was rather set on that's marginally ranked higher and is still cheaper, anyone have any insights?

It depends on where you want to practice/ what the other school in question is. If you go to USD, you will be pretty much limited to practicing in San Diego or Riverside county, or maybe some firms in South Orange County. I mean, San Diego is one of my favorite places, so you could definitely be "stuck" in worse locations.

The other school is University of Oklahoma College of Law for slightly cheaper. The twist is my family runs a decent sized small practice in Oklahoma and I've got a few connections from that family business so I feel like I could always return there if need be. My thoughts are to go to school and network out west and have both regions as options instead of just consolidating myself to Oklahoma.

And on the side note of being stuck in San Diego, while I haven't made it down there I have made it out to Long Beach several times and have a cousin that I love that moved down there. Heard nothing but good things about San Diego, would be a dream to be out there if not at least for a few years.
