Law School Discussion

Hi, canuck,
Thanks for your offer. Sounds good for me. During last seven years I've been living in Fort Lee, NJ - main Korean community center on East Coast. I know people, they are hardworking, very quiet, ideal neighbors. And I love Korean food! By the way, I just came from Korean restourant ten minutes ago, but I had sushi this time (I am a sushi addict).
My name's Konstantin Levinovsky. Came from Moscow, Russia in 1991. I am a bit older than you, graduated ..16 years ago. My undergrad and grad years were fantastic, and I got stock mentally in these years forever. So I still young inside. Do not worry - I am quiet guy, no laud music/TV, favorite activity - reading. I worked out 2-3 times a week in my gym, even started low-cholesterol diet recently. I'd like to improve myself in many directions.
I am going PT evening, and I am not planning to work at least first semester, because I don't know how can I manage this after all these years.
I see mutual benefits for both of us in your offer. For example,
as a local guy w/car I can show you everything in NYC area etc.

I saw this double room in a New Residence Hall. It looks OK w/private bathroom and small hall w/additional bed (for guests?). Rooms are separate and big enough. And they mentioned some other areas for law students, but I didn't see them.
So I am gladly accept your offer. The only problem I see is some requirements on application. It is said that roomates request must be mutual, and application and deposit for both parties should be submitted in the same envelope.
What we're gonna do? Should I send my application w/deposit tomorrow or should I wait? If they need my appl with yours I can bring it in personally tomorrow.
Let me know.

Hi, canuck, and thanks for your words!
My friend in Shulte, Roth happens to be a ...Buffalo graduate.
She liked the school. Her 1L wasn't very good, then she aced up
2L&3L, made some secondary Law Review and graduated Magna Cum Laude. Among young associates she knows one more from her school and four from Hofstra.
Salary difference can be probably explained by the fact that majority of graduates are employed locally.
I understand your concern about money. Actually I am still waiting from two less expensive schools, Rutgers and even (!)
CUNY.
So if you think about NYC Big Law, Hofstra is better known, but if you can make Buffalo closer to the top of the class, you're OK. 

I am NYC part-timer as well. You can see my data on http://www.lawschoolnumbers.com (user ID - "KL"). I am just curious about your choices. For now mine is Hofstra (eve), but I am still waiting for the others.

Thanks,

Thanks, canuck, and congrats!

I applied to PT day. Then they informed me about new PT eve pgm
as additional choice. I agreed for both and was admitted for eve.

My friend in Shulte, Roth & Zabel said they have Hofstra graduates. By the way, this Sun.,March 28 in 10 AM there will be Admitted Student Reception in Hofstra. I'll be there.

Tomorrow I'll visit the same event in Pace (my other choice for know, still waiting for couple others...)

I'll keep you posted.

Non-trad/foreign-ed/degree GPA 3.41/LSAT 146, 151/lots of WE

My first letter of acceptance for PT fall 2004 is from Pace, and I am trying to gather any info about this school.

Thanks,

Ken.
