Law School Applications / Re: University of Denver« on: April 29, 2008, 01:24:20 PM »anyone taking the bait on the summer preview class? I've heard mixed reviews about this. My year, it was free. . .I don't know why they started charging people. I say it is more a psychologicial help than anything else (calms the nerves about law school, etc). 23

Though it is nerve-wracking, as I have not seen the place in-person. A couple of my friends lived & some still live in the Covington. It is a pretty decent apt complex. I'm not sure if it's walking distance though. . .at least I couldn't walk that far. But then again, maybe I'm just too lazy or out of shape.

Even during rush hour, traffic in Denver isn't really that bad. Unless you've lived in a rural area with 1 stop light for the most of your life, you'll find that Denver commute is really doable. I have classmates who commute from Colo Springs! Would I do it? No. But it's certainly doable. From Broomfield I would look at about 30-45mins depending on the time of day and how fast you drive.
 Hope good news is on your way! Let us know. 25

I agree. . .it probably means you are still being considered. I didn't hear back from DU til May. If you are really that curious, call them. . .everyone in admissions is nice. 26

I don't mean to downplay your learning disability & I really hope you can reapply but isn't time the biggest problem for most people on the LSAT?
Again, I really hope you find the answers to your questions and good luck!

Skinsfan123: PM me w/your questions.
We are in EXTREMELY similar situations (international law, relocating after graduation, etc). . .minus the dual degree (which I considered for a while but decided against). I've been talking to A LOT of alums, career services, current 3Ls who are moving after graduation, etc with many of the same questions you have. Denver isn't exactly the international law capital of the country. Many attorneys here will attest to that. That being said, Denver has the most federal government agencies after Washington, DC. On the location issue, I agree 100% w/Matties (as if this is new). Outside of truly national schools, go to schools in the city, state, region you want to practice. It is easier to network, find jobs, and get your foot in the legal community. Also, alumni and school ties has A LOT to do with who gets hired from what school. |
I was seeking out a place with a good pet policy and a washer/dryer in unit, and The Covington has both. My sig. other is a pharmacist in the Denver area, and I will living/splitting rent with him, and am very thankful for that opportunity-- It's letting me cut back on my loan amount by about $400-500 each year, and every little bit helps.
