Update at Penn

[Snoopy]

how'd your call with the admissions office go?

Anyone else still waiting? Anyone have any news? I won't give up hope until August 30.

Was told to call on Monday. I realise at this point I am probably dead in the water. But I will not give up hope until it is officially over.

Is anyone else seriously considering not going to law school and doing something else really interesting with 3 years and $125K

Nope.

I hate the working so much....

Ok at this point I guess I have to give into reason. Penn is a no go .  *Sigh*, oh well.

[Ginatio]

what's your backup plan?

Work. Apply next year. One thing is for certain I will be applying to about 10 or so schools.

I was rejected off of the waitlist today. Derek's letter was dated August 5th. I don't know if I would have been able to go this late in the game anyhow.

[Ginatio]

you know what though?

orientation is in 15 days. and it's mandatory. if people don't show up, then that gives the admissions office 4 days to round up replacements off the waitlist...

You got it in the mail? That sucks, sorry to hear. My mail service is really slow so I am pondering whether I should call to find out if I got the pink slip.

I have but given up hope for this year. I think if I avert a rejection it will be a really good sign if I have to re-apply. So that is what my interest is.

I'm still pretending that they may call a few of us, though I know that this is a Pipe Dream.

Lawst, what part of the US do you live in?  I am just curious as to which day I should be looking for my rejection.  Thanks a lot, and if you don't mind sharing your stats that would be very cool.

Thanks!
