Congrats... what's the secret?
Call and say stinkbear five times fast :lol:

No but just a good LSAT and consistent LOCIs :) good luck
Could you possibly share if they have any merit aid left? If not, I'm withdrawing from the waitlist -- though it's unlikely I would get in.

I got a scholarship! Didn't you get into Penn? Seems like Mich isn't a long shot :)

That sounds superb! I'm so happy for you!

I just meant that if they are out of funds, I would not attend. I think they said in their waitlist update that they're only accepting three people. So if I haven't been contacted till this day, it means they have contacted someone else. Yes, and Penn is out of funds too.

I just got an email (not a feeler) asking whether I'm still interested or I'll be withdrawn from WL. I'm fairly certain I sent something. Will send something today.

yeah, same. I already sent something and it seems it was just a mix up. Thought at a very low level that it might be to gauge my continued interest for potential admittance.

I had the same thing: sent a reply to the first feeler then got an email saying they hadn't heard anything from me. Seems a little fishy that they lost 3 different people's responses..

Movement alert: I was offered a admission yesterday with a scholarship. Scholarship was less than half of what I got from my other school, so I had to turn it down. Told the admissions com to offer my position to another waitlister. Good luck everyone! Whoever gets my spot, hope you enjoy my dream school
