Voted "Food" solely because of Portillos.

Al's Beef is superior IMO.

EDIT: there's also a hole in the wall italian beef place on lasalle and division that's amazing, blanking on the name though.

Checking in. Haven't started my PS and waiting on 2 extraordinarily lazy professors to respond to my follow up regarding LORs. Hoping to get all apps in by Oct 1.

[Slippin' Jimmy]

Unsolicited waiver via email. Still not sure if I'll apply or not.

UChicago pls love me with a fee waiver. Historically it seems they're not too solicitation friendly but it's worth a shot.

If money's not tight I'd say go for it. I have similar numbers and am definitely gonna throw an app their way

[tuna_wasabi]

The waiver made my day! Thank you Chi!

The waiver made my day! Thank you Chi!

I got a waiver, but only when I checked the app on my LSAC account, did everyone get an email about it?

Edit: I'm dumb and didn't check my spam, email with waiver went there.

[dm1683]

I solicited a while back, was given a non-answer, but got one today! Really relieved.

^ yes I got an email.

tfw no waiver.

Edit: nvm I have a waiver but don't see an email in my inbox, nor do I see one in spam
Edit2: Not in my inbox, not in my spam, but in my "all mail" folder. I wonder how many emails I never see because of this.

Question: Will Chicago send out more fee waivers after the September LSAT scores come out? I didn't do as well as I thought I could in June (and am much more prepared this time around, so I think I can definitely get a better score this time) and I did not get a fee waiver. I'm definitely applying either way since Chicago is my #1, but a fee waiver would help a bunch.

Current student who starts orientation on Monday. Don't know much about the school yet, but feel free to AMA about the admissions process in a PM.

[wannabegenius]

checking in! Was considering applying ED but after seeing some of your scores it probably won't make a difference. Oh well, one can dream

Quick app question: Is everyone listing the other schools they're applying to? I just noticed they ask at the end of Section 8. "Law School Interest"

[InterLaw]

Dear comrades,

I'm checking out. After some strategy planning I decided not to apply to Chicago (not an easy decision) due to some policy they have about international students.

I just wanted to wish you all good luck, I really hope you all get into UChicago - so that I can have less competition anywhere else!

Bye!

I did. No harm in being honest and I'm not the first applicant they've ever had who blanketed the T13

[jjdude14]

I'll go ahead and tentatively check in here. Dream school, hopefully Saturday's LSAT comes through
