Would y'all mind PM'ing numbers?

WUSTL is rapidly climbing my board. Forest park looks amazing, and being able to take my son to the zoo and museums for free is very appealing.

Not that you should make your law school decision based on this, but I live in St. Louis and can vouch for it being an incredibly family-friendly place. Between the affordability and the Midwestern niceness, it's a great town (despite what you might have seen on the news).

I'm originally from Detroit, so yeah that aspect isn't a deterrent.

All you guys with full rides are making us "almost full rides" feel bad about ourselves now.

I know that, I was looking for slightly more details (which they provided) since the profile requires you to round.

Just wanted to make sure you (and others) knew that was an option to get (general) numbers.

Double posting to say that I was admitted a day after my interview. No scholarship information, but judging by others ITT, it seems the (fairly) norm is about a week after the interview.

The interviewer was so nice and I got accepted an hour after the interview was done.

St Louis looks like a nice city and the campus too.

Interviewed at 2 PM CST, just as friendly and easy as everyone said it would be! Hoping to hear something before the weekend, but probably won't lol

Those from St. Louis, any suggestions on a good lunch near campus? I'll need to grab a bite before the Open House on the 18th, and I'd like to see what things are like around the university.

If you are trying to stick near the university, I like Thai Country Cafe, Seoul Taco , or Taj Mahal. Or if you aren't into stuff like that Fitz's is really good too. All these are on Delmar less than 5 minutes from the law school.

Salt and Smoke is another good Delmar option. Killer brisket.

1L here sharing some info that many of you may find handy:

I applied ED last year with <25% LSAT (like embarrassingly bad but there's a story as to why so bad) and >75% GPA. I also had some really impressive softs. While I didn't get full, they called me and gave me a substantial other offer that would be binding if I accepted it (they gave me a couple of weeks to visit and think about it) or I could be rolled to RD and likely not get the same amount of money. It seems that they're not doing it that way this year. I took the binding offer and I'm so glad that I did. This year's 1L class is wonderful, friendly and REALLY smart.
