I’ve been posting on here about how badly I want to go to BC since before I even applied. Just wanted to let everyone know I got in today!!! Thanks for all the support

My decision status for the university of Maryland says Interview, and I’m kind of confused about why. Do they interview people who they aren’t sure about if they want to admit? Because I am above both 75ths for that school. I scheduled the interview for January even though I don’t even really want to go there, so does anyone have any advice when it comes to an interview? Thanks

I just sent in my application on the 26th of November but I am so anxious to get my decision back. Has anyone gotten theirs/how long did it take?

Does anyone know if you get your financial aid package/scholarship amounts when you get accepted to a school? Or do you not get it until the Spring. Just wondering if when I get accepted to a school I will be able to have a rough idea of what I would be paying.

How do you find out when a decision had been made for your application? Like do you have to keep checking your application status or will they email you/send a letter?

I just finished sending in my applications so now I have nothing to do until I start school next fall. Is the 7Sage Law School Course worth it to prepare for law school/have something to do?

Northeastern states that your personal statement should be no longer than 2 pages and that your optional statement should be no more than 1. My personal statement is currently 2 and a half pages and my optional statement is one page and a few lines on to a second page. Will it look bad for me to not follow the directions and submit these, or will admissions people not care?

I didn’t ask him to but one of my recommenders sent me the letter that he submitted for me. In the letter he says things like “she will excel at any law school she attends” and “it would be a mistake for any law school to not accept her” which make it sound like a good letter to use for all schools. However, he works at Harvard law school and in the letter he said “I would love to be able to have her in my class again at Harvard Law School”. Can I still submit this to all law schools? My numbers make it very unlikely that I will get into Harvard law school and my top choice is BC. Will it be bad for BC to know I am also applying to Harvard?

I am still waiting on one letter of recommendation but I want to submit my application within the next week. Does it matter if you submit your application before all of your letters are in? And would they wait to look at my application until all the letters are in?

I plan on submitting my applications this month and was just wondering if anyone knew when I could expect to get decisions back?

Does it take a while after a recommender uploads a letter for it to show up as received on LSAC? I'm getting worried because my recommenders said they would upload them weeks ago but it still says "requested but not acknowledged by recommender" and 0 letters received

If anyone else is applying to a dual degree program, would you be willing to swap personal statements?? Or if anyone wants to swap a law School PS with my MSW PS that would work too.I could really use some suggestions or feedback on my PS.

This is completely off-topic and has nothing to do with law school but I would appreciate someone's opinion. I am applying to do a dual MSW/JD program at Boston College and am a little confused by part of the prompt for the MSW personal statement. It says you should explain the relevance of past/current work experience to your choice of a major field. Does this mean your major in college?

Does it matter if you answer questions on law school applications that are not required? For example, should you answer what other law schools you’re applying to if it’s not required, and other types of questions like that. And how many hours a week you worked at certain jobs, because that fluctuated for me so can I leave that blank since it will let me?

Do people think it’s worth it to spend a lot of money on applications? I really want to go to BC and would prefer to stay in MA but there are other schools out of state I am thinking of applying to as a just in case. Right now the schools Im thinking of fees add up to almost $800. Should I cut down the list since I want to stay in MA and have a good chance of getting into law schools here? Or should I apply elsewhere just in case?
