I've called schools and asked them to look at my application even though it's late and every school that I asked except one is allowing me to apply.

That's awesome! Do you mind if I ask which schools allowed it and didn't?

I have a sentence in my diversity statement that reads "The X that I faced gave me thicker skin and a resilience to bend to others’ expectations and adversity." A few people read my DS and didn't notice it. I didn't even notice it until I had already sent it out to a bunch of schools this week and the last. I meant to say that I gained a resilience to bendING not to bend, which means the complete opposite of what I intended. The way it's phrased now sounds like I DO bend to other peoples' expectations.

Please help! What should I do? Is it understandable enough to leave it as is or should I email or call the schools and ask to send in an amended draft?

Wow! Thank you so much, everybody. Super helpful responses (especially that spreadsheet). I might give some schools a call after all. :smiley:

Do any schools offer spring admissions?

I'm late to the game and didn't apply before I took my February LSAT because I wasn't sure if I was capable. I was pleasantly surprised with a162 but now I'm wondering if I'll really have to wait another year and a half before I can officially start law school since I missed the deadlines for this fall.

It seems like there aren't many schools that offer spring starts. I tried to find a comprehensive list but the last one was made by Powerscore earlier this decade. I'm looking particularly for T30 or T50 schools but I was hoping to get some information here before I sifted through each one individually.

Thank you! :)
