Washington University School of Law

Hey everyone!

I wanted to share the good news, I got accepted into Washington University In St. Louis! From my first month of using 7sage, June, to now, I have found respite and great advice in these discussion forums. I never imagined myself to share some advice as well. So, here it is: do not give up, do not doubt yourself, you will always surprise yourself when you expect the least. If you have an LSAT score below a schools median do not shy away from applying just to save the $80. I had a 163, while WashU's median is a 169. Yet, they accepted me because of the overall holistic acceptance process. I would advice you too also use the Edit Once for your personal statement and/or diversity statements. These are major categories for admissions officers to look at. lastly, know why you want to go to law school. Your entire application will be built upon that foundation. Thank you everyone for creating this vibrant and supportive 7sage community. It has been a pleasure.

    Thank you for sharing this! I am waiting on my November score but my previous LSAT score is also under median for WashU ( it was well under my PT) so seeing this gives me hope. I attended the Wash U open house the other day and really liked what I heard! Is your GPA above median by chance? There application for process does seem holistic, congrats!
