How many schools are you applying to?

I figure that 3 safety schools and 4 semi reach schools are enough for me, what about you?

    6 schools for sure. Might add more to negotiate scholarships with. I would blanket the T14, but I really want to stay on the east coast. I'll probably apply to any schools of interest I get a fee wavier too as well.

    I will apply almost all of the T14. Really love a good number of schools in there.

    Scholarship negotiation is a reality of law school applications and with fee waivers to almost all of those schools it won't hurt to apply.

    I think you will get some, and based on how quickly they came I think you will be able to use some. Probably wouldn't wait more than 2 weeks-ish though.

    All T14. May include Georgetown as a 15th.

    might be a naive qs but how does one go about asking for fee waivers??

    Politely and concisely request one. Also, include the following information in a format similar to this:
    LSDAS GPA: x.xx

    LSAT SCORE: xxx

    LSAC ACCOUNT NUMBER: Lxxxxxxxx

    Also a few schools that I was interested had information on fee waivers on their websites. So I’d suggest starting there first - search the website for “fee waivers”, then if nothing comes up, send a short and sweet email.

    The T13 minus Yale and Stanford (and minus UT if you go by T14), WUSTL, Fordham and probably 1 NYC safety school because why not.
