Hi guys,Tue Nov 03, 2009 03:17 PM How is the application process going? I am left with two more to finish and I am through and then have to wait and wait....oh the waiting, I think nothing damages applicants more than the waiting. BEST OF LUCK EVERYONE, hope to hear how your process is treating you, challenges, light moments... etc --- |

Hi Econ Rights!Tue Nov 03, 2009 04:49 PM Your concern about fellow Africans applicants is great!! I am an African, from Kenya:) I'm definitely applying to several American Universities: Harvard, Stanford, NYU, BU, Columbia, Cornell...(it doesn't hurt to apply i just might get lucky) Are you a Kenyan...thought I saw some Kiswahili? Are you a student or are you working? I am still a student doing my final year... Regards, Ojousama Hi Econ Rights, |

RE: Anyone from Africa applying?
Hi again everyone!! How goes the waiting? Are any of you still working on your applications? Anyone got admitted anywhere?Tue Dec 15, 2009 08:13 PM How is the wait so far? For me, its nerve wrecking, but hey, the darkest hour is just before the break of dawn :-)! I hope all of you are not too nerve wrecked. I sent my last application to Cardozo last week, and now I am done, just waiting and crossing my fingers :-). Once again, best of luck and I hope you will be able to get admissions to the schools of your choice. --- |

RE: Anyone from Africa applying?
It's sad that at the end of the day, its the dollar that ends up dictating where u go, if u go...:-(. So unfortunate. Should have gone corporate after law school. But then again, trying to make the world a better place is a calling more than anything else. Fri Mar 05, 2010 03:07 PM --- [Edited by Econ rights on 05 Mar 2010] |

Fri Mar 12, 2010 02:53 PM It's sad that at the end of the day, its the dollar that ends up dictating where u go, if u go...:-(. So unfortunate. Should have gone corporate after law school. But then again, trying to make the world a better place is a calling more than anything else. Hey Wan: I am in the same boat. I also got half. However, if Penn Law gives me substantially more, I will go to Penn, it's only 55 minutes from NYC and the living costs are way much cheaper and I kinda liked the way Penn treated people during the application process. I am giving up my seat at Columbia, Michigan, Cardozo and Indiana. So I am just really torn between Penn and NYU and right now it boils down to the dollar for me, both schools are incredible. When was your deadline for acceptance from NYU? --- |
