Should I be worried? Has anyone else who applied not heard from UO?

I wouldn't. My buddy just got accepted and he didn't get that letter. The admission process seems so very disorganised. His LSAT score and GPA are considerably lower than mine with comparable softs and I submitted a month before he submitted.

We both applied last year so we already have Infoweb Logins. Phone in.

Plus, to add insult to injury, the Bears aren't going to win the division for another 8 years ;)... I haven't received my Infoweb letter yet either jsteele - don't sweat it.

I dunno. I hope I get in soon. I busted my ass off for that 160. LSAT was not my cup of tea.

Lol, I knew I'd have to defend my display pic once I saw all the packers fans on this site. Cutler going down last week didn't help us much either, but if we can survive till he's back we'll have legit shot at beating you guys in a playoff scenario. Bears play the pack better than most teams. It'd be a sick game at any rate

It's a tight race between Ottawa, Dal and Calgary.

Calgary is really just because I love the city and I love to snowboard (Banff is 45m away).

If I got into Dal and Ottawa, it would be a very, very difficult decision.

Muffins - you and I have very similar stats (it's erie!). I have a feeling you'll get some good news very soon! :)

Lol, that made me laugh. Doubt that guy could raise his shoulder high enough to throw the ball, but he could probably take mean hits in the pocket. We could use em' behind the shitty line we've had the last few years

Just checked my mailbox to find a letter from University of Ottawa. It contained both an acknowledgement of my application and my infoweb info. Infoweb still says they are "considering my application" though.

Muffins, Did your buddy get a letter from UO or did he see his acceptance on the InfoWeb? I am hoping my chances are high. I know they are with my stats, but I made an embarrassing mistake on my personal statement that I think I should address. I left an alternate university name in one sentence. I have University of Ottawa in most sentences, but accidentally left "Western" in one of them.

He just checked online. The infoweb accounts were reactivated. Maybe the Infoweb letter is in the mail somewhere.

I don't think that there is anyway you can fix that mistake. I would not worry about it. They cannot expect applicants to completely rewrite their personal statements for each school.

Thanks for the response. I hope that mistake doesn't completely ruin my chances. MY LSAT is 164 2nd-write and 158 first. I did two years engineering at the UofC (3.87/4.0 cGPA). Didn't like engineering though. I finished my undergrad at Laurier double major in economics and mathematics (approx 3.85/4.0 cGPA there).

Muffins, I noticed above you are thinking Calgary. I am from the city. Have you visited the Faculty of Law at the UofC?
