Also in as of today (also applied last minute in the cycle).

B2 - 3.4ish I think
CGPA - 3.3
LSAT - 162

No sask connection. Strong work exp, ECs and LORs. Applied under special or mature category. Deadline June 6.

I will prob not accept. Still thinking. I'll make my decision soon to possibly free up the spot for someone else.

I agree that its frustrating to wait but I'm sure the people who were accepted are excellent candidates.

That being said, if only someone could put me into a coma until I get a decision. I'm turning into a crazy person!

It was hard. Kept myself busy. Came up with a "plan B". And studied for another LSAT. I knew then it wouldn't be easy so when I got rejected I wasn't surprised.

Hey all,

Just started checking out these forums for info from people who go to U of S. I got accepted a while ago (I think the first round). LSAT was 166, and CGPA was about 81% (85% last two). Looking forward to attending.

Does anyone have a link for a good website for student apartments and housing? I would probably prefer to live on my own but would be open to roommates as well.

Thanks and congrats to everyone else accepted, and GL to anyone else still waiting to get in!

Congratulations to all of you who have been accepted and will be joining the U of S!

For those of you who have been accepted but haven't found it yet, the students moving into second year started a facebook group for you where you can chat about places to live, what to expect, etc. Here's the link: https://www.facebook...50587648317725/

We are looking forward to having you here, and hopefully you all consider to join Pro Bono Students Canada next year!!

Thanks for the tips. I'm trying to keep busy too but its so hard to concentrate on anything. I hope all of us who are still waiting here back soon!
