[blindlaw] Bluebook

[Michal Nowicki]

Hello Nicole,

There is nothing "certain" about law school waiting lists other than the
fact that you will receive a final decision on your application.  As you
hopefully realize by now, wait list offers of admission are extended when an
admitted student withdraws from the entering class, which may or may not
happen at this point, given that tuition deposit deadlines already passed at
most (if not all) schools.  Additionally, even if a spot does open up, the
Admissions Committee may accept someone else, since there are hundreds of
applicants on most waiting lists.  That said, go ahead with trying to get
your books, but your first priority should be taking advantage of every
available opportunity to try to get off the waiting list, especially if you
haven't been accepted to a law school you would be willing to attend if
Maryland doesn't have a spot for you.  Good luck!

Michal

Hello everyone, I too AM starting law school in the fall but have been
placed on University of Maryland weightless. I am fairly certain that I will
be fully accepted but, what will I need to get started seeing as I have not
received my acceptance letter yet nor do I know what course materials are
needed. Attempting to get a head start On Jul 19, 2015 3:44 PM, "Michal
