I'm in a similar position to LuckyDog's. Deposited at BU. Would prefer to go elsewhere if possible.

@jb2028: Thank you for the insight. But when you say "read the fine print for every school," where exactly is the fine print? Is it in an admissions offer? Buried somewhere on their website? Located somewhere on admitted students' page?

@CanWeTalkAboutTerrenceMalick: that's a good point if you haven't received anything from school

's regarding the deposit/can't find it then maybe just reach out and ask them

@CanWeTalkAboutTerrenceMalick: The school's deposit page will list anything you're agreeing to when you commit/deposit. Most of these forms are brief and the relevant info should be easy to find.

I use "fine print" as shorthand for "that particular school's language you agree to when you commit/deposit," but it is not actually fine print/hard to find

Even if it's a terrible policy (a few years ago, Notre Dame overadmitted and sent out an email telling admits their deposit deadline was now "when we reach our maximum number of deposits.”)

Thanks for the clarification. One page on the BU website that is password protected (only admitted students were given the password, I think) and that has some information about the deposits BU requires doesn't say anything about withdrawing. It just says that the two deposits are non-refundable.

@Ijustwannagetinman: your time will come soon enough!

i might reapply who else?

Yeah, definitely not. I guess you stopped inputting your admissions decisions on your status page at some point, right? It's not the case that you're actually waiting on all of the schools whose status box you haven't filled in, I take it. I imagine the 3.46 UGPA is bringing you down; and if so, I don't see how R&R-ing could help you.
CanWeTalkAboutTerrenceMalick

Hopefully you got into one of the schools you applied to this go around.

I mean, you could R&R and take some fancy job to pad your resume or apply to lower-ranked schools.

FYI people, jobs always never hurt you, but there is a diff between waitress and JPM M&A intern or paralegal or biglaw legal assistant

working as a BL legal assistant is not going to tip the scale unless you're already an edge case. i'm speaking from experience.
CTCSH
8:47
It isn't a scale tipper, but when viewing WE it may be +1 point vs +.25 points. One way to look at the legal realm is that law school/JDs are the MBA for entry level legal positions (paralegal, writer/reviewer, assistant, etc.). That is not the case in its entirety, but for argument's sake, imagine someone applying to a MBA with only waiting experience lol Won't be a negative, but it isn;t the biggest positive either. I am FULL on board for the having fun thing, tho - live it up (working for the weekend!).
