International Student current situation and quesiton
Hi! I am an international student with 155 LSAT (my gpa isn't regarded so I guess it doesn't really matter but LSAC said it's superior :-))
As of now I got waitlisted at DePaul, Chicago-Kent, and NIU while admitted to NKU.
I also applied to UIC and Pace in December and I am waiting to hear from them (which as it seems will happen in a decade).
I am surprised by the NIU waitlist since I am above their 75th percentile on the LSAT yet admitted to NKU where I am a bit above their median.
I guess my question is, am I cooked? I honestly prefer Chicago and I am kind of worried NKU is the only one admitting me. no hate to Cincinnati of course, but it kind of breaks my heart a bit (UIC's stats are higher than NIU). I guess it's because my international status worries them but I try to make some sense of that.
