I'm 21 from Frederick MD, attempting to live on campus next year (room and board is actually reasonable!) any other spiders out there?

[Pappak]

Looking at coming in fall 2011... Admitted students day was put together very well

[Mpeterson4]

Sent in my deposit today after visiting the Open House on 4/1

Originally from Pittsburgh, PA and attended University of Kentucky.. See you in the fall

[Kainmacbeth]

Coming to Richmond from Atlanta. Has anyone started looking for housing yet?

[Pappak]

I signed up for on campus housing but I'm still looking for an alternative

I looked at a few of the apartment complexes when I was there for open house at the beginning of the month. No clue where I'm going to live though

Yeah. I looked at places in the West End and The Fan area when I was up last weekend fo ASD.

Kainmacbeth - are you the guy I was sitting next to at the open house from georgia? my car crash involved a freeway exit meridian. this probably reads a little odd to people who didn't attend an open house.

Look at TLS Forums in action! It could be me. Did I ask you "What did you see?"

[bakkabennu]

yep! and I interrogated you about your bootcamp sneakers.

Just decided to come here the other day...is there a facebook group set up?

[dshirs32]

Hey all, I am currently a 1L at UR. I highly recommend living off campus as that is what most people do and I personally couldn't stand living in a dorm again. At any rate, there are some great housing options located close to campus. I recommend the Estates at Horsepen, Malvern Manor, the Village at Horsepen, and the Honeytree Apartments. All are pretty legit and super close to campus. Trust me, when finals are around, like right now, it's great to get off campus to do work and such (though I am currently sitting at my carrel)

[dshirs32]

Oh ye, and I'd be happy to answer any other questions that you all have

[dibs]

i second my section-mate's opinion.

on a side note, i am looking for a new roomie for august. i am boring, hate drinking, and got a C in everything; my 1L outlines will be useless to you. i suck at oral advocacy and shouldn't be giving you opinions about anything law school related.

if interested, let me know here so i can publicly vet you.

[GentlemanJim]

Helluva pitch. Good luck with that.

Looks like I'll be attending provided nothing unexpected happens in the next couple months. Getting excited.

[save the world]

Any news on the WL front?

[crysmissmichelle]

Anybody else just REALLY wanting to get started now? The facebook page doesn't have much information and someone told me that course schedules and book lists won't be sent until mid-July.

[Foxkid1]

Does anyone know when we get our booklist and schedule? I was told mid-july too, but I haven't received anything. Not that I am anxious or anything...

[rattnroll]

I emailed and asked in mid-June and was told we'd receive our schedules the first part of August.
I plan on commuting to school and would love to know as soon as possible so I can get a few things organized.
I'm also really ready to get started! Actually, I'm really ready to leave my job (a week and a half left) and have a two week vacation before school starts!

[Foxkid1]

same here rattnroll. I am trying to work out logistics (commuting, study schedule, etc.) I am sure we will get everything soon enough, I just hope it isn't two days before orientation

[mayesme]

Hey everyone! I'm incredibly excited to be going to Richmond in like a month though definitely starting to get nervous too. I was wondering if anyone has heard anything new on learning the class schedule or having any idea when we might know? I just want to start preparing and getting an idea and while I don't want to read all the books before school I do want to atleast have an idea of a battle plan.

When I was up looking for apartments last week, I stopped by the Admissions office. They told me that the book lists would be released at the beginning of August, and that some of the choices in books for 1L are dependent upon the professor your section is assigned for each subject. I'm still anxious to get the best deals on books and to have everything in line before orientation.

[notlearnedhand]

Hi all! I did very well at Richmond during 1L. I'm willing to answer any reasonable questions about UR via PM.

[hmmhaa77]

Got my section assignment and class schedule today. They also sent a list of all the people entering the class.

[crysmissmichelle]

I did too!

You can find your books on the lawschool bookstore website, choose "LawR" and then all of the 500 level courses. I had to call the bookstore, lol, I was FREAKIN' out.
