How much of an uphill battle is it to jump to another STL law firm with yucky second semester grades? Please do not quote.

^ Probably depends on if you have ties and whether you are trying to make a Spencer Fane-> Dowd Bennett move or an Armstrong Teasdale to Husch move.

Anyone have any thoughts on Richards' Information Privacy Law class? What is the workload like? The alternative is Osgood's Trusts and Estates.

Re: WUSTL Recent Grad (and others) Taking Questions
How hard would it be to find a place to live if I just showed up in the beginning of August without having signed a lease yet? Particularly if I was looking to live with roommate(s), in the Debaliviere or University City area?

Re: WUSTL Recent Grad (and others) Taking Questions
Might be harder with the roommates bit, I'm really not sure. But generally speaking it is very easy to find housing in STL on short notice in most parts of town. Beginning of August isn't even that short of notice, in fact.frozen_tundra9 wrote:How hard would it be to find a place to live if I just showed up in the beginning of August without having signed a lease yet?

Recommend taking Osgood's Trust & Estate while it's available. Richards is fantastic but teaches Privacy fairly regularly, and the chances to take a class with Osgood (Wash U's best prof imo) are few and far between.G41u5 wrote:Anyone have any thoughts on Richards' Information Privacy Law class?

Interested in responses to this as well, if anyone has two cents to throw in. I just signed a lease there.spacebro wrote:Hey guys,

That's a new building, right? Delmar is a very heavily trafficked area and well policed; you should be safe there. I would be careful about venturing either North or East more than a few blocks, though.
It's very convenient, and Delmar is great. I think it's a fine place to live.

Location is good since there is a shuttle to campus.littlekidlover wrote:Interested in responses to this as well, if anyone has two cents to throw in. I just signed a lease there.spacebro wrote:Hey guys,

However for the price range and similar amenities, it probably would be better to live in the Koman development in CWE. For this building, you will be paying 1.5-2x more than living in an apartment closer to school.

Thanks for the responses! Agree that it probably wasn't the cheapest option, but the whole package checked off a lot of boxes for me.
Also, I read most of this enormous thread to get a sense of WashU Law, so thanks to everyone who kept things entertaining. Looking forward to the fall!

Given the recent restrictions on parking availability, if you didn't get a parking permit via the lottery, I can imagine parking being a pain.bwaldorf wrote:How annoying will the commute from downtown be?
Other than that, you'd have to deal with rush hour sometimes, but STL rush hour is nowhere near as bad as major city rush hour.

Thanks! I did get a parking permit but wooooow is it expensive! The one I had for undergrad was 1/10th of the price.PeanutsNJam wrote:Given the recent restrictions on parking availability, if you didn't get a parking permit via the lottery, I can imagine parking being a pain.bwaldorf wrote:How annoying will the commute from downtown be?

Re: WUSTL Recent Grad (and others) Taking Questions
I lived downtown during 1L - would have hated it without my car and parking permit. With those two though, I really liked it. More bang for your buck space wise than around campus and plenty of food and such around. Definitely look before jumping in though - some areas are a bit sketch, but there's some really nice buildings.bwaldorf wrote:How annoying will the commute from downtown be?
Public transit can work - but it's not a fun commute when carrying textbooks. It would have been better if I had been closer to the stop though.
Worth noting - if you're younger and/or single, campus area is probably a better bet. I moved there with my SO and so missing out on some of the nearby social scene didn't hurt.

Re: WUSTL Recent Grad (and others) Taking Questions
Hey guys! I'm an incoming 1L. So from what I've found online, it looks like I wont find out my class schedule, section or professors until August. Is there anything I can be doing to prepare for the semester until then? I'd like to start getting my books as well, but I will need my courses to do that. Id' appreciate any tips you have!

Re: WUSTL Recent Grad (and others) Taking Questions
Not much you can do. Standard advice is to read Getting to Maybe, but even then I don't think it's that valuable until you have a more solid understanding of how law school works. I understand the nagging feeling to "do something" in preparation, but I would take this last month to fully enjoy yourself. Coming in with a rested, fresh mind is probably the best thing you can do for yourself.jhc14 wrote:Hey guys! I'm an incoming 1L.

I would second this. Relax and enjoy your summer. I know it's not a satisfying answer, but it's the right answer.acr wrote:Not much you can do.

Re: WUSTL Recent Grad (and others) Taking Questions
lol 1.96? Not even sure that's possible. Might be a typo by the registrar (i.e. should be 2.96?) but idk. I feel like you would have to write something deliberately insulting and off topic to get a freakin 1.96 at wash u

Isn't 2.5 the lowest you can get, after which you get an F? Not sure though.
