Good luck! Doctoroff is great for a business focus. I had a business background and wished I did it.zeglo wrote:I sent my application already. However, I got no confirmation email. It's probably because it's not yet September 1.
Also, I was a business major and am currently a financial analyst, so Doctoroff looks legit.

You're fine . I won't speak for admissions but I didn't follow directions and here I am so you should be good to go.zeglo wrote:Thanks! And I have a question - I forgot to put the hours per week for activities on my resume (as is requested on the application). I later emailed Chicago about this with an attached resume. They said thanks as a response. This won't be a deal-breaker, right? I failed to follow directions, so my transmitted resume won't be exactly formatted how they requested. I am probably overreacting?KMart wrote:Good luck! Doctoroff is great for a business focus. I had a business background and wished I did it.zeglo wrote:I sent my application already.

how different are employment outcomes/opporunities at Chicago from Harvard? I doubt sticker price at H is better than $$ at UChi but idk.

Re: Chicago C/O 2020 Applicants (2016-2017)
We send more people to big law. If that's what you want, you should come here given sticker at H and $$ at Chi. That being said not everyone goes big law and you can certainly go other places, but it's pretty easy to do (something like >75% of our class).proteinshake wrote:how different are employment outcomes/opporunities at Chicago from Harvard?

If I'm gunning for money at Chicago, is it worth it to write a Why Chicago letter?

If you've got a good, legitimate reason, I'd say go for it. It can't really hurt, but it could help.SweetTort wrote:If I'm gunning for money at Chicago, is it worth it to write a Why Chicago letter?

+1. Just make sure it's actually sincere otherwise skip it.Nothing but the Funk wrote:If you've got a good, legitimate reason, I'd say go for it. It can't really hurt, but it could help.SweetTort wrote:If I'm gunning for money at Chicago, is it worth it to write a Why Chicago letter?

So, if they already sent me a fee waiver code on request, and I just got that unsolicited fee waiver email too, should I expect a check in the mail for $75?

Re: Chicago C/O 2020 Applicants (2016-2017)
Also received a fee waiver!
Speaking of money, does anyone know the status of the Rubenstein for C/O 2020? Chicago's webpage about the Ruby only mentions that the gift funds through C/O 2019.
There's no way in hell I'd get it, but thinking more broadly, I wonder what kind of implications that would have on the overall pool of money available for applicants this year. Anyone have some insight here?

No to the last three posts (too lazy to quote) - sorry I don't know more about the Ruby.

Re: Chicago C/O 2020 Applicants (2016-2017)
Does anyone know what the deal is with the question asking what othe schools I'm applying to?
Would it look bad to leave it blank?
Would it be okay to answer because all the schools I'm applying to are columbia and the ones ranked lower than Uchi?
I can understand why cornell would want people to tell them, since a lot of people who are overqualified blanket the t14 and apply to cornell, but it doesn't make as much sense for uchi.

Just be honest. That's the ethically correct thing to do and it's not a big deal anyway.LawschoolHopeful2k16 wrote:Does anyone know what the deal is with the question asking what othe schools I'm applying to?
