Same question in regards to transcripts

Has anyone successfully solicited a fee waiver? and how did you go about it?

Have you tried googling? It's on their website how to do it

If you apply through the school's proprietary app on its website (as opposed to applying through LSAC), they wave the fee.

There is a fee waiver request form on their website. Just fill that out and give them a day or two and they should send you an email back with one.

Do any ED applicants know what the school means when it says that the application must be submitted by Jan. 5, but all supporting documents must be on file by Jan. 12? Which of the supporting documents are they referring to? I'm nervous that one of my LORs may not be submitted by Friday...

I was able to get one hassle free. I think I just submitted the fee waiver application on the NDLS website and they gave me a code via email. It's very easy and quick.

I think it basically means that you have to have hit the submit button by 1/5, and they have to have everything that would cause the app to be considered complete by 1/12. As long as you get the LOR in by the 12th I think you'll be ok.

That's my interpretation as well - glad it's not just me. I guess I'll still reach out to admissions to be safe.

It's getting to the point where I'm considering emailing them. I don't want to email unnecessarily and be annoying, but this is getting a bit frustrating.
I haven't heard anything (no date change, no nothing) since the end of October. I haven't considered emailing them because applicants and applications are up so it seems just normal for them to be slower than usual. I don't think emailing them is going to help.

Date just changed. I'm now kind of excited mixed with feeling like an ass about my previous post.

Good luck everyone! I bet good news is coming for everyone soon!

My date changed. Does anyone know about how long we should expect to wait until we get a decision?
