Hi everyone!

just wondering if anyone admitted to Ottawa has had some similar stats:

157 lsat 

OLSAS CGPA 3.63

B2: 3.88

thoughts?

thank you and good luck to everyone!

Hi Lawhopeful,

I am by no means an expert as I am an applicant myself. I got waitlisted for Windsor, an offer from Ryerson and an Offer from Ottawa (got the notification today and will be accepting it). I by no means have stellar stats but I'll tell you what I have for transparency as it could give you and others some hope:

Undergrad in Engineering & Management - 3.3 GPA for every year (I'm guessing that's what a 8-9 average translates to from a 12 point scale), by Ryerson's calculations I have an A average though so keep that in mind

159 LSAT

Finishing my last semester a Master (Masters?) of Public Policy and Administration (A average but they don't count those towards your gpa calculation)

Excellent ECs and 20 months of co-op experience from both degrees.

Applied through the Access category.

I do want to preface this by saying I know people with worse stats than me who have gotten into Ottawa U and those with superior stats and being in the access category as well who did not get in.

Hi! 

Congratulations on your acceptances—that’s awesome! Thanks so much for all of this info, it’s super helpful and comforting. I’ve also been waitlisted at Windsor so far but haven’t received any other responses, so I’m hoping to hear back from Ryerson and Ottawa soon. 

thanks again and good luck at uOttawa!

looks good

Ottawa is GPA school. 157 is a borderline. 

 I got in 10 years ago with 161 and 3.47. Good luck.

May be a post April offer. but 157 is a bit tough.

I'd give you a 90% chance.

Thanks for your thoughts, everyone. Fingers crossed.
