Nope - I took it in October and applied the second week of January. I applied Regular but I do have considerable full-time and part-time work experience while studying, volunteer work, minor academic awards/scholarships, and other lived experiences that probably helped my application.

Applied inclusive - received an offer over the phone earlier today.

Eek so happy to be posting! Just got the call,  83.5% GPA (UBC Scale) with drops ,  164 LSAT (86 percentile). Admissions coordinator stated they were impressed by my personal statement. 

Also have an acceptance from Calgary , going to be debating between the two but will most likely accept UVIC.

I applied under the indigenous category 

[cola]

Got the call shortly after noon today!

LSAT: 166
GPA: hard to calculate in my case, cGPA probably 2.8ish, maybe around 3.4 after drops

Inclusive category

Confirmation/deposit deadline is May 5th. Will accept unless I hear from UBC before then.

If it matters, the "GPA Eval" part is dated April 6th, and my status still says "Application Under Review" lol.

Congrats! As someone with similar stats and still waiting, would you mind sharing when you applied and anything you think might have particularly helped to application to stand out (extra circulars, work experience etc). Thanks!

Thanks! I applied on the deadline and honestly have no idea what stood out. My softs weren't all that unique and none were related to law. That said, I put a lot of work into polishing my PS and I know at least one of my LORs was actually very good. Keeping it brief here but feel free to DM if you want to know more.

Received offer via email.

GPA: 3.85 (self-calculated on UVic 4.33 scale; unsure of accuracy).

LSAT: 166 (Jan 2023; 90th Percentile).

Index score of 931.25 (self-calculated; above the 'auto-admit' threshold).

Applied general. Application submitted at deadline. No updates to file, nor changes to status, until offer received.

Will be accepting but will withdraw should I receive an offer from another school.

[Cpeaks]

@Rae1616did you apply general?

[bamboocrab]

Accepted. Got the call Friday (April 28) afternoon. Very grateful, will be accepting! 

Inclusive applicant. Low cumulative GPA, around 3.0. 165 LSAT. Applied Jan 15. GPA eval appeared 2 days before acceptance. 

My GPA was heavily impacted by an outlier year. Second time applying, really excited. Goodluck to all those still waiting! 

 

[Cpeaks]

@bamboocrab did yours go to decision pending before you found out ?

[gimmeajdplz]

For those who have been offered As recently ... What deadline were you given to accept your offer? Trying to gauge when the next admissions wave would be!

[zebra101]

Was accepted today... back in May I was #42 on the waitlist. Will not be accepting as I am going to UBC. 164 lsat... had a 4.0/4.5 GPA at the UofW...(around an A-)... had some good volunteer experience on my CV.
