Hi! Thank you! No problem sharing.  I applied via the "Special Considerations" stream due to the loss of a parent during my undergrad and official diagnoses of depression, anxiety, and ADHD. I th

Don't worry, the admissions process takes months. TRU typically admits the candidates with the highest GPA/LSAT scores first. Give it until the end of April, at which point TRU usually makes its waitl

I was waitlisted Monday April 29th and just got the call that I was accepted! TRU assigned grade A-, 159 LSAT, Master's degree. Was accepted somewhere closer to home so will likely be declining. The deadline to accept is May 15th.

Accepted a couple of weeks back. 

January LSAT 154

TRU Assigned A+ (4:09/4.33 CGPA) 

General Applicant 

Quite shocked I was straight up accepted with such a poor LSAT. I suppose good references, research experience, and the fact I've been currently working in advising/recruitment at my university helped? 

Just goes to show you never know until you apply! Good luck people!

I was waitlisted on April 29 and just received the offer this Wednesday, May 29!

LSAT: 148

GPA: 3.89 (last 20)

Some notes about my application that I hope can give some context:

  • Graduated in 2014 with a 2.78 GPA in Poli Sci from the UofC
  • Worked as a temp for 3 federal offices for 1.5 years
  • Found full-time employment at a Canadian tech company in 2016. Have been there ever since. Working in Operations-focused roles
  • Joined the Canadian Armed Forces as a Reservist in 2019
  • Went back to the UofC to upgrade my GPA in Fall 2021. Raised my GPA from 2.78 to 3.89.
  • Wrote the LSAT 4 times prior to this application. They took my 148 score. I wrote it again this April and got a 153.

Wishing everyone all the best!

Thank you!

I don't remember when I applied exactly but my "Date Created" on my application says Jan 31, 2024. I don't remember the category either, sorry! Unfortunately, it doesn't say on the application.

Congratulations! I have similar stats to you and am applying for the 2025 cycle. Just curious if you have any work experience/softs in your application that helped you? I'm trying to figure out if I should retake again or focus more on work experience.

Thanks!

Thank you! I do think my softs/work experience helped in my application. I worked at a shelter for Indigenous women, volunteered at a non profit and the courthouse for a couple of years, and was an exec at a social justice club. I also wrote a honours thesis about women and DV. 

If you do have the chance I would say rewrite it as I honestly wasn’t expecting to get in at all and just took my chances. If you have good softs and work experience you’ll have a good shot but the chances will probably increase if you have a higher lsat score. 

Whatever you decide to do good luck!
