This episode dives into the emotional and strategic challenges of law school admissions—navigating waitlists, scholarship negotiations, and making the final choice.

Shana and Trudel break down why the waitlist process feels like modern dating—schools won’t commit, but they won’t rule you out either. The conversation covers: ✔️ The shifting power of scholarship negotiations based on your acceptance status. ✔️ Letters of Continued Interest—how to craft them strategically. ✔️ Beyond tuition—cost of living, hidden expenses, and financial aid considerations. ✔️ Making your best law school choice by leveraging professor Q&A, admitted students' days, and alumni insights.

With humor, candid insights, and personal anecdotes—including a well-loved Yale mug—this episode delivers practical advice for applicants still waiting on decisions or weighing scholarship offers.
