Law School

Wow - Tulane reall has decreased their enrollment.
That is good news for the school - it had too many students.

You have time to visit the schools, and that is more important than talk about connections and other stuff IMO. All that stuff really does work itself out. My advice is don;t worry about it too much. Visit the schools, pick the one you like the most and stop thinking about it. You really can't go wrong with any of the 3.

Enrollment isn't down, just the number of applicants. It also doesn't look like the quality of the incoming classes have dropped if you look at 25-75% GPA and LSAT.

It does mean that there is less competition for scholarships and such, and that they have to entice students to come. It's a buyers market right now, which really helped me because, as I previously said, I wouldn't have been in line for the offer I got before Katrina.
