Update...
I got dinged from Indiana-Bloomington and American University. Didn't really care about Indiana. Despite being highly ranked, it seems as if their grads don't really break into the Mid-Atlantic/North-East big-law legal markets - both of which (kind of job and region) will be the main factors in my decision.
I was a bit perplexed with American. I suppose it wasn't exactly a target or safety. In all honestly, it was prob a bit of a reach. But for some reason I felt I would at least get a waitlist.
Ah well. To every ying, there is a yang. I was accepted to Penn State, University of Baltimore (prob withdraw), and Temple University. I am very excited about Temple. They also awarded a $12k/yr scholarship contingent on a 2.5 gpa (Temple has a 2.85 curve). This is almost the exact offer Pitt awarded, but with a conditional GPA. I am continuing to research everything about each school, their programs, legal markets, placement, cost of living, etc. It's going to be a tough decision, for sure.
I'm still waiting to hear from my top choices as I fill out FAFSA stuff and get my taxes in order. Gluck to all.
