They offered me nothing, odd given other offers received. Oh well.

[NYYNYR]

Just got my email (submitted scholly app last week). Got $0, low GPA high LSAT splitter with w/e.

$0 club! At least they sent emails instead of keeping us in limbo until we got the hint...

How kind of them.

Is there anyway to negotiate up from 0? "I'll take 50 cents!"

[LoganCouture]

So I didn't get a "$0" email but I also have yet to receive any kind of communication re: an award. Submitted NeedAccess in early Feb and scholarship app on time...

Johann knows there isn't enough money to get you to leave CA for Chicago. Especially with you have HYS options.

[DiniMae]

Well, I just withdrew. I hope my $$$ frees up some for others. Good luck, everyone.

Honestly. Just give me SOMETHING so I can tell TLS that I didn't go at sticker

Has anyone tried and/or been successful in negotiating yet?

I asked them to consider giving me a stipend

My thoughts exactly...Let's send them this note and see what happens. They may sympathize.

I booked my train tickets for ASW today. Bringing my swimsuit, I hear Lake Michigan is nice this time of year.

[Shelbinole]

Just withdrew, hope one of you gets my $$. Good luck everybody! (:

No way! It's still way too cold for me.

I wasn't being serious haha. I might try wading in it if it was 70+ degrees outside but it's way too cold right now.

ASW Polar Plunge?

Speedos or GTFO, MIRITE?

Do you think we can use dying of hypothermia as leverage in scholarship negotiations with NW?

[FloridaCoastalorbust]

too lazy to research - do they offer travel stipends for ASW?

[ILoveYou]

Yes, but I don't know when the deadline for them is/was. I think it's $400 if you fly in. $250 if you fly in from more than 600 miles away

I think it's $250 but you have to be flying in from 400+ miles away or something.

As for the polar plunge leverage... imagine if NU had an event where the 0L who stayed submerged up to their neck in Lake Michigan the longest got a full ride scholarship. Seems like a fun, totally safe promotion.
