Feels kind of piddly in comparison to their $210k total CoA.JTMan wrote:saito816 wrote:This is what I received as well, stats are in profile.bk187 wrote:Regular decision admit. Merit info in envelope with acceptance packet. Stats:

That's what I got too......167/3.88/Non-URM/WE
I mean, it's nice, but I meant that I don't think even $100k is enough to sway someone from a low T14 to go to GW.JTMan wrote:Well remember their max scholarship is full TUITION right? $43,000*3 = $129,000 so personally I am actually quite happy for us.
You may think that. Others may not. I'm personally not planning on going into Biglaw. I would DEFINITELY go to GW with $100k scholarship over GULC at sticker.bk187 wrote:I mean, it's nice, but I meant that I don't think even $100k is enough to sway someone from a low T14 to go to GW.JTMan wrote:Well remember their max scholarship is full TUITION right? $43,000*3 = $129,000 so personally I am actually quite happy for us.

We can each have our opinions, that doesn't mean yours is DEFINITELY right.
Anyone who applied ED and got accepted pretty much defies this logic.bk187 wrote:I mean, it's nice, but I meant that I don't think even $100k is enough to sway someone from a low T14 to go to GW.JTMan wrote:Well remember their max scholarship is full TUITION right? $43,000*3 = $129,000 so personally I am actually quite happy for us.
ED get almost 15k/year more than what I got. They end up with $70k worth of debt, I would end up in $105k worth of debt. $105k isn't a small enough, I think, to justify attending a lower ranked school.JakeL wrote:Anyone who applied ED and got accepted pretty much defies this logic.

105k with no employment prospects is a lot more than 210k with a chance at high paying prospects. But that's still definitely a bit simplified. I'd definitely go to, say, NYU sticker over GW with that scholarship. On the other hand with GULC sticker its a tossup.magicman554 wrote:bk187 wrote:ED get almost 15k/year more than what I got.

FACEPALM
I initially facepalmed you for your assertion that an ED to GWU would end up with $70k worth of debt (which is ludicrous unless they have a drug addiction, or a gambling problem, or something). But now you get facepalmed for your exaggerated claim that GWU grads will have "105k with no employment prospects." What this has to do with EDs at GWU I can't tell, but your "no employment prospects" bull is totally mistaken. May not be as great as NYU, but you're exaggerating.Arbiter213 wrote:105k with no employment prospects is a lot more than 210k with a chance at high paying prospects.

Firstly, that's not me. He already admitted to exaggerating... how dense are you? As for me, 105k with little chance at something other than a 60k salary seems meh.magicman554 wrote:I initially facepalmed you for your assertion that an ED to GWU would end up with $70k worth of debt (which is ludicrous unless they have a drug addiction, or a gambling problem, or something).
