Got it. Alright, makes that decision much easier. I'll still go visit though, just in case I love it there.

Yeah but the TFA is only for "up to five qualified applicants." I guess I don't fit the bill.

The best part of their no-money email was their excitement in offering me a loan package. You mean you're going to let me apply for various federal loans! Well shucks, you shouldn't have!

No harm no foul...it would likely have been Columbia even with $$, but it's always nice to be asked.

+1. Not that I was expecting money from Chicago, but their enthusiasm for Fed Loans is funny.
This pretty much seals the deal for me. Hello Ann Arbor! :mrgreen:

90k. A nice offer but I'll probably be declining. Good luck to those still waiting.

I know I totally got excited when I read the line "we would like to offer you a loan package that will cover the cost of attending the Law School" and I was like :o Then the next paragraph..."Though we are unable to offer you a scholarship or grant funds" and I was like :cry:

Haha are you saying I should be disappointed? I felt like anything was pretty good with my numbers, although idk that I want to take on this kind of debt.. not really sure how to feel at this point.

I mean I'm sport 30K in undergrad debt so that offer does nothing for me. I was honestly surprised I even got in and I suppose I should be grateful (and I am), but I just can't afford that. I hope it works out for you.

Yep I'm grateful for it but I'm with you- not sure I can stomach the debt. I'll visit and decide later? lol

Got my offer yesterday after two hours of freaking out (will tell the story later but right now I'm at the beach!) and it's DEFINITELY Chicago for me! :D :D :D

I'm kind of weird about debt - I think it's really personal to know how much I'll be taking out in loans - so I won't be sharing the exact amount of my scholarship here or via PM, just as a heads up. <3 y'all and congrats to the others who were as pleased as I was!!

Barring some crazy development in my cycle, I'll be in Hyde Park this year.

Has anyone looked at their academic calendar yet? They start so late in September, which is wild to me.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
