Trust me, I have no idea. I wasn't expecting money with my GPA. I had way too much fun in my first two years of school to have rational hope for a scholly. It could be their cutoff number (or something like that) for the LSAT, but I doubt it has to do with me being cooler than you haha.Gamecock227 wrote:erw0331 wrote:I think it depends on the percentage of your tuition covered by scholarship. My scholly covers half of my oos fee as opposed to many of you who have all or almost all waived, so therefore my stipulation is less stringent. That being said, I would assume that however many have at least half of their tuition covered by scholly or all of their oos covered by it have that top 33% stipulation. I know it's not an exact number, but I hope that helps...Gamecock227 wrote:How many of incoming 1Ls would one suspect to have a 33% or higher stipulation?
I would say we have close to even numbers you have 1 pt higher LSAT I'm .2 higher gpa. I would love a half fee waiver, would you say you have amazing softs or are alot
Cooler than me? Lol or did you go complete way early in the cycle?
Also did anyone else get the email for April 11th visiting day. Didn't they just have a visiting day?

Re: LSU 2011
If the director of admissions calls your house after you've been admitted...is that a good thing or a bad thing? I suppose I will find out when I return the call tomorrow, just looking for any insight.

I actually got waitlisted, got a response via e-mail as my status checked merely said "Decision has been made". I thought I got accepted because all my options in PAWS expanded and I figured it was because I got accepted.aweckerly wrote:prea5356 wrote:Awwww man I just got waitlisted! this sucks!bumbumbum87 wrote:Just got accepted

There's still hope, though! Will you be sending a letter of continued interest to LSU?

I was notified via email that I was waitlisted and the status checker just said that a "decision has been made" and to "check your email" blah! sucks

Re: LSU 2011
I just got offered a scholarship at the University of South Carolina: does anyone believe that it's a good enough school to use in negotiatingwith LSU?

It couldn't hurt, IMO. It may not go over since SC is outside of the top 100, but you'd be in the same position you're in now if LSU said "No."Gamecock227 wrote:I just got offered a scholarship at the University of South Carolina: does anyone believe that it's a good enough school to use in negotiatingwith LSU?

Having coffee with the Chancellor on Wednesday in Shreveport. Is anyone else going to be there?
Edit: Nevermind. Dean of Admissions called today and the meeting was cancelled.

Re: LSU 2011
I'm pretty new to TLS, but I've been watching this thread for a while. I was wondering does LSU give any real weight to LOCIs for their waitlisted students? I'm sending my LOCI anyway but I was just curious to see if anyone had a better insight into the way LSU does their business. Thanks!

Not really. They're really just by numbers like most law 2nd tier law schools with waitlists. Can't hurt though.Tmann3319 wrote:I'm pretty new to TLS, but I've been watching this thread for a while.

Yeah, I was WL'ed but still got the e-mail. I just assumed everyone who was WL'ed would receive it; and obviously, if you were admitted, you were going to get it.cartercl wrote:Yep.
