It's apparently at the Moonrise ironically :pT00L wrote:To everyone going to the ASD this weekend:
1) Get shitty in the Moonrise for me

I think if you've gone to LSN and sorted by LSAT/GPA and found people close to you you probably have as good an idea of what you're getting as anyone else here.

Anyways, I was wondering about the scholarships. In particular, are their scholarships like their regular admissions (i.e. very splitter friendly) or will GPA be very important. I've gone to LSN, and it seems like the results are mixed, so I was wondering if there is another variable there (work experience, for example) that is playing a major role in the scholarship amounts. I'd love to go to Wash U, but the reality is that it probably isn't feasible without a $15,000+ per year scholarship.
I went and looked at the 167/3.7x range - and it seemed to be bimodal with either no scholarship or 114k on LSN. I didn't see a pattern as to who got the schollie and who didn't.tmon wrote:I think if you've gone to LSN and sorted by LSAT/GPA and found people close to you you probably have as good an idea of what you're getting as anyone else here.

That's strange. When I looked up my numbers I was like 90% of what I'd get, and that's what I ended up with. You might want to check the profiles of people who didn't list a scholarship with your numbers. People often omit it, so I basically treated all profiles without an amount as being omitted.Randomnumbers wrote:I went and looked at the 167/3.7x range - and it seemed to be bimodal with either no scholarship or 114k on LSN.

Yes, it did. It was very nonchalant, though. It said "Based on your excellent record, the Scholarship Committee is considering your file for one of our Scholars in Law Awards" at the end of the first paragraph. I didn't even notice it until I saw people talking about it in this thread.jdhopefully wrote:NCB166 wrote:I got in today. I had a 167/3.7X, so I figured I was the classic bubble student.

NCB166 - did your acceptance email have any mention in it about scholarship/further consideration for them? I'm just wondering because mine did not, nor did someone else's that also received their acceptance yesterday...
