Yep. Two weeks ago I was wondering whether or not they would even accept me.

Congrats! That's awesome. I'd love the same package you just got offered! But at this rate it looks like I'm a WL.

169 and a 3.3 LSAC gpa (I graduated with a 3.7 but college classes I took in HS made that gpa plummet).

damn, congratulations.

Awesome BigBlueLaw, congrats!

Thanks and good luck to everyone else waiting!

Haven't been able to get a definitive answer on this: what has been the average lag time between acceptance and scholarship? And if you DON'T get a scholarship, is there a way to find that out? Or are you just left in limbo?

Has anyone received scholarship offer after the initial admit package? Mine didn't mention scholarship. My numbers are both at/above 75th percentile.

Cheers!

Still stuck at 12/6…I updated my transcripts a few weeks ago, could this have something to do with the extra long wait? Probably not…

cstan · Post by **cstan** » Fri Jan 13, 2012 11:09 pm

congrats Blue!

yeah its really weird about the scholarships...it seemed like in December people that were admitted either got their scholarship offers in the initial packet or a few days later. But now it seems like a lot of people are waiting for offers.

I'm 169/3.6 and still waiting

Worker and Parasite · Post by **Worker and Parasite** » Sat Jan 14, 2012 1:38 am

I've got similar stats and I would love that 25k/year. That probably would solidify BU as my school

I also want to point out the irony of the NY sports fan getting the nice scholly to a Boston school...At least you don't go for the Jets

Oh ouch... we'll see if you're still talking after Tebow walks all over the Pats tonight (ok, I don't actually believe that'll happen lol)

Applied in Dec.; Got a phone call last week; Admissions package came yesterday with 35k per yr scholly...no lag time at all between acceptance and scholarship--for me, at least.

It's looking more and more like we're on the WL. Not exactly sure why. No 12/6ers that I know of (besides TheLong, and he's a special snowflake) have numbers that point to a YP.
