Question for you... is your 99k scholarship guaranteed or is there a stipulation per year? I got a $35,000 scholarship/year but it's contingent on being above median. Also, congrats!tolson1 wrote:Woot!!
I was accepted to IU early december.. Received an envelope this morning offering a 33k (99k total) out of state scholarship! The school seems very promising and I will most likely be going next year. I'm sorry if this has already been addressed, but the school recently changed its name? I was also wondering if someone could give some feedback on how the reputation of IU is (in Indianapolis and Indiana), I imagine that Bloomington is somewhat more reputable given how much higher its ranked.
Thank you guys (and gals), and I hope you all can get accepted into your dream school!
That's the same scholarship I have- BE CAREFUL GUYS- it is HARD to keep a 3.0.tolson1 wrote:Woot!!

Ditto. Applied to way too many schools, I imagine that another scholly as large as this won't surface.. Would love to go somewhere southpatrickj11288 wrote:My guess is that a 3.0 is about the median, as I think it is at many other schools. Has this scholarship information pretty much sealed the deal for anyone else? I think Im probably going to IU-Indy in the fall but am going to wait untill I hear back on scholarship info from the schools ive alrdy been accepted to as well.

Haha we do! We must be in the same group. And I feel like our stats are similar, don't know if I saw that in some post or if I'm just making it up. But best of luck to both of us!neeko wrote:Me.puremorning wrote:Hm. My status still says in review, but the date has changed to today's date. Has this happened to anyone else?
We've got a lot of the same stuff happening at our schools !
For 1L classes it is supposed to be "between 2.9 and 3.1" so yeah, 3.0. I ended up doing pretty well (about top 25%) but I know a lot of people who are going to lose their scholarships if they get below a 3.0 next semester too.patrickj11288 wrote:My guess is that a 3.0 is about the median, as I think it is at many other schools.

Oh boo neeko! We're not on the same track anymore! Mine is still at 1/20. But I'm still hoping for a decision soon...neeko wrote:How many date changed did everyone have before they got a decision? Mine changed again from 1/20 to 1/24
Oh no! Now I feel like my date change does not mean good things!puremorning wrote:Oh boo neeko! We're not on the same track anymore! Mine is still at 1/20.

Maybe it just means that our applications have split ways and are now housed in two separate decision-making rooms. And that we will still get an acceptance on the same day AND money.neeko wrote:Oh no! Now I feel like my date change does not mean good things!puremorning wrote:Oh boo neeko!

I am sure that isn't the case! In theory they shouldn't even look at your numbers prior to putting you in the stack for review.thegoodpart wrote:I feel like my average stats are pushing my app to the bottom of the pile....this wait is exhausting lol
They basically don't grant in-state residency to people originally out of state.tolson1 wrote:Michaela wrote:That's the same scholarship I have- BE CAREFUL GUYS- it is HARD to keep a 3.0.tolson1 wrote:Woot!!

People in Indiana have no idea what rankings are and probably view the two schools as equal (only putting Bloomington a little higher because it is...Bloomington). The lawyers in this state are a mix of both. Obviously I'm biased but I like my school a lot!
Yes the school received a huuuuuge donation and changed it's name. All on the IndyLaw website. Congrats!
Hey I have a question for you, to maintain your scholarship you have to remain an out of state resident, right? Do you live on campus then, or do you have an apartment? I don't understand why they would want you to remain an out of state resident and why they wouldn't just compensate you for the difference (give you less $ when in state to equal the same amount you pay).
