Any other splitters ur2 today? I did. 3.25/177. Don't know what to think, but im excited about anything but a ding.

UR2 today, no interview

Complete 1/24
UR1: 3/1
UR2: 3/27

Also UR2 3/27. Don't know what it means, but glad to hear MOTM got the same. But whatever it means, pro-tip for future applicants: don't just list the other schools in the t14 under the "To which other schools did you apply?" question.

I don't think that's necessarily verified. I listed a few schools - both above, same tier, and below in ranking - and I got in. Several people in this thread have had similar experiences.

What I mean is, I listed all and only of them. Cause I'm honest. And stupid.

And yeah I know it probably doesn't matter much.

Hmmm, I think they only use that question to see how you view yourself as an applicant comparatively.

But yeah, seems like a lot of movement to UR2 today, am I the only one of us who was UR1 on 3/17?

I was UR1 3/17 and went to UR2 today... given the scores we're seeing associated with this movement, seems like it should be a good sign... I hope?

I got 60k!!!

wow, seriously in disbelief. I didn't think my numbers were going to get me any aid.

so ridiculously excited right now, this all but seals my attendance.

I don't see this mentioned anywhere else, but it looks like Chicago will start giving out Cafaros to replace the Ruby!!!

Apparently a few will be given out THIS cycle, which is great news for those above the LSAT/GPA medians.

The Carafos scholarship is pretty different from the Rubenstein. It is for students with financial need, whereas the Rubenstein is a straight-up merit scholarship, and there will only be a few given out every year, unlike the 20 or so Rubenstein scholarships given out every year.

Whoops, you're right! Thank you for clarifying.

So do we think they'll release decisions this Friday? I jumped the gun and got way too excited last Friday after my second post-interview status update.

[tirakon]

Are Rubies ever given out this late in the cycle?

Also UR2 today. So I guess it's worth asking, are there any March URs that didn't get UR2 today?

ETA: my numbers definitely aren't auto-admit either.

I did not update to UR2 today and I went UR1 on 3/1.

im still UR1 at 3/1. ~ 171/4

are these pre-interview UR2's likely to result in admit/interview/waitlist/reject or is this unchartered territory?

I think one person in this thread reported WL after a pre-interview UR2.

I'm thinking yes, I have 75% on tomorrow and 25% on Wednesday next week.

ETA: stupid question, you just got it yesterday. Don't mind me, this is not the thread I belong in

Do you have a link back to where this discussion is? I looked in the applicants and admits threads, but didn't find. Thanks.
