In at Stanford! Forum

wow! look at Herb's new Avatar. And he is posting in a humane manner. I guess that Yale acceptance has got him feeling good.

It's like an extremist version of the Managamy shift.

managamy is now cardinal rule is that right?

[heyguys]

Well, just took a look at my award letter. Stanford cordially invites me to take out $70k+ in loans ... per year!



Putting my withdrawal form in the mail tomorrow. Enjoy Palo Alto, y'all.

If SLS gave you nothing HLS sure isn't going to give you anything either.

Credited--Yale either. SLS was the most generous to me on the need-based aid. YLS was close second, and HLS...well....they weren't even seriously in the running.

Bizarre to see Herb farting rainbows these days.

Eh, I think that it's OK, Crack, but I appreciate the thought. Most people seem to have progressed beyond the brouhaha now, thankfully.

Back in my reprobate days, I derailed far more threads than Herb with far greater regularity.

I don't think you'll ever completely leave those days behind:-)

Finaid from Stanford. Life just got complicated again. C.f. Kretzy's posts on same. I am stunned.

I just got an e-mail stating that my award letter is ready. Does it really take 24 hours for me to get my account?

It's been taking between 2-4 hours for folks signing up now; I did it in Feb and it took about 8 hours.

It took a half hour for mine to be set up. I spent another 20min searching for the right link.

I'm going to take that comment as a compliment.

did yale undershoot your offer from SLS? i'd be very impressed if stanford outdoes my YLS package.

Does "Stanford Law School" show up on anyone else's gchat list?

[adameus]

are they online? If so, myself and a few hundred other TLS'ers would like to know the status of our application

They most certainly are online. Or at least they were until a minute ago. It's why I posted.

[adameus]

hmm, you should try saying Hello, see if they respond.

[crackberry]

I will next time I notice they are online.

seeing that it appears they are on vacation this week, it was probably just the school janitor using the computer to look at naughty things. either that or he was using the computer to solve incredibly hard math problems.

Update: SLS gave me nearly twice the grants that YLS did, and when I asked YLS to match, i was completely turned down. Turns out they calculate expected contributions VERY differently (read: SLS does so far more kindly). Stanford just shot up 1,000,000 in my esteem.

Or maybe emailing Minnie Driver.
