Is that merit or need based?

What other offers do you have? Negotitate. Work your way up and show UVa your best offer.

No way UVA is worth 150k + interest over GULC.

Im in a similar situation (120k), however, I am a little weary at GULCs placement and I would feel much more comfortable at Cornell or NU. Im waiting on their offers before I attempt to get one of them to match.

How do you find out if a Georgetown offer is need or merit based?

Tr3 · Post by **Tr3** » Wed Mar 04, 2015 9:53 am

Im here at CLS! Anyone here?

Hey CB, its merit, but I feel you. I'm excited with the offer, but I emailed Cornell too and I'm hoping for the best because the placement does kind of scare me.

Here's who I left today:

Chicago
Columbia
NYU
Penn
Northwestern
Cornell
Georgetown
Texas
BC
Wake

I hope that me stepping out gets some folks in here who are waiting some calls/some money.

Thanks Cc. With respect to your question..I would pick Yale all day every day over Stanford. It's Yale, man. How does one say no to Yale and not live to regret it?

+1

Forget the warm weather for 3 more years, you'll be fending off CA offers with a freakin' stick. YLS is almost mythical to me

I was going to come, but alas.....work. I'll be there at the next one and then immediately go down to Penn. Nice easy schedule flow.

Awwww. They are on my mainstay list. I Really felt the warmth at their reception. It felt like a family reunion more than anything.

Atmosphere · Post by **Atmosphere** » Wed Mar 04, 2015 5:12 pm

Ill be at the next one too! My pointless midterms are inundating me at the moment

applelover · Post by **applelover** » Wed Mar 04, 2015 8:39 pm

Congrats on all the acceptances! If possible, I definitely recommend attending ASWs. It really impacted law school decision.

Did Cornell already make an offer?

Received a surprisingly good (not great) offer from Chicago today, feel free to PM for details.

Went complete in late November, interviewed mid January, and admitted in the big wave during early February. Didn't have any UR updates until a few days after the interview, however.

Are you still taking questions on Chi?

If so, what was it about visiting Chi that made you want to attend?

Which of these April ASWs do you plan to attend?
