It sucks they give out the scholarship money in september after people have already taken out loans and had them dispersed.

It does have bad timing but you can always apply it to the following year's tuition.

I believe most loans have a grace period, usually a few weeks, during which you can return the loan without accruing a penalty.

And I also applied for the program.

Agggh the suspense is killing me. Most winners seem to be attending those schools. Here's hoping it's just because the winners have distinguished credentials and not because of their respective choice in law schools!
