Need based DOLLAS

Post by PuertoBlack » Thu Oct 31, 2013 12:30 pm

Hey errybody. Quick question:

What do those need-based scholly's look like from the top 20 on down? Anyone have one? Anyone know how much they can expect to receive if FAFSA EFC is 0 or damn near close?

Thanks!

Shite. The most need-based aid I've ever seen someone receive outside of HYS was one person got 8k a year at Berkeley.

Do well on the LSAT, cop dat merit based scholarship money.

Other than at Yale, Harvard, and Stanford, need-based aid is extremely rare. You could get lucky somewhere, but chances are it's going to be a "merit-based" scholarship or nothing at all.
