Top Law Schools

So here's the deal:

Duke already sent out its FinAid decision by the time I received Cornell's, but it still hasn't reached me at my international address (has been 2 wks already). I suspect that their offer would not be as high as Cornell's because I was accepted off their priority reserve. Duke's deposit deadline is Apr.29 and it requires me to withdraw from all acceptances so I need to decide soon.

I want to call Duke tomorrow and try to find out how much (if any) $ I'm getting, would they release such info over the phone, or should I just wait for the letter? And is it too late to negotiate at this time?

Or perhaps I should ask for an extension to the deposit until the FinAid decision arrives?

any help would be appreciated!

Call them and ask for info. It can't hurt you.

As for asking for a deposit you can try. Do it over email. I don't know how successful you will be (I tried to GWU and they flat out denied me).

Call is better I think.

I got an extra 10 days at one school because I called and explained that I got my financial info only a couple days before the deadline. Can't hurt to ask!

Call is TCR.
