my chance on merit-based aid Forum

[hangooknome]

hey guys quick question on my chances of getting merit-based aid from a couple of my tarted law school
id highly appreciate if you guys can help me out a little here!
So, main reason that i'm concerned about getting a merit-based aid is that
I'm a poor international student, my parents no longer have money to support me because
both of them had to go through a couple of surgeries recently.

I graduated from UCLA as a political science major with 3.64 GPA and received 161 on the LSAT
worked at the middle size law firm for a year after the graduation and currently
serving in the Korean Air Force in order to complete my 2 year duty.

I really want to go to either Loyola Law School (Los Angeles) or Pepperdine Law School
any opinions on my chances of getting merit-based scholarship?

There is an online predictor for this. It's likely not accurate, but it will give you an idea.

How much did you study for that first test? I would recommend a retake. You would have a lot to gain from a few more points.

The site's pretty inaccurate for monetary aid, OP, but seems pretty okay for acceptance/rejection. Try browsing Law School Numbers as well.

And echo what gentlemanscholar said--consider retaking the LSAT.
