Got an email from Florida Coastal that said I can apply free of charge. It also offered me a "potential $30,000 scholarship" to attend.

mine didn't specify the amount, but noted that I could be "potentially receiving a scholarship" (currently 27 pts above their LSAT median); thanks florida coastal!

Nice, successfully solicited a waiver from a school that others in this thread have as well. Thanks again for the help, all. Is it customary to reply with a one line thank you note, or no need?

hillz · Post by **hillz** » Tue Sep 16, 2014 3:06 pm

I think most people will say no need because it just clogs up their inbox.

hillz · Post by **hillz** » Tue Sep 16, 2014 3:10 pm

But it does seem weird not to say thank you!

RSN · Post by **RSN** » Tue Sep 16, 2014 3:19 pm

Agreed, I had both of those thoughts. Don't want to be impolite but don't want to send them an unnecessary email either.

I did out of habit, but it's not a make or break situation. Good job on the waivers!

"I encourage you to apply today to attend Barry University School of Law in Orlando, Florida. It is FREE to apply and there are scholarships and grants available to 100% of our incoming students."

It's SO FREE that we have to use all caps.

Oh my god, I love getting these emails. It feels good to watch rats scurry about a sinking ship trying to find a way to survive.

Former Americorps alum here. Soliciting waivers on that basis (no lsat score yet).

A few of the T-14 schools had slightly ambiguous policies.

Solicited
NYU (Pending, ambiguous policy)
UVa (Received, ambiguous policy for alums)
Penn (Pending, unambiguous)

I'll probably do the rest of the top 14 that allow for waivers of some kind on the basis of at least Teach For America/Peacecorps. Curious to see if a school like Cornell and NYU that waive for other non-Americorps programs will waive for Americorps too.
