Will a school do this?

Post by Volo » Wed Mar 24, 2010 10:19 pm

If I receive a scholarship for a school due to my numbers being above their 75th but decide not to take it in hopes of retaking the LSAT and reapplying the following year will said law school not offer me the same scholarship the 2nd time around out of spite?

Not if they are acting professionally. Are you retaking in June. If so then why not accept. then only reapply if you do significantly better. People have been known to do worse the second time.

Schools do like to know however about upcoming LSATs. Their being blindsided by a lower 2nd score may not help your cause...
