Anyone request fee waiver from BU?
Hi
After requesting a fee waiver from BU last year, I received it no problem.
With enhanced credentials and same lsat score, they said they do not give out merit based fee waivers upon request...
Anyone request and get it?

I and some others got the same reply. I have only heard of two people who said they requested one and received it. One was a URM and the other had a 170 LSAT and military experience.
My question is when are they actually going to do their CRS wave? "In the upcoming months" seems like it won't be coming for a while...ugh, come on, BU.

This was their response to me (168/3.7): "Thank you for your interest in Boston University School of Law. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide merit-based fee waivers upon request." Nothing about upcoming months or CRS.
I only saw one person get it upon request on TLS so far.

Hmm that's really interesting...and annoying.
At least they're not discriminating (for the most part) haha
