I think I'm doing the same thing. There's probably no real point in waiting until Monday. Right?

This decision is hard. UVa offered 25k/year but USC offered 50k. IDK what to do! lol
Choose the school that has a keg on Thursdays.

I hope both of our sections are free during the keg during 1L, but I'm not counting on it =/.

Not unless you'll be able to make a definitive decision before Monday at 5pm, which I know I won't

Was originally going to go to Columbia, but am really frustrated with their $0 offer.

Think I'm leaning UVA now. Wanted to check in!

Based on last years schedule, each section will likely have class between 8:30 and 11:00AM and from 2:00 to 5:00PM, depending on the day, so you're probably right. It looks like people are just going to have to bring beer to CivPro.

I think this discussion happened earlier somewhere. Unfortunate.

Anyone living at The Pavilion in the fall? Or thinking about it?

At the beginning of this cycle, I came very close to not even applying to UVA because I never thought I would end up there. I am so glad I did and I am submitting my seat deposit tonight. I dont know what will happen with waitlist movement over the summer, but as of now I plan to come to Charlottesville and I look forward to meeting you all this fall!

I've heard a few of these today, and they're making me so happy! Haha. Congrats!

I don't know your entire situation and I don't intend on coming across like a big D, but I'm not seeing how that's much of a difficult situation. Seems pretty clear to me.
Without risking turning this into the choosing thread:

Your debt will be less at USC, but prospects to pay off the debt you do accumulate due to COL and remaining tuition is also less. I'm sure you've already looked at this, but I hope you make the choice that works best for you! Keep us posted.

Yea there has to be more to the situation because that's a pretty straightforward scenario IMO.

Has anyone had any luck with financial aid negotiation?

Not that I've heard of. I'm convinced they may genuinely be out of the allotted scholly money. Unfortunately, I don't think there's any way I can justify UVA without a better scholly. I love UVA though, so good luck everyone that attends and have fun.

Would you be willing to say when you asked for the increase and when you got your increase?

RCO2012 · Post by **RCO2012** » Mon Apr 21, 2014 10:00 am

1) I'm interested in your negotiation as well.

2) I just received a PM reminding me about the Tiny Chat. So, I figured I'd ask everyone if they wanted to get that started now that more people have decided upon UVA. If so, I'll fire it up. Let me know

Just withdrew, clearing up $75,000 total - good luck everyone!

I'm sure you guys have great options. Here's to hoping I can take one of your spots this week

Just withdrew as well. Really hard decision.

Good luck to everyone else!

UVA is really not pulling in TLSers too well this year.
