WUSTL Recent Grad (and others) Taking Questions Forum

[nachosrgood]

^^ Sorry to change the subject there, but have you met anyone at WUSTL who is coming out with ~$100,000+ (including CoL + undergrad loans*) who wants to do gov'tal or PI work, but is relying on this golden formula to repay the loans:

WUSTL's LRAP / PSLF + IBR ? (Is this fwt or nay?)

Thanks !!
(that was a strange question, but I studied WUSTL's LRAP and I noticed that WUSTL offers a very generous LRAP--much more generous than some other schools that I've gotten into)

* I have more than average undergrad loans. D;

In case anyone wanted access to the forms:
http://law.wustl.edu/LRAP/documents/LRA ... an2015.pdf
http://law.wustl.edu/LRAP/index.aspx?id=4265

TLDR: LRAP II: Maximum PI salary for the Wash U LRAP II is 70k, Wash U pays 60% of your IBR payment (to use PAYE, must do LRAP I) , you pay the other 40%. At 10 years they expect PLSF (nothing mentioned about the tax bomb - I talked to financial services last year and they "expect" that Congress will take care of the tax bomb problem... but of course who knows). Minimum loan debt required to enter the program is 20k. There are strong limits to the amount of savings/equity/etc you can have if you are on LRAP.

Anyone have recommendations for where to buy a reasonably priced suit or two for interviews and such? Also any recommendations on where to get it tailored?

This would be correct. Although I do appreciate it, Markin.

I'm a Duke student thinking of coming to WU, are there are a lot of kids from Duke undergrad?

Depends what you mean by "a lot", but there are several.

Relative to other schools? And personality wise how do they get along with the rest of the student body, I know we have a reputation for being a bit douchey/elitist...

the 2L's from Duke are all chill/great people until March Madness rolls around

Hey Cuse, good luck to Syracuse in March this y...oh wait.

And I mean, a huge chunk of people here are from schools considered snobby, it's nbd. Also it seems strange to me to try to lump all people from a school into a category. It's an individual thing. There are people from a lot worse schools than duke that are snobby, and people from a lot better schools that aren't.

There are probably more vandy, wash u, mizzou, SLU grads, but other than those schools duke has as many as anyone probably.

[chuckbass]

Yeah I really wouldn't worry about finding other Duke alums, there are people here that you get along with, and it's not like people separate off by undergrad

Why did a 1L just CC the entire student body on an e-mail about after-hours library lighting?

Tbf the switch to no lighting is annoying depending on where you prefer to study, but yea... not surprised by said email though tbh

Sure, but why CC the entire class is what I don't get.

Well the guy who wrote the email lists his Mensa membership on his Linkedin page, so you know his concerns are valid because he's smart.

[disco_stu]

This is hilarious. Please CC more guys.
