That would be awesome! Hopefully it's not 90% TTTT trash.

Mind sharing how much the increase was? I heard they do this a lot and UGA is my no. 1 choice right now so addittional$$ would kind of seal the deal for me. Also snail mail or email?

From 3k/yr to 5k/yr and it was snail mail.

Haha, right?! I've already dumped stacks of TTT view books in my pre-law advisor's office.

In a similar boat. UGA is definitely in my top 5 ATM and some additional $$$ could propel them right to number 1. I'm >75th percentile LSAT, right at 75th for GPA, for reference.

In via email 12/11. Still waiting on acceptance/scholarship info via snail mail. Any idea why it's taking so long? I'm in NY.

Has anyone else had issues with "Inside Georgia Law"? I am registered and submitted my app mid-october, but I am still under "incomplete" status. I also have to change my password every time I log in. Not sure what's going on....

Any of y'all planning on attending the admitted students reception in atlanta on march 6 or the admitted students open house on march 29? I'll probably go to the open house but I don't know if it's worth it to make the trip to atlanta for a nighttime thing...

Ill likely go to just the Open House. I want to actually see from the school and get a feel for Athens.
Does anyone know how receptive UGA is to solicitations for merit scholarship increases?

+1 to that question. I'd guess pretty open since they've been giving out unsolicited increases, but I don't know. I've been kind of waiting for a big offer from a pricier school so I'd have something to go on, but I'd be interested in knowing anyone's experience with negotiating for more $$ from UGA.

Not to prod, but was there any indication in your online status change? e.g. "decision rendered" or a perpetual "under review"?

Just accepted via status checker!
Applied 10/28, but didn't go complete until 1/10 because I had an LSAT score but was registered for the December test.
>75th LSAT, 25-49th GPA
PM for specifics.

Has anyone tried to negotiate scholarship with UGA yet?
