I would love to see stats if anyone is willing... here or via PM.

75% LSAT and slightly below median GPA, so it is quite a surprise they offfered me full ride. (Probably because they don't care much about international GPA )

Awarded full scholarship. At LSAT 75% and above GPA 75%

It should be in the acceptance packet folder. "Campus Preview Weekend Travel Reimbursement" form.

Congrats to everyone!

I need some advice from y'all:

I just took the Dec LSAT. My current highest LSAT is 166 and I'm in the 3.3-3.4 GPA range. I think I improved on the Dec LSAT. Should I apply right now, or wait until Dec score is released?

I would wait. Minnesota makes scholarship decisions at the time of admittance, so if you improve your LSAT you'll get more $$.

Ah, didn't know that! Thank you. My concern is that if my score didn't improve this time around that I will be potentially losing out on scholarship money that I could have gotten if I had applied now... I had been originally thinking that I could submit now, then negotiate for more if my Dec LSAT is higher... but maybe Minnesota doesn't take kindly to that?

Also, maybe $$ won't make a huge difference between applying within 1 week vs applying in 3-4 weeks when scores are out...

My experience with MN negotiating is fairly negative, but others have had success (IIRC).

Looks like I'll be waiting on that Dec score then. Thanks Sheboygan.
