Turns out I

After actually looking at the letter, I found out I received $75k. A generous offer no doubt, but I'll likely be withdrawing soon.

does anyone know if emory gives a travel stipend? can't seem to find one anywhere and between flights, hotel, and two $40 cab rides... that's expensive!

In today with $45k

Just out of curiosity.. If I want to send a LOCI to Emory, how do you think I should submit it? I haven't sent any others out...

I'm pretty new on here, so thanks for any help!

Still not sure if I'll go to Emory, though I was accepted with 45k scholarship and liked the handwritten note.

Anyhoo, FAFSA and the CSS Profile need to be in by now right? Just finished and submitted FAFSA yesterday, I think the priority deadline for some schools was Feb 1 for the profile, so I'm a bit worried.

Have you been waitlisted yet?

Generally, LOCIs should be reserved for those on WLs. Think about it this way - if you DO get WLed in the future (and you had already sent a LOCI), you already blew your chance to update Emory on your recent accomplishments.

At least wait until mid-Mar or so to consider sending one out...

That does make sense; I haven't heard anything back from them yet, so I'll wait a while before sending anything out. Do you submit it through LSAC somehow though? Snail mail?

Send it directly to the admissions office; snail-mail is preferable, but I think e-mail is OK

I respectfully retract my statement on looking over a greek dorm. I didn't realize how cheap rent is in Atlanta! On craigslist, luxury apartments with free gym membership, valet parking, sundeck, movie theater, pools, basically the shiz are 850/month. That's literally under a 3rd of what that would cost in NYC.

On that note, I am thinking that a bedroom in a house would prob be sub-400, and one can prob get a house with a pool for this price. Would any people if they are going possibly be interested in getting a bunch of law students together to rent a house for a year?

Emory's Res Life page for graduate students ( http://www.emory.edu/HOUSING/GRAD/gradhouse.html ) links to two places, the first one has the luxury facilities. That might be the one you're talking about I think? Name is Campus Crossings at Briarcliff. Didn't know ads were up on craigslist too! :O

oh i just typed emory into craigslist atlanta. i know the website has stuff listed, but i would check on my own. i don't need to live with all law students to feel comfortable in a city. american people are a good bunch, and i can be content anywhere nice, well priced and american.

I've posted this a couple times, but https://housing.emory.edu/off-campus/home.cfm may help you find "alternative" accomodations, such as the house with a pool that justa was fawning over

Haha thanks! $1500 is not going to make or break my decision on whether or not to attend

Also, does anyone else love that Emory is hosting their ASW on a Saturday? Not having to miss work FTW! I will definitely be attending.

rbarcelo9 · Post by **rbarcelo9** » Tue Mar 01, 2011 11:10 am

Congrats Krad!!! I think most schools do their ASW during the week so that you can sit in on an actual class, but not missing work will be sweet.

In with 45k

very excited about this, I think emory might be the one for me

I wish the ASD was earlier though, if I don't like it, it doesn't give me much time...

People who have received acceptance letters very recently (ie, today, yesterday, or over the wknd): did you receive the e-mail about being a frat/sorority house mentor?

Trying to figure out if the 2nd batch has been sent yet..
