Nope, nothing on scholarships—the email did say they're sending out a "fancy" welcome package, so may be in there. (Other admits, cutest admit email ever, amirite??)

The welcome package isn't fancy :/ Unless I missed something.

It is a small folder with more Michigan paper promo materials (similar to info packets) and your letter. Though the letter is hand signed by Dean Z, usually with a note. Oh and you get one (1) Mich Law sticker hidden in one of the flaps.

I just finished interviewing for the Darrows! I can't stop thinking about how amazing it would be to not graduate with a 6-figure debt!

I was invited on the 5th I believe, I think I was accepted two weeks before then.

I was offered a Dean's scholarship for $150k earlier this week (btw, do all "Dean's scholarships" = $150?).

Complete late September, accepted in the first week of January. Above both 75ths.

I have been lolling at these for a good 5 minutes now.
I read the link I just believe in my case that that is the reason. They said they already read my file once. People with better numbers have gotten in already even though they applied after me. So I am assuming it's because of my splitter status. I could be wrong....

That's fine. I bet it's someone on the committee who was supposed to read your file (and mine) and got preggers 9-ish months ago and had to go on leave.

Am I correct in assuming that no one who was invited to interview for the Darrows has received any scholarships offers yet because of Darrows possibility?

This is generally the case. Those who unsuccessfully interview for a Darrow often receive Dean's Scholarships, but this necessarily follows the interview and decision on the Darrow award.

Negative, my Dean's Scholarship is 90k.
Mine is also 90k. Looks like there is three levels at least - 90k, 150k, and Darrow.

How is 150k not just a full ride?
