Just got the email! 5,500/year. A little bit less than I would've liked since UIUC already offered me 10k/year guaranteed... oh decisions..

Hey LSN buddy-- Not bad at all! We both got the same amount

haha yea! now I just have to get into BC like you did already!

It looks like on top of tuition, fees and living expenses will be an additional 20k...anyone know how accurate this is?

Email - $20K per/yr ...maintain 3.0 GPA

$30,000. So close to full...

As far as my choices go, W&L moves to the top. Nevertheless, still very close at this point in the game.

Numbers in profile.

What's the close second? Colorado?

I would love to be in CO, but I doubt I can afford their OOS tuition. UNC would technically be in second place. I live just a few mins from the law school.

[T14_Scholly]

34,000/year. will also likely be withdrawing. have similar offers from MUCH better schools.

Way to snub your nose.

24,000 today via email. 167/3.4. probably won't be going, but i need to hang onto it b/c i haven't seen any $$ from my number 1.

Guess I'm be withdrawing pretty soon. After the 25K/year offer at BU and 30K/year + housing at GW, W&L would have had to top those offers to put it in real contention for me.

+ housing? That's sexy.

Congrats on that. Apparently one LSAT point makes a $24,500 a year difference though.

17,000/yr with a 3.0!! super excited/surprised about this. this offer beats out offers from other much lower ranked schools like lewis and clark, depaul etc. my numbers are 166, 3.1. this put W and L at the top for me.

Guess it's like the 164 wall at UGA.

Side note: What are your thoughts on our new coach?

[Rowinguy2009]

I got full tuition?!? 38,000 and change each year, will be adjusted by the board of trustees each year to make sure offer matches any tuition raises. 166 LSAT 3.74 gpa. All I can say is holy sh*t. I am psyched. The only downside is a 3.25 gpa stipulation. Any way I can talk that down to 3.0?

Yeah, its housing for 1 year in a studio apartment building just for 1L's. Really makes the BU/GW dilemma tough. I'm more of a city person so it would have taken a lot to get me out to Lexington.

[pollaclc]

yesss scholarship email: 24000/yr if i keep a 3.0, which they claim 80% of students do... now how do i go about using that and by 20000/yrs at wake forest and notre dame to talk william & mary into giving me a lot more than 6000/yr?

A 3.25 is around their median. Full tuition with the requirement that you stay in the top 50% is about as good as it gets. 3.0 would be top 80-90%.

[moonmaster3]

doesn't look like il'l be getting anything today.

[Wee-Bey]

17 a year if I can maintain a 3.0. If they had given me more I might have toyed with the idea of Lexington, but I'm a bit disappointed to be honest.

[ndirish2010]

Nothing in the mail today...excited to hear my offer from W&L, hopefully it compares favorably to that from W&M

[theseus636]

Does anybody know if all the scholarship offers are going out today?

I was one of the full-tuition/2 weeks to accept offers last summer. Quite a drop in $$$ to swallow. I was about to start scheduling my trip back that way - now may wait a bit and see what other offers come.

If they'd repeated the offer, be a strong chance I'd be there...

[mikcou]

Got the email this afternoon. 24,000 a year!!!

[fedtaxed]

I don't know -- but I haven't received anything today & my numbers are in the same range as people who have gotten offers. So I hope/expect that there are still more to come....
