I got a little over $60k for all 3 years combined and I feel like that's a little low considering my numbers. Is anyone else planning on negotiating?

What are your numbers? If I don't get Miami scholars and I get a higher LSAT score I might negotiate

Yea but I think he was also a public interest scholar (or whatever they call it) so that may have something to do with it also...

They took me off of hold as well and I'm in! I got the email about ASW today, but I won't be able to attend because of class. I'm going down next week though to visit.

Didn't work for me either. I just don't get why theyre so adamant about negotiating/giving out more money, especially the recent drop in applicants. I have yet to see anyone in this thread or last years that was ever successful in negotiating, unless I missed something

admitted via the status checker today! I applied 2 days ago... so I thought it was some kind of joke to be accepted that soon. How long after acceptance do you hear about scholarships??

Haven't gotten a call or email about Miami PI scholars yet guess that means I'm not getting the scholarship :|
