Does anyone know anything about the Public Interest Fellow scholarship? I looked on law school numbers and basically guessed at who I thought got it in previous years (people who got full tuition but whose numbers didn't seem strong enough for Hamilton), but I have no idea what the timing is, how many people per year get it, etc. There's nothing on the website. Any anecdata?

Is it for full tuition though? I thought it was something like 60k.

lol interviewed 1/6 and RADIO SILENCE. At this point I think I'm getting waitlisted/rejected, which would be a bummer because I thought I had good stats for Columbia.

I think that's a pretty big assumption. Not too worried yet

I stand corrected. Must have been some other fellowship. Sorry!

In via email just now! Complete 12/8, interviewed 1/19.

To put a huge damper on that though, if I didn't get the Hamilton offer with my acceptance, that means I didn't get it at all, correct?

Yes, I did. And I should add that I did not think my interview went well. My interviewer kind of hammered me on a small part of my application and caught me off guard, so either I handled it better than I thought or the interview was not super important.

Man, with your complete date and interview date and your stats, and you didn't get the Hamilton or Butler. There is no way they're just deciding on whether or not to give me a scholarship and more likely to be deciding on whether to waitlist me or not.

Pls take me. I love morningside heights.

At this point I'm just hoping they're "holding" me
