Hi all - VA Resident here. I just checked status and mine says incomplete as of 1/3/2015. Not sure if that has to do with the residency line, where it says "App Rep IS - A". Can anyone help?

in via email this morning! above 75th for LSAT and above median for GPA. complete 1/6, so a really quick turnaround. waiting for my packet with scholarship information before getting too excited, but it's my first acceptance, so not a bad way to start off the morning!

Don't think so. I was admitted and I'm a VA resident and that's what mine says too.

I also got a phone call from admissions a few days after my email to let me know my scholarship amount and to expect the package in the mail.

My status says "File Complete/Decision Not Finalized"

That seems like an interesting status, is that normal?

Ah! Mine is complete 1/8, still waiting for further notification. Is scholly info included in initial admit decision or is that a subsequent email/phone call?

Assuming I am going to receive a scholarship, it wasnt included in the initial email. It does say that an admissions packet is on the way and that it will contain an offer of admission.....so im guessing thats where scholarship info comes in?

I got a phone call re: my scholarship, but the acceptance packet has it all in detail and in writing.

Yes, the scholarship info is in the admissions packet. You can call and ask, I suppose, but it should be arriving soon. Mine took only a couple of days.

It was a large envelope with a folder inside and lots of information.

Does anyone know if William and Mary will compete against WUSTL for scholarships? They're similar in ranking (with WUSTL being a little higher) but not in the same geographical area so i'm not sure...

Thanks!

Just got the acceptance email. Scholly is only 5k per year, so I'm hoping the next few schools will get back with some good news for leverage.

Has anyone tried to negotiate for a scholarship increase yet? Just sent an email inquiring about a possible increase based off of my scholarships from comparable schools Friday night. Hoping to hear back with some good news soon!

General consensus that the change of your requirements boxes to "Photo," "Final UG Transcript," "Health form" etc. is a good sign? Or any mixed results? Thanks in advance and congrats to everyone who has received offers!

Wait really? Was this something they used last year to verify acceptances early?

It's what changed in my status checker a few hours before my acceptance email and at the time is was just kind of common sense. Why else would they need my Final UG transcript, or any of that information unless I was accepted.

Any thoughts on how soon is too soon to start trying to negotiate scholarships?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
