Re: Has anyone heard from Chicago-Kent?
I'm in review, too, since 11/24. Does anybody know if the 6 week estimate is accurate? I'm hoping to know sooner...

Re: Has anyone heard from Chicago-Kent?
LSN seems to confirm if you aren't a URM, you are only getting $60,000 max. With Chicago's COL you are looking at over 100K debt after graduation.jcunni5 wrote:they seem to be pretty stingy I had a 171 and a gpa of 3.48 and they gave me $60,000 for three years, i mean its a nice scholly but I feel there are better schools that would give you more moneycubswin wrote:Anyone know if there's a particular LSAT score or set of numbers where Kent starts handing out decent merit aid?

If you look at their site, they have that 'Honors Scholars' scholarship which is full tuition + 10k stipend.

Got a big package in the mail, turns out to just be inviting me to apply to the school with a letter dated November 2009. Way to get my hopes up Kent. Way to go.
The waiting game continues.

Re: Has anyone heard from Chicago-Kent?
Got acceptance with 2 options for scholarships: Option A is big $$$ but tough GPA req, whereas option B is less $$$ but easier GPA req
Risk/reward abound
