I'm seriously considering Georgetown but hoping to negotiate with schools soon
I would recommend checking out the class threads page for GULC (
http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 6&t=258578). Someone mentioned that they called the office, and they said scholly offers are going to start coming out early this week.
Thank you for the info!
Just got an offer - 20K. Why is the deadline so soon - April 1st?! And do you think its realistic to negotiate with them, with such a soon deadline?
Also, has anyone heard anything from their financial aid office?

I didn't receive a feel email, but I emailed them asking for money, and got an email on March 1st saying they received my merit request. Got an initial offer yesterday, albeit lower than I hoped...but that's what negotiating is for.

Hey all. Any idea what is the highest merit offer Georgetown hands out is? I've seen 120k, but I'm wondering if they go beyond that. Anyone here receive (or hear of someone who received) 135, 150, or full $$$$ ?
Thanks!

Yo, what the fuck Georgetown. I need to know this so I can finally start negotiations and ultimately make a decision soon. Should I email them? Call? I got the feeler email but nothing since. I don't think I'm crazy for wanting them to hurry up..

What about the lower end? Is 10k/year the smallest grant they give?
Also - the ABA 509 has their scholarship 25th percentile at 10,700... wtf is with the 700? just me or is that odd?

That is odd, but someone posted on the spreadsheet a similar number. I think it was like 12,7000

Longtime lurker here. Alumni interview on 3/7. How long does it usually take to be notified of a decision post-interview? Can't find an answer elsewhere on the thread.

I got a Feeler email, but didn't respond back with an actual number I was looking for (just that costs mattered a lot to me). Should I email back with an actual number or continue to wait?

In my original email I did not specify a number and got an offer in the first wave. I don't know whether this was the right move or not, but just so you know that you don't have to give a specific number to get an offer.

I finally just had my alumni interview after getting the request on 2/26. The first alum never responded to them and I finally heard from the second one yesterday. Let's hope there are still spots left! Lol

Since they have a class size of 1 million people I'm sure you'll be fine!! (I'm hoping for the same thing, had alumni interview two weeks ago)
