I was accepted in November and i heard last week. it was lower than I expected though and I was listening to a podcast from their admissions where they said they do not negotiate

Did you hear via email? Was there any paperwork you had to fill out beforehand? I was accepted in early December so I'm hoping to hear something soon.
yeah by email and no paperwork.

Rumor has it (from a reliable source) that they have a 20% increase in apps from last year.

Anyone going to the ASW next week: did you receive an email reminder today? Anyone know what the attached reading is about? I'm assuming we're supposed to read it for the class, but some sort of explanation/itinerary would've been nice.

Also, has anyone heard whether there is a travel stipend or reimbursement policy?

If we didn't get an offer by now, is it for sure that we won't get one?

I haven't received one either, and I was accepted in early December.

Has anyone noticed a change on their status checkers? Yesterday, my blue checked boxes went to gray and are now back to blue. At one point, half were blue with the other half gray. Has this happened to anyone else?

I'm at median GPA and 75th LSAT, so I was really hoping to get something. Oh well. Guess I'll be withdrawing unless I hear anything.

Does BC have some sort of set scholarship negotiation/reconsideration form? Or do you just email the finaid office directly?
