This makes no sense. If you read stip as stipend. I was so confused for so long. sheesh.

has anyone received a stipend of any sort or does anyone know if umn offers stipends ever?

No clue on stipend

stip meant stipulation

Congrats dude.

I keep going out and checking my mailbox today but nothing yet.
Thanks!

I'm pretty happy about 1/2 scholly on school I thought I only had 50/50 chance of being admitted

I had a really rough semester in which I experienced multiple deaths of those close to me / just stopped going to school but was dumb enough to not even withdrawal. Made my LSAT gpa go from 3.9+ to <3.5... I'm thinking maybe Minnesota took that into consideration and didn't view my GPA as typical <3.5 GPA (I could be wrong though lol)

Just got my packet with a full ride and 2.5 stipulation. Still waiting to hear from other schools, but I'm so excited! I definitely appreciate the MN love :)

If I could "like" all of these admissions, I would. Congrats everyone. Feel free to add me on Facebook via the Admitted Students website.

I really hope my packet comes tomorrow. If it doesn't show tomorrow, I won't see it until the 27th at the earliest due to holiday travel. I want my scholly info! So excited!

I went under review only three days after I went complete (12/9) and have been that way ever since.

Congrats! Gives me hope for Minnesota :D
Thanks! You'll get Minn for sure, they love splitters and your LSAT is even higher than mine. If I can get in (with money, at that), then you DEFINITELY are a shoo-in ^_^

I got my admit packet today and am offered full tuition scholarship. I withdrew my application already so hopefully the money goes to one of the TLSers still waiting.

Good luck!
