I have 160 and 3.3 and received no scholarship. I have no idea how to ask if it was a mistake without sounding like I'm money-grubbing.

Check this out viewtopic.php?f=22&t=79373. Either way you have nothing to lose because they can't go back on your admission offer and they didn't offer you any money yet.jessi419 wrote:SixStrings11 wrote:

Hello, for those who recently received noticed on their app status what day did you go complete, my file has been in review since 1/21. Is this a bad sign?

Re: Hofstra 2011
Just to clarify my statement above where I said I haven;t heard a thing since 1/18 - that was meant for Brooklyn thread and I accidently posted it here. There seems to be a bit of confusion in my other thread about this. Of course people like to jump to crazy conclusiions about this stuff.

Re: Hofstra 2011
My status checker doesn't say anything about a scholarship letter
. I'm kind of surprised because my LSAT is above their 75th (although my GPA is god awful). Did anybody receive a scholarship without seeing it in their status checker?
