Sorta. I'll update the thread when I find out what's happening etc. It's not been amazing yet, but at least they are willing to talk.
Would you elaborate please. What was your initial scholarship? and what do you mean by willing to talk? Are they going to re-evaluate the amount in the upcoming month?
I assume it would be hard, if not impossible to get it increased from 96k :/. I was under the impression the only scholarship higher was a full ride..
I can't elaborate because I honestly don't know. All I can say is that they said they don't scholarship match as a policy, but they do alter scholarships throughout the process (allegedly). Obviously if I am successful or rejected outright, I'll let you know.
I was offered 90k initially.
Thank you
. Sorry, I was just a little confused with the sorta. It now makes much more sense to me.

Got acceptance in the mail today
32k/year but the stip is 3.2 GPA after first (and, subsequently 2nd) year which, according to their estimate, is about 45-50% of class. All my other offers are comparable so I don't think there's any way to negotiate that stip down. Oh well, it's still good money and will give me extra incentive to do well

I got in with scholarship money with 161/3.27 as a K-JD submitting at about the same time as you..... you should be okay unless your LoRs/PS/softs are expressed poorly. Although, i got my decision awhile ago.

I wish they did as well. We should all try to go on one of the same student host days.

I politely emailed them today asking if anything was missing from my file, and they responded back promptly saying my file was complete. I just checked my status, and it says decision was mailed out today! hopefully it's not a rejection letter......

Emailed them today a few hours ago, haven't heard a thing. Have been complete forever now. I'm convinced they just don't like me.

I had trouble accessing the status checker, so the email verified that my application was complete and made sure I was able to log in again with the designated student id no. & dob. That's about it.
