Got the Carswell! Glad to see info up, and that they're increasing it... very exciting.

I wish more schools would do things like this. It keeps things interesting.

Couldn't agree more. Plus, the excitement of checking and seeing one number, then checking later and seeing a bigger number is awesome (and a relief).

And for anyone trying to churn out the ASD's for area schools (I'm trying to do them as closely together as possible): Cardozo has one on Thurs 3/24 and St. Johns has one one Sat 3/26

I'm going to the Cardozo one on the 24th as well! I had planned to go to the SJU also, but I just withdrew a couple of days ago. Guess we'll be seeing each other around NYC!

[Woods, Elle]

I'll be at Cardozo, too! Not planning on going to St. John's, but I may go to BLS when they have one.

[goosey]

Anyone know of anyone who has had success in negotiating the stipulations with BLS? From the looks of their website, that top 40% requirement is pretty set in stone.

1L @ bls...theres no way they are lifting that stipulation. they will double your money before they lift the stipulation.

do your work and you'll be fine. top 40 is not impossible.

Do you know if the rumors of section stacking are true?

everyone thinks its their section, including me. have some freakin geniuses in my section--and everyone is super hardworking. but theres ppl in other sections that swear their section is stacked. maybe bls just gives out a ridic amount of money and everyone has some type of scholarship? nobody is jerkish enough to tell they have a full scholarship tho, so no telling whether they put the huge schols in one section.

My scholarship is full..and it started at 32k, so...negotiating will go a long way, but dont count on the stipulation being lifted

[livefreeordie]

HELP! Where on BLSConnect do you see scholarship info?!?

[livefreeordie]

Found it

Does everyone's say pending? I'm at 30K so far!!! More more more!!!!

Has anyone been admitted/denied this week? I feel like I have not seen much movement recently.

I was yesterday.

Is there any chance at a sholarship to the part time program with 158/3.95?

Congrats! Good to see something happening.

I don't know. To be honest, I would be more concerned with just gaining admission--your GPA is absurdly high, but your LSAT is a few points short of the part time program's 25%. Let's both get in first, and then worry about money.

[Coll89]

Just wait listed now. Pretty surprised actually...

A current student from Brooklyn just called me, she sounded hott so I talked to her for like ten minutes. Is it bad that I told her I was probably going to another school?

No, I'd go to UNC over Brooklyn (I looked at your LSN )

I would be pretty surprised if I didn't get in because I got into Cardozo which is a better school and is harder to gain acceptance to.

These things happen. GW rejected me.

Thats crazy. Why are you even still on this thread with your other offers? Congrats btw (idk if I already told you that elsewhere), you really are having an awesome cycle.

To add to the craziness: Cardozo waitlisted me :S

Thank you! Sorry about Cardozo. Still in this thread just because I just want all of my cycle to be in before I commit anywhere or withdraw from somewhere.

Not saying you won't get in, but splitter cycles are always really hard to predict. Also, I feel like this cycle has been pretty weird.. I got into Cardozo with 20k but people with my exact same numbers were waitlisted.. you never know.
