It depends on your numbers. I think you can Just find similar numbers to you on lsn for the last few years and see what money they got.

Yeah Scholar in Law is just the generic name for a scholarship. Could be anywhere from a few thousand a year up to a full ride or anywhere in between.

So it actually goes as low as a few thousand? I just got my offer from them today, so I'm trying to see how well I did, relatively speaking.

Yeah it goes as low as 5K I think. That being said, evaluating your offer shouldn't really have much to do with what the lowest offer is imo. If you want to know how your offer is compared to where you could potentially end up, PM me.

Done with my phone interview! The admissions guy was super friendly and funny, definitely a great experience for a first interview. I got the typical "Why WUSTL/Why St. Louis" and also "what were the most important criteria for you in choosing a law school"
He gave a bunch of suggestions/resources for what I could do while enrolled, and was really helpful.

99.99% sure the interview was just a formality and I'm in, but holding back on celebrating until I actually receive something confirming it.

As long as you didn't mention the Seahawks, you're good.

167 is the median iirc, but they seem to go back and forth between 166-167

I've been watching this for some time. Their median is 167, and nobody below that has had a scholly offer (at least nobody on LSN). I was admitted over a month ago...still no word. I'm assuming we will start to get offers as others opting for t14s decline their awards. I figure it'll be awhile. Hope I'm wrong.

I haven't heard of anyone been rejected or WL'ed after an interview. Your numbers are probably fine.

It was ten days between my interview and acceptance. If you are above median, the wait is most likely because of the holidays.

I wouldn't make much of it. I've had reach schools accept me six days after I applied, and safety schools take more than 10 weeks (with some which I'm still waiting on). Don't overthink how long they take to give you an answer.
