Thanks! I saw you are also looking at Mizzou. I'm interested to see their financial aid package and how it stacks up to SLU's.thelawschoolproject wrote:CPM723 wrote:Got my acceptance today. Received 66k, which makes the deal very enticing.

I noticed in the email SLU didn't say anything about a stipulation. Do scholarships at SLU require anything other than good standing?
That wouldn't be terrible though.thelawschoolproject wrote:CPM723 wrote:Thanks! I saw you are also looking at Mizzou.

Nope, I honestly don't think so. I think it's pretty much guaranteed money.
As for Mizzou's money...yeah, I don't hold out much faith for their scholarships being anything substantial. They generally don't offer anything higher than half tuition.

Hi, SLU, remember me?? 
Do they still use horse and buggy to get mail in and out of the St Louis area?thelawschoolproject wrote:lol @ Sarah
I'm actually quite concerned by the fact that my admissions packet hasn't come in the mail yet...especially since it's been over a week and I live 2 hours from STL.
Oh my, yeah don't go to SLU if you're not set on the St. Louis region. This is my conundrum. Do I want to live in St Louis? I would like to live in St. Louis, but I don't want to be trapped in St. Louis. Ahhh a WUSTL acceptance would be delightful. Although, I guess if you got the 1843 full ride, that might be something to take into consideration.thelawschoolproject wrote:Yeah, I love STL, but I'm concerned about the job prospects when graduating from SLU. I know they place well in STL, but outside of that I don't have a lot of confidence.
Although, in my packet (which I only received yesterday) it says I'm a finalist for the 1843 Scholarship and that I'm supposed to be interviewed during the ASW in March. Does anyone have any information on this process or the general structure of the interview?

Exactly. Right now living in STL sounds amazing (especially if tuition is free) but is that how I'll feel in 5 years? 10 years? I dno, and if I want out I don't want the anxiety of worrying about finding a job elsewhere.
I also would love a WUSTL acceptance but my app hasn't moved off of 11/3.
Yeah, but in some cases it didn't come until that next Monday, so don't freak out.Andrews989 wrote:Status checker changed to "Decision Made, Letter to follow shortly". Went complete 12/2, 12/13 and 12/22.
It looks like most of you were emailed a few hours after receiving a decision made status?
No word. Hopefully I'm not waiting all the way till Monday.CPM723 wrote:Yeah, but in some cases it didn't come until that next Monday, so don't freak out.Andrews989 wrote:Status checker changed to "Decision Made, Letter to follow shortly". Went complete 12/2, 12/13 and 12/22.

what are your numbers? I was below 25th percentile on both GPA and LSAT last cycle, and they finally called me to offer admission in June. Apparently i was wl'd, but i was never informed...they just kinda leave you hanging. This year I'm well above 75% for LSAT, and I heard back in like a month, so i think it is numbers driven.eboston wrote:I'm beginning to wonder what is going on over at SLU.

Same with me. NO movement. 167 3.5 URM N. COmplete 11/13. Nothing except under review since 12/13.eboston wrote:I'm beginning to wonder what is going on over at SLU. I've been complete since 10/20 with absolutely no movement! Should I email or call them or would that be inappropriate?
Oh my. In your case it may be some sort of Yield Protect. After all, you probably will get a generous offer from WUSTL, and SLU knows it.SarahT wrote:Same with me. NO movement. 167 3.5 URM N.

I sent a very polite email regarding my continued interest on 12/17 and no response to the email either.
