I've been incomplete for almost 5 weeks... at what point should I be worried?

It took me longer to go complete, maybe 6 weeks. I called them after 4 weeks and they said they had a back log. So i wouldn't worry!

Email admissions and ask them to follow up maybe?

You should hear something by the end of week 8.

Congrats! My scholarship info was in the acceptance letter.

has anyone had any luck in negotiating their way out of the "top-half of the class" stipulation? received a generous offer that is appealing, minus that damn fine print.

In last night via email with $$. Really don't like that stip.

My offer did not have that stip. But try negotiating anyways, you really have nothing to lose. This article is helpful, even if you are trying to get rid of the top 1/2 stip rather than looking for more $$. http://lawschoolexpert.com/top-3-tips-f ... holarship/ Best of luck!

Has anyone else not been able to access the status checker recently? Submitted my app 1/27 and has yet to change from incomplete so I've been checking obsessively until yesterday when it wouldn't work!

Same! I think the link to the status checker changed... from their website you can click Admissions & Aid (top bar), JD, First Year Application Process (side bar) and there's a Review and Status Check Link below. From there you should get an accurate link to the status checker.

Let me know if your status has changed! I submitted around the same time and mine is still incomplete, too...

Submitted 1/29. Went complete 2/16. Finally UR 3/6.

Yea I've been incomplete since 2/1 so I guess it's just their thing. No worries, just part of the process

Accepted today via email after going complete over the weekend! Super excited!!

For those of you who are also in - did you receive info regarding $$$ in the initial or a later email, or was it in the physical acceptance packet to come?

Next day via email for me.

In via email today as well with scholly offer. Not too happy with offer so will try to negotiate, but most likely going to withdraw with better offers available.

Mind sharing your offer?

In review as of 3/6/15, in email they said decision could take up to 8 weeks. By far the slowest school!

Finally gave in and called yesterday. Checked the status checker again this morning and I'm finally "complete"... Looks like calling is the solution! Hopefully a decision is just around the corner.

oh really? well no way im going here without $$$. guess that decision has been made lol kinda shocked i didn't get anything, considering i got pretty good $ from "better" schools. o well...

[Itstatertot]

Anybody have success negotiating $? I tried and got shot down, but was curious to see if anyone else has been successful! I was offered the same amount from schools ranked higher, and would consider Pepperdine with the right amount of $.

Haven't tried yet, sorry to hear that. Going to send an email soon, but I have a feeling I will get shot down too.
