Yep, I'm in at Berkeley and Michigan but I don't know how I could turn down no debt from USC, I want California big law as of right now, but if I don't have much debt to pay down then suddenly I've got many more options I think.

Similar situation! Those along with UCLA and UVA are my other choices in the running right now but still waiting on some scholarship offers. Good luck where ever you end up!

Pretty disappointed by my $105k scholly offer. I know that's not an inconsiderable amount, but my GPA is just below median, LSAT>>>75. Via LSN, it looks like they're prioritizing GPA for offers this time around.

I've seen on here and on the subreddit that there's been some movement on acceptances today. Does this mean chances for a Friday wave are gone?

Just got in via email! I'm so excited! For those of you who also got in today, did you receive your scholarship information today too? I haven't received any notification yet (?), and I'm low key freaking out about it...

I'm wondering how many people get offered the Honors Scholars Program. I got an invite, but I can't find much information other than a Jan 22, 2016 USC post. It indicates that 20 students are part of the program. Does this mean that it's actually relatively uncommon to get invited? I just can't really believe that's the case, because my application was good but nothing exceptional. Median LSAT and >75th GPA.

Wondering if I can stay with friends/family that week to knock out both with one trip. I def don't want to spend the money for flying twice even if it is partially reimbursed.

I bet both schools will work with us to split costs if we wanted to make that work.

Same here! I'm an east-coaster and really would like to tour both schools in a single trip. Not sure how travel stipends work at UCLA, but hopefully the USC travel booking company will let me choose my dates so that I can stay a little longer in LA.

Was expecting to get rejected today, but didn't. There's still hope. Can't even remember when I went UR at this point.
