Do you have to actually withdraw if the seat deposit deadline passes?

Nah. Withdrawing is just courteous if you know you aren't going before deadline. I realize I ghosted a school yesterday.

You never "have" to withdraw. I have withdrawn from every school, though. It's a simple email.

Thanks! I had 1 that was passing today that I forgot about and wasn't sure if you had to formally withdraw from everywhere when accepting an offer elsewhere

Hey everyone can someone link me to a good explanation about how to negotiate scholarships? If there is one? Asking here b/c the financial aid board is more dead.

Went to an event today where I knew that I'd see a lot of my friends, so I wore a shirt from my school just so people wouldn't ask where I was going. Three people still asked. Apparently not enough flexing, should've worn a full outfit.

For those who have successfully negotiated, have you like sent a general email to ask to speak to someone who deals with financial aid, or do you just send an email to the financial aid email address and lay it all out on the table in your first message? I just visited the school.

send it to the financial aid office and if there's a specific person, they'll forward it. include all your competing offers (I put every single offer I had from all peer schools) in the initial email.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

Thanks - sent in my first email :shock:

Also sad that i'm sitting here at 1am on a saturday freaking out about deciding between three schools where my heart is not 100% :( I wish I could hear back from NYU/CLS. I really just don't want to spend another three years long distance, and I really want to take part in the opportunities afforded at those schools :( :(

at sticker? you have great options and NYU/CLS aren't worth that much more. though I think you said your SO is in NYC so that complicates things. but I definitely don't think the opportunities available at CLS/NYU are that much greater to justify sticker price over $$ at T13s. plus all the schools you're deciding between will get you back to NYC :D

^Would second this. NYU/CLS at sticker puts you in a debt hole that is longer than your long distance would be! Totally get SO bit though, so maybe Cornell is a happy medium?

Yeah, it's a lot of money, but I thankfully was able to save up a year of COA, so I wouldn't be in debt for the full sticker price. Thanks for the support and listening to my commiseration :)

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
