I suppose that does not bode well for me. With tuition jumping to 41K, 10K will just not cut it for me personally.

Yea. GPA stipulation. 3.25---and I think they curve to 3.15? So I don't know what I feel about that.

I REALLY like washington & lee, but still need to visit. I'm considering it over Cornell. But I still haven't heard back from Georgetown, UCLA, Berkeley, or Michigan, nor Cornell's scholarship committee. So hard to say my friend, hard to say.

Saving $120 grand doesn't sound too shabby though.

just checked the mail in Chicago. Full ride 40,820. Stips 3.25.

Also I noticed it says full tution (not just 40,000 a year) so each year it'll be adjusted to account for tution increases. :lol:

Only $5K/year with an LSAT just under 170. Schools ranked 5-10 spots higher have offered me close to full-tuition. Weird.

Hahaha ... well let's just say that other people with my LSAT have got more than $25K. I'm an international applicant so I'm avoiding being more specific on the boards.

Compared to 0$ at W&M I am very happy with that!

We have similar numbers and I got waitlisted :-(

Congrats though :-)

Does anyone know if they negotiate scholly stips?

I'm thrilled with the full tuition scholarship, but it seems like almost everyone else got a 3.15 stip instead of 3.25.

I'm with you. I didn't know if W&L was an option for me. If some of my reaches come through I still may not go but I'm definitely going to the asw. Cant beat full ride.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
