Yep, I've been accepted. Honestly if your LSAT went up 6 points, you might want to apply next year. I think you have a decent shot applying now (assuming apps are still open), I just don't know if you'd get any $$$.

Spoke with admissions at the end of last week. They've been trying to get everything just right, but said it should go out today.
Anyone see an additional mailing on their status checker? I didn't. :|

Why can't they just email scholarship information like everyone else? /bitter that I'm on the west coast.

Nothing yet :( and I'm about to be out of the country for 10 days. The anxious waiting continues.

I called yesterday and the person I spoke with said that they mailed the first round of scholarship packets out on Friday and were sending more out yesterday. It sounded like everything was being mailed out ASAP but maybe not. If anyone gets anything, please update us!

Do y'all think we'll get a notification on our status checker of a scholarship packet being sent our way?

I think if there have been two batches sent and no one has seen anything, probably not? But apparently some did get something in their mailings last cycle, so there is a possibility

Are we assuming that the Law Scholars Merit Awards have been given out already? The website said February, and someone posted earlier ITT about receiving an invitation to interview in Nashville for them.

I just hung up with admissions and she told me they sent out a batch yesterday, a batch today, and any remaining ones will be sent out by the end of the week at the latest. All by snail mail. So hopefully we will all hear back very soon!!!

Where is everyone staying for the ASW? I was planning on requesting to stay with a current student, but I guess I was too late for that.
