Wow. That's awesome. They upped me only $6k a year --> $10k a year. Unfortunately, there tuition is still too damn high. I'm crushed since I loved the campus. I guess I'll have to go to my second choice and just hope Portland "out of sight, out of mind" works. I'm a little heartbroken : /

Received the same today. I was pretty surprised, as I've heard that this doesn't happen too often at L&C.

Same thing here. I already know where I'm going, I love L&C but it's still just too much.

Case Western.

So conflicted love Portland and L&C but even with 16k/yr, tuition is still so high...

Case Western.

I will also be going Midwestern

Agreed. I wish they were a little more generous with the money.

[pret]

I'm honored I was admitted, especially since I'm WAY below their GPA/LSAT stats, but I just can't commit to moving across the country and spending so much money.

You are not willing to take out any loans?

Oh, I'm more than willing to take out loans but factoring in cost of living plus tuition I'd end up about 120,000 in debt (and that's not factoring in interest).

Understandable...I feel pretty somewhat the same way. I mean it depends on the school and legal market in the area (applying next cycle). Ive heard good things about L & C and Portland and general, but I know the school has basically regional employment prospect, and the PNW is obviously smaller market. I will definitely apply but hopefully they can throw me a bone. Where do you think you will go instead?

I'm actually looking at reapplying next year and hoping for a T14 acceptance.

The PNW and L&C are def great and if money wasn't an issue I'd take L&C in a heartbeat.

is there a facebook group for the 2015 class? I put down my deposit and will most likely be attending.

Any movement on the waitlist yet?

I'm hanging tight and hoping to hear soon. L&C is definitely my top choice for their animal law program but this waiting game ... man, it sucks.
