Nope. Although the letter said I could apply for scholarships which is interesting. May get some need-based but we'll see. Will probably end up withdrawing and opening up a spot for someone else

The stip annoys me. I hope to negotiate the scholarship and the stipulation at a later date. Top 45% of the class seems fishy.

Received admission packet today with no scholarship. Going to wait to hear back from other schools before trying to negotiate a scholarship so we'll see. Do all of their scholarships include that 3.2 stip?

I think all but the full-rides... but then again, TLS is a small sample of LMU applicants, so I'm not too sure.

Top 45-50%, the say. I thought this was actually pretty standard. I've only heard of a few people having no stips, and those were with stellar numbers. The only place I've heard of not putting stips on was Michigan... Of course, just because I haven't heard of others doesn't mean they don't exist...

I don't believe any of the t14 scholarships have stips, other than the standard "maintain good academic standing." Fordham doesn't have any, nor does BU (that I can personally verify anyway).

It's just a little nerve racking knowing that some schools section stack (I have no idea if LMU does or does not, I cannot find anything to suggest they do). 45% may seem simple, but if they pile all the 90k kids into the same 30 person section, 15-16 will lose their scholarships :/

I try not to think like this, but it's a reality. I hope that the stipulations can be negotiated.

I got my acceptance around the beginning of January. $90k with 3.2 stip, going to withdraw though. Hope that gives some of you negotiating peeps some help!

Sounds like they're giving out a lot of scholarships. Are there any numbers on scholarship retention?

An associate in my office went to Loyola and he says they actually don't end up having very many students with scholarships because of how many scholarship recipients withdraw.

I'm thinking he's probably right and people on TLS probably do not represent an accurate sample size of those who get accepted.

OK guys I think I'm obsessing now.

It is not where it used to be... curious. Maybe they are re-doing it? They just remodeled the site a few days ago...

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
