I just got off as well! Any idea on how long I should wait to email regarding scholarship info? I'm happy to be off the waitlist, but it will take some serious money for them to talk me into turning down 120K from WUSTL

My only concern is that I'm Canadian so these packages take like 5 weeks to arrive...

I would call. People on that admissions council have always been incredibly nice and quick to help!

What are your stats? If you don't mind...

I noticed you sent an LOCI, did you mind sharing what you wrote about?

I had a 3.2 GPA and I got a 162. I am a weird case though because I attended BC undergraduate and through an environmental program was able to take a few classes at BC Law. I wrote my LOCI about those classes primarily.

They just sent me an email with the acceptance letter attached. Letter made no mention of scholarship, am I out of luck or is this info normally found elsewhere?

My stats are low (GPA and LSAT below their 25th), but I have 2+ years of WE and I'm Hispanic (non-URM). I went for a visit and sent in a LOCI last month.

Anyone who has gotten off the waitlist and negotiated an increase in the original scholarship offer, how long did it take you to hear back? I've been waiting a week, which I know isn't long, but I assume they would want to answer waitlisters ASAP
