Has anyone who applied heard back from the University of Richmond yet?

[vdh2102]

I applied about a week and a half ago and haven't yet heard back. Post if you hear something!

[Lyndsc]

I applied back in September and still haven't heard anything. Last week I had a huge envelope in the mail from them and they were inviting me to apply with a fee waiver -_-.

Ugh, the one that said "scholarship information inside"? Yeah, I got that one too-- my boyfriend checked the mail and excitedly called me to tell me I got a scholarship so I raced home to open it.... and it was advertising material, haha. And the wait continues....

lol. Sorry for having fun at your expense, but those two stories crack me up.

[Lyndsc]

Always happy to entertain. If it wasn't a safety school that incident probably would have sent me over the edge.

Happened to me yesterday too. Went home and saw a thin packet and immediately knew I was getting played

[Lyndsc]

If this were reddit and not TLS Richmond would have a Scumbag Steve meme by now, just saying...

[kgodsey]

Anyone hear anything yet? Going off of last year's thread people started hearing back during the first week of November. Richmond is my first choice for many reasons and the anxiety is killing me!

Admitted tonight.

Got the call from the Dean herself.

Submitted 9/1.

[kgodsey]

I was also admitted last night by phone call. I applied 10/30 ED. Anyone else who got in, will we be recieving an admissions packet in the mail?

[lawschoolladyy]

Admitted on 11/17 - Dean called!

[vdh2102]

Admitted just now, phone call from dean! She said that scholarship decisions won't be made until March and that they do not negotiate but that she expects to offer a full or most tuition scholarship. Exciting!!!

[Lyndsc]

Admitted! Just got a call from the dean telling me to expect three quarters to full tuition scholarship!

[Lyndsc]

Congrats to the other admits!!

[Westofeden]

Just got the call! In! My first acceptance this cycle. Looks like I'll be getting quite some money as well, but won't officially know until March.

So did she tell everyone on this thread we were all getting significant scholarships when she called? Im not 100% with how Richmond handles the scholarships but does anyone know what UGPA/LSAT scores are nabbing the large $$ (Outside of the obvious answer of >75th percentile)

Not sure what it has been like in past years, but I applied with a 167 and 3.7. When she called today she said that people with those stats last year were offered full tuition scholarships and that she expected it to be the same this year. She also said they try to give equal offers to people in each range and don't negotiate, for what it's worth.

In via call from Dean! She said to expect at least half tuition based on my super high GPA.
