Got in today! Just waiting to hear about merit scholarships. Apparently we won't here until the 1st week of March. Was anyone given a hint for what they might get? When Richmond called, they told me that I should receive a full scholarship, but that they can't officially tell me that until March. I was hoping the U would give me a hint.

I got my phone call on Monday. Still waiting on the packet to come in the mail. No scholarship info in the packet? That's a bummer.

Me too! Definitely the biggest packet I have yet received from a law school.

I'm assuming that a significant portion of you are from Utah, but for those who are not, I would be happy to answer any questions about the area/school that might make your decision easier.

How long do admissions decisions typically take?

So is everyone living in Salt Lake area already? Or do some people come from out of state?

How much did you guys receive?

[sp_crowell]

They offered me a seriously generous chunk of change. I am at or above both 75ths, though

[nyp165]

75% of non-resident, was hoping for a bit more honestly.

[Moabit]

Are there any stipulations?

What percentage of tuition were you awarded?

I hear that Utah is pretty good about giving in-state after the first year. Will they honor the 75% even if you become in-state? So will the take 75% off of your in-state tuition for year 2 and 3?
