I would echo Haley12, although I did the Skype interview. I had Mary Ann Clifford and it was a very comfortable conversation. It was obvious that she had reviewed my PS/Resume and app prior (she wished me a happy early birthday). But the questions were pretty standard. Much like a lot of previous posters I felt like she was really trying to sell me on WUSTL (but in a positive honest way, not overly pushy). Good luck!

Also, late poster/lurker, I went complete on the 9 Jan, interview request on the 10th, and interviewed on 14 Jan.

Accepted in November, haven't heard anything about scholarship. In the meantime, heard about scholarships from both Michigan and Cornell, both of which I got into a month and a half later then Wash U. Weird and kinda annoying

Applied around the same time and also haven't heard anything.

Yield protection maybe? Did you do a Why WUSTL? I was in a similar situation so I visited, chatted with the dean, wrote a Why WUSTL and got a decision and scholarship within 10 days of submitting.

Checking in :) I submitted my app 1/14 and just got an interview invite. Is that a good sign? I'm way below their LSAT median but in their 75th percentile for GPA. Anyway, I guess I'll schedule the interview soon.

I did not do any of that stuff, but my numbers are way below some people tht they admit. I think that they will eventually admit me, but maybe they have offered too much money already and are waiting for some withdrawals before accepting me and giving me a scholly offer. That's what I'm thinking, anyways. I don't think YP is the answer unless they think that the only way they can get me is with more money than they have available.
I don't think WUSTL YPs. I also don't think they are in danger of running out of money. I'm sure you'll hear back.

interviewed 1/5, accepted 1/9, just now received full tuition plus annual stipend. No other responses from other schools (submitted 1/3) but hopefully this bodes well for my cycle! Leaving school debt free sounds mighty appealing.

Aw man, I interviewed 1/13 and haven't heard back yet since then. Seems like people are getting quicker decisions. Oh well :cry:

Interviewed yesterday (1/17) and admitted today. Haven't heard about scholarship info.

Based on what other people have said, it seems like people with quick decisions got their scholarship information 1-2 weeks after their decision. Is that roughly accurate?

That's what I've heard so far, but on LSN it doesn't look like any January admits have received scholarship info yet.

FWIW, I was accepted last Wednesday and got my scholarship info today.
