You should get scholarship information soon via regular mail (if applicable). The way it looks right now, a 168-169 will get you $7,000 per year, 170 will get you $9,500 per year and 172+ will get you $12,000 per year. This is all on top of the in-state tuition rate, which you will be offered if you get a merit scholarship. Sorry this is confusing, but if you scroll back on this thread, it will make more sense.

Cool -- I will scroll back another day. Right now it's time for bed. With a 167, maybe I'm looking at full tuition anyway.

Eh, you may get $5K/year.

Just got my first notice of the cycle -- dinged 11/9, via status checker. 171/3.36.

Evidently Texas is leading an anti-LSAT revolution this year. Being in the top 20 was just too stressful.

I know right? I feel like I just barely squeezed in.

Ya this doesn't shock me. It appears Texas is heavily emphasizing GPA this cycle.

Just got an e-mail telling me they are holding me over to Regular Decision from EA. UGH.

167/3.74/Out-of-state.

Sadly no, like everyone's been saying, it looks like they're trying to shoot up the GPA ladder.

My GPA is 3.53 ad my LSAT is 161. I didn't get dinged and am being held over for the regular review from EA. I'm not a URM. The sub 3.6 theory doesn't apply to everyone. (I know I'm still a long shot but just thought I would point out that there are exceptions)

but, you are in state. totally different game. i think its safe to say that the sub 3.6 might be true for out of staters. pj, i got dinged too with ~.1 higher gpa, same lsat, so don't worry you're not alone! hopefully we'll get some acceptances soon:)

Thanks Alm - it's just a little nervewracking getting the first rejection

Took about a week and a half from the time I got my app received e-mail to when I got the status checker e-mail.

applied on 10/30 and just got mine today. I want to know already!

the suspense is literally killing me.....my gpa apparently looks to be able to pass the out of state cut off but my 166 is living on the edge....

JazzOne · Post by **JazzOne** » Thu Nov 12, 2009 2:54 pm

Does anyone know the stats for the current 1L class? I'm talking about GPA, LSAT medians and 25/75 cutoffs. I should know where to find this, but I don't.

Current class though...I assume JazzOne wants to see if there's been an upward trend in the last few years.
