I've had it set that I was EDing Chicago for a bit now, but now that I'm actually submitting the app, I'm not 100% sure. Chicago would still be my first choice, but it's always nice to have options, esp if a lower ranked school gives me $$.

Could I get in RD? Two LSATs (164, 174) with a pretty good addendum for the 164. 3.45 GPA.

Or would I be better of EDing, since I'm not getting money from CCN anyways and they trump MVP $?
Or am I not getting money from anyone

Looking at law school numbers you're going to have to ED for a fighting chance. I wouldn't worry about this decision that much, considering a 3.4x GPA is not probably getting money from CCNMVP.

Thanks. It's what I figured. Thought I might have a shot at MVP money, but realize my GPA is well below their medians, even though my LSAT is above.

M or V might give you a little cash, but nothing substantial. Definitely ED to Chicago if it is your first choice.
