3.1/170 - UW/SeattleU?

I am hoping for a shot at UW. I don't really have any softs other than working the whole time during UG. I am a state resident and I am currently at UW for my UG. Strong upward grade trend (probably going to graduate with a 3.7 for my program). I might possibly intern at the department of assigned council in the spring.

Any idea what my chances are?

And what of the possibility of any scholarship money from SeattleU?

I don't know about that, lawschoolpredictor puts me slightly above 50% on their admissions index, and from what I hear they weigh GPA more heavily than lsat. My gpa is about as far below their 25 as my lsat is above their 75. I just don't know what to make of that 50% though, or "strong consider" if that means 50% chance, or 75%, or whatnot. The 3.7 in my OP was only my program GPA. My actual gpa will probably sit around 3.1.

Well your lsat is 4 points higher than their 75th percentile and 7 points above their median. I think they'd be pretty happy to get an lsat like that since most people with similar numbers go to a top 30 instead of UW. So yeah my guess is in and you could probably leverage your better offers for some money. lsn is kinda hard for UW because there aren't a lot of data points and they rejected a 175/3.6 so who knows, but the above is my best guess with reasons.
