I wouldnt ED. Since you dont have a GPA, your LSAT may be very valuable to schools in the lower t14. Id just apply RD and wait for the $$$ to be thrown around.

I agree though as a disclaimer I do not know much about Inter. Applications.
I would look and see where your LSAT score lies in regards to 25, 50, and 75 percetniles for a rough estimate of where you have a shot and considering you have no GPA I would probably look closer to the 50/75 schools.

But I hope to get in a top 10. ED seems safer than RD.
Are UVA and Cornell that much different in NYC placement? I haven't heard any applicants straight from abroad got merit based scholarships from lower t14.

I think the highest medians are 170 for schools outside of t6. But although their medians are lower than NYU, they also admit fewer students like me. I don't know if that's a factor needs to be considered.

Dont ED. No GPA is practically median GPA.

Don't ED.

IMO as an international student with a 170, in at Michigan and below. Out at YHSCCN. The rest of the t14 will depend on your softs/WE.

Has Michigan taken in any student directly from abroad before?
