3.81/172 Scholarships
Posted: Sun Aug 16, 2015 11:10 am
Hello,
Sorry if I'm cluttering the board with a rudimentary inquiry but I tried using myLSN or whatever and it was confusing in terms of scholarship info.
I currently have a 3.814 GPA, upward trend (my sophomore and junior year GPA together is around 4.0, my junior year GPA alone is above 4.0). I attend an Ivy League university and will graduate with a poli sci degree.
LSAT score is 172 which was more or less what I expected to score, don't really want to take it again.
I'm involved in multiple campus organizations and have held 3 different leadership positions, and I work as a head TA for a class. I have also worked 2 legal internships over summers. Nothing groundbreaking, really.
I'm white and from the average part of the income bell curve; my personal statement is not going to be inspirational or tear-jerking, but it'll be written well.
I realize that, aside from Yale, etc. I have good shots at top schools, but when do you start getting into scholarship money range? I'll be financing my own legal education and need to factor $$ into my decision making, and don't want any surprises in the spring. What's the general money reward for people of my ilk?
Thanks, helpful strangers.
