A quick definition of donum gratuitum:

Donum gratuitum means a gift given without expecting anything in return. It can be a physical object or money. Anatomical gift is when someone donates their organs for medical research or transplant. Charitable gift is when someone donates to a non-profit organization to help others. A completed gift is when the giver no longer has control over the gift. A gift causa mortis is a gift given when the giver thinks they might die soon. Inter vivos gift is a gift given during the giver's lifetime. Testamentary gift is a gift given in a will. Vested gift is a gift that is absolute and not dependent on any conditions.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A gift made without consideration, as most gifts are.

Examples:

  • John gave his friend a watch as a birthday present. This is an example of a donum gratuitum because John gave the watch without receiving anything in return.
  • Susan donated money to a charity. This is also an example of a donum gratuitum because Susan gave the money without expecting anything in return.

These examples illustrate the definition of donum gratuitum because they both involve giving something without receiving anything in return. In other words, they are gifts made without consideration.

Anyone know how long it takes to get aid package after getting admitted to UChicago or Northwestern?
I’d ask in the t14 chat bc lol it may be a bit until you can get someone who can answer that question here

@syddak: Oof tough spot. Congrats on the As. Did either indicate either via email/mail that they would be following up with aid, and if so, did they provide a time frame? It may be acceptable to email them and indicate seat deposits are fast approaching and you are curious if you can expect further info (aid) from the school to aid u in ur decision..
