inter vivos transfer

A quick definition of inter vivos transfer:

An inter vivos transfer is when someone gives away or sells something they own while they are still alive. This is different from a transfer that happens after they die, which is called a testamentary transfer. Even if someone creates a trust that doesn't give the beneficiary anything until after they die, it still counts as an inter vivos transfer because they gave legal ownership of the property to the trust while they were alive.

A more thorough explanation:

An inter vivos transfer is a legal term that refers to the transfer of property or assets from one person to another during their lifetime. This type of transfer can be contrasted with a testamentary transfer, which is a transfer made in a will after death.

For example, if a parent gifts their child a car while they are still alive, this would be considered an inter vivos transfer. Similarly, if a person creates a trust and transfers assets into it during their lifetime, this would also be considered an inter vivos transfer.

It's important to note that even though the beneficiary of a revocable trust may not receive the benefit until after the donor's death, it is still considered an inter vivos transfer because legal title is transferred at the time the trust is created.

do we think most decisions will be out soon
13:06
seat deposits are soon
I speculate a wave before April 15th
i assumed they would be out by april 1 but i was clearly very wrong who knows
But tf do I know
i feel like it has to be by april 15, but read on reddit that NYU said they will get all decisions out by april 30th
13:07
i think i might pass on hofstra but I'll visit first and negotiate my aid
13:09
I'm guessing some schools will wait until after their 4/15 seat deposit dates to see how much they have left to give before sending another wave
NYU admissions is seemingly having a stroke this cycle though so
that makes sense @darkeagle
13:10
I hope so, it's my way of coping with the nothingness!

Kids, don’t be me at 34 watching people with lower LSAT scores get into all your favorite schools because you fucked your grades 12 years prior. Womp.

ur account says 13 years, not sure I want a liar in my school. Womp.
I mean college is 4 years so technically both 12 and 13 years is correct but very observant of you.

They have enough clout that they get away with it

NYU bought their clout with a windfall years ago, and it already ran out. That's why they have been on a slow decline despite their location. It's a good thing for them that they have so far to fall that they *could* turn it around.
