Admitted to Case Western Reserve University…predictions on where you would be able to get in and what scholarships might look like. lawschooldata.org/search is, in my opinion, the best source of this data but lsatdemon.com/scholarships, mylsn.info/r/pre-law/admissions/search/, and 7sage.com/predictor/ are also useful. Seeing what kind of schools you have a…

…schools are not worth paying sticker price at. Outside scholarships are also your friend, if you put in the work. Best of luck to you, Internet stranger! Godspeed. Unless otherwise noted, all scholarships were received with acceptance. I wrote no LOCIs, I did write most Why X essays, and the only update I sent was…
…Got a 164 in the June 2021 LSAT in hopes of increasing scholarship offers and getting off WLs. Worked for Georgetown, GW law. Scholarship increase at USD. If I could do this all over again, I would apply early, early, early. It’s better to wait a cycle, have your best application, best LSAT score, best everything,…
Relax as much as possible before LSAT, try to take your mind off it until the last second! Don’t decide against a school preemptively based on scholarship data. I almost didn’t apply to the school that gave me some of the most money, the one I ended up going to, because I thought they wouldn’t give me any money! At…
…options I received and the leverage they gave me during scholarship reconsideration. Apply early: Shoot for maybe before November, but you’ll be fine at most schools if you apply later. Some schools like USC and Georgetown take FOREVER if you apply past November. Be realistic: Always make sure you have a good…
…(March applicant), but still received competitive scholarships from all acceptances.
…week later basically saying “I would attend regardless of scholarships as Georgetown is my top choice”. It was radio silence from that feeler for the next month until I finally got the A! Don’t give up, don’t email annoying them every day, and don’t forget to lean on your support systems!
Scholarships are weird and take a long time for some schools. Be patient and do good research to see which schools are historically generous with aid. Did not have much luck negotiating but I only tried for the University of Maryland.
…environmental programs. Virginia came in with the lowest scholarship offer of any of my acceptances, and UCLA was just a little too far away from home, so it became a battle between Duke and Michigan. My parents earned graduate degrees at Duke, so I was certainly leaning in that direction, but Michigan just felt…
…school you can. You might be surprised. Try to negotiate scholarship amount even if you read online about a policy of non-negotiation. I was success in negotiating at least one additional amount. A small one, but every penny counts. Choosing Schools Don’t let U.S. News rule your decisions- Be sure to check on law…
…wanted to be a lawyer! It helped me land specific program scholarships that I couldn’t have gotten otherwise. Create a story for yourself! You’re the main character!
…to* alma mater *(UF) - given acceptance and full ride scholarship! If you’re even halfway considering your undergrad institution - APPLY
…This was totally unexpected but it came with enough scholarship money to make my decision easy. My LOCI focused on their IP concentration, my interest in staying in Minneapolis after graduation, and on a change that occurred with my resume. Acceptance came was an e-mail followed by a phone call. How did I know this…
Tier 3 Softs: First-gen, low-income; prestigious merit scholarship; T10 Undergrad Submitted diversity statement and optional essays. Applied later in cycle (December-January apps)
Don’t shoot for the highest ranked schools. Shoot for the schools where your stats are above the median. You’ll get scholarships and will have smaller debt.
…due to living costs in the Seattle area. I negotiated Scholarship money with MSU from 30k/yr up to 32k. It sounds like that is about the typical bump that MSU offers. Wayne State asked for an additional addendum for my GPA, and then never responded, despite my being UR for almost 5 months. Per reddit, this is not…
