…as a material change in my application when approaching scholarship reconsideration requests. **Scholarship Info: ** Campbell did not reconsider scholarships this cycle. They have 4–5 full rides to submit a separate application for, otherwise I think I hit their ceiling, which still leaves around ~50k+ over 3 yrs…

…That’s just my opinion. I am going on a full tuition scholarship. When it came down to Temple or about 40% off at BU, I was faced with a really tough decision. Ultimately, I chose Temple due to the scholarship, due to liking the people in the Groupme of classmates more, and because I think I’ll have better chances…
Doesn’t hurt to ask for a scholarship reassessment.
While it is possible to get into schools with scholarships applying late in the cycle, it will limit your options and provide a lot of waitlists at schools you’d likely be admitted to when applying in the fall. The LSAT is a huge factor and can drag a low GPA up.
…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…
apply early and apply often. you never know what school will accept you/offer a decent scholarship. also, apply to a wide range of schools, both ranking and location-wise
It’s cool to contain multitudes, but your application should tell one story If you ask, I’ll help you negotiate your scholarships
…ass gradient. Negotiated with PSU and UNLV. PSU raised scholarship to $30k per year. Thought it was a done deal, that is until UNLV swooped in with a truly awesome offer. They are offering me a Graduate Fellowship that decreases my tuition to the in-state rate and are upholding the 1/2 tuition offer they gave me.
Go where the scholarships take you.
…all fee waivers that I requested. Did not negotiate any scholarships or write any LOCIs for the schools I was waitlisted at. Withdrew from WashU in late March - I interviewed in late Oct and was essentially ghosted. I had chosen a school already and elected to withdraw before receiving a decision.
