…email. Scholarship came afterwards. I attempted to negotiate to hopefully match the offer with Texas A&M, however I only got a few thousand dollars more. I am happy that I got another acceptance at a school like Wisconsin, but ultimately had to turn them down over cost. Texas A&M University - Result: Attending. July…

Admitted to University of Wisconsin…school more likely to increase my scholarship offer in negotiations.” (I regret applying to the schools that gave me CAS waivers where I knew I wouldn’t attend It was a waste of time and may have went to another student who could have used it more.) Apply for a fee waiver through LSAC if you think it remotely could…

…kinda weird to not get the full-tuition here. Plan to negotiate. 1/29-2/2 - UNC hold, which feels like a soft WL based on last year’s data. – TAMU WL… – BC WL… – IU negotiation did not work :/ 2/5-2/9 - no decisions, applied for UCI PSS. 2/19-2/23 - OSU A, scholly coming later. 2/26-3/1 - Emory A w/ $$$. 3/4-3/8 -…
…Aim for money. seventh, don’t be afraid of scholarship negotiation. eighth, get recommendation letters early. Bonus points if they are coherent to your essays. Ninth, Don’t apply to Loyola University Chicago. tenth, It’s going to be okay. Don’t get stuck on the big law hype train.
A cohesive narrative and clear idea of what you want to do as a lawyer goes a long way! Also apply as early as possible so you have max time for scholarship negotiations (and peace of mind).
…so I will likely end up there this fall. I attempted to negotiate with Illinois using the other three offers, but unfortunately they did not offer me any more money. They of course have the best Chicago placement out of any of those options, but the scholarship offers I had from the other schools ultimately made…
…for all application fees and all but 10 CAS fees. Did not negotiate with any school since most got back to me after I was happy with other offers.
…acceptance. From what I’ve heard they generally don’t negotiate scholarships. WashU (WL) - Did not submit any supplemental essays. Invited to interview in March after applying in December. Interview felt fast but went for the allotted time. Seems like a 50/50 conversion rate interviews. BYU (A) - Applied late in…
…are historically generous with aid. Did not have much luck negotiating but I only tried for the University of Maryland.
Apply early. Negotiate scholarships.
…consider going there or it was useful for scholarship negotiation with another school.
…Apply to more than 6 schools if you can. You’ll need negotiating schools plus you don’t want to have to stress apply late. FAFSA - if you add your parents income only those schools who require it use it. If you’re under 26 more than likely you’ll need it. If you apply to more than 10 schools, you start the process…
…(it sucks having to scramble last minute to do visits and negotiate scholarships and look for housing), so still apply early if you can. **Why X’s are an art. **- Schools already know about their clinics, classes, and professors. They do not want to see regurgitated information from their website. They want to know…
