Indiana Law is located in Bloomington, a beautiful, safe, and friendly community with all the amenities of a larger city. Indiana University is home to a large and diverse international student population with nearly 6,000 people from more than 110 countries who are welcomed by the community.

Tell us what's important to you
@DarkDecorousFerret: sorry confused because in the initial comment you said "but after the deadline there is a case to be made for asking for a reconsideration" - so assumed you meant the first deposit deadline.
Agreed, always assumed all negotiation is prior to the first deposit deadline so am hoping so money opens up across the board the week before the first deposits are due
I see now what you're saying about the first statement. Best of luck with any negotiations!
That balance of being post-deposit and negotiating, applies most if you get the A after 1 or both of the seat deposit deadlines has already passed. Otherwise, like you said, the negotiations happen ahead of the deadlines, deposit or not.
