Does anyone know if all the scholarships they offer are conditional?
11:10

I'm nervous
3.54 and 167 LSAT, will i get a full-ride plus stipend? Are they all conditional?
nvm, full ride. But I am almost certainly NOT going to this school, so someone who is on the waitlist will have a lucky day
21:13
@AbrasiveTiresomeReindeer: You must be the first A I have seen recorded for this cycle one LSD
21:51
on^*
Really? they got back to me just 5 days after going "under review" But again, I am 99% NOT going to this school, so someone who is on the WL will have their lucky day!
20:54
@AbrasiveTiresomeReindeer: I think its bc your stats are higher then the 75th so you're an easy accept. Good Luck with the rest of your cycle!
