A quick definition of Rural Business-Cooperative Service:

Rural Business-Cooperative Service: A part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture that helps people in rural areas start and grow businesses. They give money to public groups and individuals to help them develop their businesses. We can call it RBS for short.

A more thorough explanation:

Rural Business-Cooperative Service

The Rural Business-Cooperative Service (RBS) is a government agency within the U.S. Department of Agriculture that provides loans and grants to public agencies and private parties to help develop businesses in rural areas.

  • A small town in rural America wants to start a new business, but they don't have enough money to get it off the ground. They apply for a loan from the RBS to help cover the costs of starting the business.
  • A farmer in a remote area wants to expand their farm and start selling their products to nearby towns. They apply for a grant from the RBS to help fund the expansion and marketing of their business.

The examples illustrate how the RBS provides financial assistance to individuals and organizations in rural areas to help them start or expand their businesses. The loans and grants provided by the RBS can help cover the costs of equipment, marketing, and other expenses that may be too expensive for rural businesses to afford on their own. By providing this support, the RBS helps to promote economic growth and development in rural communities.

Do you think you can use being on the Harvard Wl to ask for more money? Like say you'll withdraw if they give you more?
16:14
@Obtainingdreams: Unlikely

If 1 in 10 Harvard waitlistees in their class of 2027 get into HLS (average A % off the HLS waitlist), the school is better served by offering that student more $ than offering the other 9 in 10 more $ than they have to and the one that gets into HLS less than they need to
what do you guys think about the HLS WL? DO you think they're gonna give out a decent amount of A's still?
17:15
no

@NaughtyTeenyWeenyPebble: Looking at last cycle's stats, 16 people logged the date of their HLS waitlist offer and 6 of those were made by 5/19 (the other 10 came later). It's a small sample, and every cycle is different, but it's entirely possible more WL offers are coming

best tips for studying for Lsat and Applications going into senior year? feel like im so behind but know thats just my mind
[] abbas24
22:34
also tips while having a lower than outstanding gpa? My records show great progression though
22:47
1. Spend the time on the LSAT early, if you can hit your target score this summer it will free up lots of time for essays etc. later when things are busy
22:50
2. Depending on the schools you're looking at, being at/above LSAT median can be enough. The higher you can get your GPA, the better, but half the class is going to be at/below each median - that's how medians work
22:52
If you're above a median (particularly LSAT median) and the other stat isn't way below, numbers alone won't keep you out. Past that point, softs/essays/recs are what gets you in.
22:54
YMMV, it will matter what "lower than outstanding" means (3.7? 3.3?)
