Anyone going to Scholars Weekend?
@Ilikeya: I am
I am committed and in need of a roommate and housing. if anyone is interested add me on Instagram @christian.lopez.cl
should i email the school and ask if they've received my updated lsat score since my file was placed on hold for that reason or should i wait it out?
I would reach out to them.
Thanks!
Anyone know if I could negotiate a stipend? I received a full ride but cost of living is high
I not exactly sure if they allow it or not, but you lose nothing if you try to do so. Worst case scenario they tell you they do not negotiate the stipend.
how long does it take to go UR

For those who have been admitted: did you receive your scholarship info in the same email that notified you that you were accepted? Or was it sent in a separate email?

@Christian061901: yea, but apparently I did receive aid, it was just lost in the mail. They resent it.
