spicysalsa

10:56

can you still get a scholarship if youre waitlisted and then offered a spot?

CleanImperfectEagle

10:44

I don't think tbh so they have this scholarship that unless you're offered admission before 4/1 then you are eligible but if it's after you're not eligible maybe some scholarship but not a lot

MarloweTerrier23

20:22

how likely is it to get off the waitlist here? I know the t14s are basically impossible. Was waitlisted at four. But what about penn state law if at the medians. I feel like some of the waitlist are just soft rejections. I was waitlisted at both penn state schools

CleanImperfectEagle

12:55

I feel like it's extremely low i've been asking them and they just told me they're not sure if they're gonna even have spots

CleanImperfectEagle
