My status checker just switched to decision rendered and there is a seat deposit fee, so I am assuming I got accepted! When should I expect to receive the official email/mail? And does that correspondence come with scholarship info if you get some?

my status checker changed with a seat deposit!!! I think this means admitted?!
legallybrunette-law
14:29
is the seat deposit for kentucky binding?
LegallyBrunnette2023
8:38
i don't think so - I don't think it's refundable but you can pay the seat deposit and if you decide somewhere else then you'd pay the other school's seat deposit
LegallyBrunnette2023
8:40
yeah, looking it up it's not binding. If you pay the 400 dollar seat deposit but decide to go somewhere else later, you'll just be out the 400

@LegallyBrunnette2023: thank you so much. I just wanted to make sure, the wording in the email had me confused

Is anyone else sad about their scholarship offer? I asked for them to reconsider and was rudely told no. My friend is a 1L there and she said it's because they're broke.
legallybrunette-law
14:07
yes they are in trouble for owing money, I planned to ask the admissions counselor I am meeting with when I go tour about it.

@swiftieatlaw: I didn't get a lot of money either - Im fortunate that I am instate and worked fulltime before going but it's still stressing me out to have to take out loans. I dont think UK will lose their accreditation but it's still worrisome considering the 18 million dollars owed.

@swiftieatlaw: are you an instate applicant? or out of state?
