That's awesome! I don't think I got anything, lol. Did get a call from a 2L this morning, asking if I have any questions though
SHark313
14:48
Mine went up 1,500/year, underwhelming lol
Blairb91
15:31
Did they email you, or did you just see it in your portal?

Should we expect a wave this week?
ExpensiveDemonicFaun
20:38
Really upset that I was flat out rejected with a 172 lsat and 3.2 gpa Applied back in October
ExpensiveDemonicFaun
20:38
Thought I'd be at least waitlisted
Blairb91
13:01
@ExpensiveDemonicFaun: Ugh, sorry to hear that! That is crazy - maybe YP for your LSAT score? But yeah, I'd expect at least a WL too.

lol, how do I get a scholarship reconsideration if I have no other A's
ColossalLuckyInsect
12:45
I was hoping to get 75%+
dog
13:07
They only reconsider if you can provide comparably ranked school scholarshps
Blairb91
13:13
@ColossalLuckyInsect: same. I'm gonna try after ASW anyway
Blairb91
13:13
I'll probably say I haven't heard back from comparable schools but that I find W&L so compelling that I'd deposit immediately for a bit more or something like that
Blairb91
13:14
No harm in trying
Blairb91
13:16
They also did a few unsolicited increases recently. Maybe they'll do more after deposit deadlines. I'm planning to deposit if I don't hear back from UNC or get the WL.
