(I'm a 3L who still lives in Regents. I'm DC-bound for one year for a clerkship but my non-law husband is staying behind and we're negotiating with Regents and price information for 1br and 2br would be very helpful to us!)

It's $100 off their normal listing, which you can find on their website.

Based on nothing more than speculation, I'd be really surprised if it did. It's a pretty big place.

I think you underestimate Chicago's legendary social awkwardness

I sure hope not. I plan on doing my part.

So how crucial is it to have FAFSA and Needaccess turned in by the Feb 1 deadline? My mom just got her W2 today and getting her pin/doing taxes/filling everything out might put me past the deadline.

Edit: Scratch that. Just saw that it's Feb 15.

Do we need our parents' info? I thought they didn't take that stuff into account for grad students.

I think FAFSA no, need access yes.

I sat in. Was just two 2Ls answering questions with a moderator screening questions. You didn't miss much

It's understandable why they don't release more indepth 2L summer data, but that really reveals how much Chicago kills it.

70-90% employment at firms for 2L summer! Maybe I'll get a job after all...

Don't count out being Corsair'd

but really last year's leaked OCI data had something like 72% of those eligible for OCI getting a V100 position.

It really is incredible. I don't understand how they have such a low yield considering their placement.

I'm proud of UChi for stepping up to the full disclosure plate alongside Yale.

BigJohnso · Post by **BigJohnso** » Sat Jan 28, 2012 9:52 am

Wow. That data is really impressive.

Probably the fear of hearing that it's the place "where fun goes to die" which from what I hear (from current students) is more-so applicable to the undergrads.

I am a 2015 Admit and I'm visiting this Friday as I will not be able to attend ASW. I am very interested in visiting UChicago as it is one of my top schools for many reasons.

Welcome to the thread and good luck. Fucking loved me visit a couple weeks ago.

Just though I would mention that I got the Welcome package from U of C on saturday. I also live like 10 minutes away from the school so other people should be getting them soon.

Champion · Post by **Champion** » Mon Jan 30, 2012 2:42 pm

Just received the welcome package today. So scholarship info should be coming in the next few weeks?

Feb 15 was the first report I saw on last year's thread.

It will probably be later this year, since the filing deadline was Feb. 1 last year and it's Feb. 15 this year.

Good luck y'all. On my end, I don't think anyone applying ED gets scholarships.

Any east coasters get their package?

Seems a few ED people got small scholarships last year (15k).
