WE LOVE YOU, JOHANN.
Considering the ED scholly and considering LSN, it seems that NU gives 150k rather than a full scholly. As my interviewer described, "[NU] likes you to have some skin in the game."paglababa wrote:oh shit, got my scholarship. Anyone get a full? What's the highest possible scholly, 150k?

Nice. I would appreciate if anyone with 150k from the AJD program would PM me to confirm it has been awarded. Or higher, though it seems consensus is that 150k is highest.whereskyle wrote:Considering the ED scholly and considering LSN, it seems that NU gives 150k rather than a full scholly.

Do you think they will give an extension to April? What should one mention? Ok to say I am waiting for a scholarship at another school that I have an interview for?fruitoftheloom wrote:Re: financial aid. I know several AJDs who have negotiated their financial aid packages. Be sure to do that. You can find information in other places on TLS. Also, if you need an extension on the deposit, you can email them explaining what / what you need.

I was in a similar situation last year. They did give me an extension until April...it was kind of messy because I found out about the scholarship interview after NU had already given me a two week extension, so I had to ask for another, which they were nice enough to give me. It ended up not helping that much anyway because the decision timeline for the other scholarship ended up going past mid April, and NU had given me until April 10 or so.paglababa wrote:Do you think they will give an extension to April?

I gave a tour of the law school and sat on the "Career Guidance" panel. I thought the prospective students asked a lot of good questions and I think we delivered candid, honest answers. I think visitors heard a lot of good flavor from the panels and hopefully enjoyed meeting Dean Rodriguez and attending the other mock class sessions.mirroroferised7 wrote:Okay, can we get some reports on the AJD ASW?

Yup, agreed. Definitely underestimated the camaraderie shared by the AJDs (both within graduating classes, and across graduating classes).kcdc1 wrote:For anyone that may be looking for a visiting admit to chime in, I will say MrHart's description was accurate. It was a pleasant and informative day, and the student panelists were very helpful. The admitted AJD's that I met were also impressive.
