Although Munger is by far the most popular living option for incoming SLS students, it is by no means the only option. Many couples (especially those with children) choose to live in the family-friendly Escondido Village. An overview of housing options for law students is available here. Living off campus close to the university is hella expensive, but necessary in certain situations (e.g. you own a pet that is not a companion or service animal).

Aid will def be a factor. Does anyone have any idea if HYS gives out very similar aid? And yea I doubt we can negotiate since it's need-basedbgt1995 wrote:I'm not sure but I really can't wait.

Also does anyone know whether they negotiate? Since they're need-based, I imagine they don't, right?

Re: Stanford Law School c/o 2020
I feel the same way as you bgt1995, aid is definitely a factor, just because it has to be, but I honestly can't see myself turning SLS down. I am so so freaking excited to go there. But if I somehow got $0, I would definitely have to think very long and hard about it. From perusing the previous years threads I think we'll start to learn in mid-March.hammy393 wrote:Aid will def be a factor. Does anyone have any idea if HYS gives out very similar aid?

I have heard you can actually negotiate, but only anecdotally from one SLS alum, so I have no idea if it's true. She encouraged me to reach out to Faye/financial aid and ask but I don't really feel comfortable doing that.

Re: Stanford Law School c/o 2020
I'm in an interesting place where my numbers (168/3.99) were good enough for the blackbox of Stanford, but not for H or Y, and not enough to get a full ride or significant money at any of the other T6. Even if I did get H though I would easily choose SLS, I'm from Boston originally so I want something new. So I just don't think I'll get a good enough offer from anywhere else to tempt me away from SLS. It's a new area of the country, fantastic programs for what I want to do (IP/environmental), and practically guarantees a job in whatever I want. So basically I'm just waiting for the fin aid package to confirm it.hammy393 wrote:^in a similar situation as you. Got a JS1 and am in at Y, but I'm leaning towards Stanford.

Yea with all that being said, SLS completely makes sense for you regardless of financial package

In today! What's up with the admitted student's page? It just says to contact the office.
Should I wait for an email with the log-in or will it be in the packet?

Hmmm, I guess it's not available anymore. I'm looking at the RSVP form and there's no option to request a student host.
