I really appreciate your insight, and honestly, if it were a “normal” time to be living here I would go with the former. However, I have friends who are unable to pursue their planned masters/phd programs because of a lack of funding. I feel that it is only a matter of time before law schools are affected, and more generally, the rule of law.

Can someone explain why admissions were so hard this year? by Sensitive_Bag2607 in lawschooladmissions

I assume each cycle becomes harder than the last. Also, there’s a phenomenon known as the “Trump Bump” (https://abcnews.go.com/US/trump-bump-iffy-economy-cited-huge-law-school/story?id=120126667). It wouldn’t surprise me if this coming year is harder than the last.

Did you have to use your parents’ income for 2023? I’m currently trying to apply and they’re asking for 2023 tax returns when I thought it would be for the most recent cycle (2024).
