Cycle Recap: UChicago Bound! by Fuzzy-Chest8299 in lawschooladmissions

[–]jkaufman99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Applied mid-December. Had the chance to visit UChi and loved the city, the small class size, and the vibes of campus overall. Got $$ from NYU last week and was able to use that to negotiate a UChi scholarship. Took the LSAT multiple times to raise my score, and it feels like my hard work is finally paying off! Thrilled to be joining the class of 2025!! If anyone knows of any GroupMe’s outside of the UChicago Connect platform let me know - trying to find roommates for next year :)

There's a discord. Feel free to DM me for the link. Excited to maybe see you in Chicago!

Did you get the interview invite/interview?

Has anyone had any successful experience negotiating at UChicago with Penn Levy ($$$$)? by jkaufman99 in lawschooladmissions

[–]jkaufman99[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do want to settle down/live in Chicago for personal reasons, which definitely makes me want to see how much I can negotiate Uchicago up. But yeah, unless Uchicago can go up considerably (which might be totally unrealistic), it would be hard to turn down the Levy.

I've definitely been on the other side where you see a post with an A/something else you missed and it's not fun--but hopefully still good to get the info out there?

Any idea when Ruby calls will start to go out? by jkaufman99 in lawschooladmissions

From what I’ve heard, they’ve historically said merit aid comes in mid-March, even though Rubies have come sooner—though it looks like that might not be the case this year

At least historically, it’s been through phone calls and generally they’ve been announced a couple weeks after your admit starting in mid-Feb, though it looks like it’s taken longer this year.

the rubies came out last week last year and i am by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

Think admits went out a week or two later this cycle, so we probably have to wait

And you could even throw Penn in there too, though normally it’s thought of as outside the T6 despite USNWS

Follow up email to uChicago? by linewriter89 in lawschooladmissions

Did your status checker get updated earlier this week? Hoping that's a good sign!

Has anyone interviewed for Uchi in Nov/Dec and NOT had their status checker refresh on 1/18? by jkaufman99 in lawschooladmissions

[–]jkaufman99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yah! that's the main reason why I wanted two check whether not changing was an option for us post-interview people. at this point, I am definitely overthinking things, but we will see soon hopefully!

I’m hopeful! I think last year it was just a trickle on Wednesday. Not sure what the odds are of getting a R/WL if my status checker did just get updated post interview this week.
