Where should I go next fall? / Re: OSU or Temple ($$$$)?« on: March 31, 2008, 06:49:34 PM »
Is it just me, or is OSU one of the stingiest schools that there is in terms of scholarships? Their medians are around 3.6 and 161, and yet I constistently hear about individuals who far exceed these numbers and yet get little or no scholarship money. What's the idea behind this? OSU is one of the most wealthy schools in the country--I just don't get it.

Where should I go next fall? / Re: Michigan or Washington JD/PHD $$$$« on: March 31, 2008, 04:14:43 PM »Do you want to be a lawyer? I don't think this is necessarily correct. If you want to work near Washington, you can likely get a very good job with a UW degree. But really, the money is the biggest issue here. At Michigan, you'd be--I don't know--over $100,000 in debt upon graduation? On the other hand, you could be paid about $100,000 (is the stipend for 5 years?) to get a couple of quality degrees and graduate with no debt and a chance to be a very marketable candidate. On the other hand, if your sole goal is Big Law, I guess go to Michigan. 83

I have a theory. It's not based on much, but it might be true.
The schools get to see where else you applied. Possibly they sent you the letter about the scholarship based solely on your numbers. Then, after realizing that they were potentially your best option, waitlisted you in order to then accept you with little/no scholarship. I hope it's not true. 86

Have you been admitted anywhere else? These are three great schools, but each seems to have (a) drawback/s for you in particular. If you choose one of these three, I would suggest UVA or Duke, in that order.

This discussion will soon be moot. Does anyone really think the OP will not get into HYS? Those #'s are ridiculous.
The decision should be those three vs. $ at Columbia, which should be a fairly easy choice (to go to Yale/Harvard). 89
