There's a survey somewhere on the Admitted Students website to fill out if you're interested in student groups hosting you.

Because of the GRE? I feel like this is not such a big deal -probably overhyped here because of the generally LSAT-acing TLS community. Looking around the rest of the internet a lot of the response seems positive.

I would imagine you need a near-perfect GRE score next year to get in and it could be great for boosting STEM admits, those with graduate degrees, and international applicants. Who knows though?

I got David Kennedy's "A world of Struggle" in the mail today. He's a leading expert of international law. I was surprised!

No, his latest book on the Roberts Court. Looks like an interesting read.

Oh no way! I guess great minds think alike. You should try hooking up with another HLS admit and splitting the Airbnb with them. It'd make it a lot cheaper and more fun.

Trying to crowdsource here: Which T-14 full ride (if any) would you be willing to take over HLS? Assuming zero aid from Harvard and an interest in PI/gov work

question of my life RN. LIPP is darn good in some ways but not the same as a scholarship needless to say....

please someone make this decision for me ?
Lol all I want is for someone to come and say "this is the right answer." Sigh. At least it's a good problem to have. Do you mind sharing which one(s) you're considering?

Personally deciding between Harvard and Penn Levy

Are most people planning on staying for the Diversity Day during ASW? I'm interested in learning more about the Women'a Law Association, but feel sort of weird staying for a Diversity Day as a cis/het/white woman?
