I'm not sure if this helps anyone but I was honored to receive a full tuition scholarship on Friday, called an Eminent Scholar award. I do not think it is the Moritz award and I received no nomination/semi finalist information. I can't wait to go visit the school. Go Buckeyes! :mrgreen:

My app has been complete since January 6th and still haven't received a decision. I'm going to deposit at Cinci this week but really would've liked to hear something from OSU by this point. :/

Congrats! That's awesome. I thought the Moritz was the only full tuition scholarship available, so that's good to hear.

Full tuition for in-state or out-of-the-state?

Should I be concerned that I haven't heard back yet? Went complete in late January.

Is anyone a semi-finalist for the Moritz Merit scholarship? If so, do you know when they will match semi-finalists up with interviewers?

Still Radio silence for me too--around 75% for LSAT and a little below 75% for GPA

Complete end of January

At this point I don't think anyone should be overly concerned with not hearing back, given how slow the process has been. :)

Well if your first choice is Ohio State, wait until the deadline to pay at Cinci (last minute). Also, some schools say you can pay 1/2 of the deposit. If so, do that and then wait to see if Ohio State comes in. If it does not, then Cinci is still a solid option. They have risen in the rankings! But, then so has Ohio State :-)

Awesome, thanks for the responses. That makes me feel much better, I guess we'll just have to wait it out a little longer. I'm above 75% GPA and slightly above median for LSAT.

In-state, but they said I can declare residency my second year.

Complete 1/25. 75th percentile LSAT and 25th percentile GPA. Out of state applicant. Still haven't heard anything either. At this point this is the only school I haven't heard back from yet.

It took me forever to hear back from OSU too. I got my acceptance finally two weeks ago.

Thanks for the tip about paying 1/2! Still nothing from Ohio State.

I feel like they wait so long to strong arm people into accepting lower than expected $$. Just saying.

Has anyone heard anything this week? I'm anxious to hear from them & not wanting to put in a deposit elsewhere.

Still nothing... I wrote to them this morning to see what is going on--I really would rather not deposit at a bunch of schools if I can help it...

I'll post what they respond to me

Shame on this school for taking so long to get back to me. It's getting a little bit ridiculous at this point.
