To those accepted off the waitlist, any mention of scholarships? I received another feeler email but given that it's almost August and I have another good offer in place, interest is certainly down especially if there is no aid.

I got off waitlist this week but did not receive any scholarship after asking.

I am still on the waiting list. No response so far and I think the orientation is next Monday. Can someone confirm the orientation date?

I rejected Fordham in May with a 30k offer. Today they emailed me bumping up my offer to 40k a year- anyone else have a similar experience?

How common of a practice is this among law schools? The idea that a school would bump a rejected offer, days before orientation is to begin, leaves a bad taste in my mouth. On the bright side, this is nowhere near as bad as GW's poaching of AU (44 transfers!)

I had never heard of this until I received the offer. But I'm not going to complain
