Penn:

ASW: 3/27-3/28
Preview Day: 4/13

Stipends: $100 for travel within the Northeast, $200 from farther distances; limited to students for whom visiting "will prove an uncommonly demanding financial burden"

How do you show you have "an uncommonly demanding financial burden"??

No idea. The website doesn't elaborate; it just says to ask for a reimbursement form while you're there.

Do schools subsidize hotel costs at all?

Do schools subsidize hotel costs at all?

I guess I should have mentioned this too. ONU has their own hotel on campus, visits and orientation stay free.

Depends on the school. Some schools offer free hotel stays, some allow hotel costs to be reimburse and some don't offer anything.

I thought Stanford's remains the same from year to year? If that's the case, it can be included now?

No clue... They just keep it the same exact dates regardless what days of the week they fall on? I can update it if that's the case. I've been sent a few others via pm and have updated those as well.

I emailed UVA and Michigan about my upcoming visits (non-ASW) and was told $0 for Mich and $400 for UVA.

Chicago is 4/9-4/12. No info about stipends yet.

[hearsay77]

William & Mary is 3/20 - 3/21, no travel assistance.

I know Vanderbilt is already on the list, but more details about the stipend:
Up to $400 for flight, up to $50/night for 2 night hotel stay, and up to $20 for transportation between airport and law school.

kinda late to the party here but if you're not considering Vandy b/c you're looking at T14, get a god damn fee waiver and throw them an app. Free trip to/from Nashville w/ a little hotel stipend for all admits; totally worth it.

[Mack.Hambleton]

Really no $$ from Michigan?

I emailed admissions to double check this morning and they said that there are limited need-based scholarships to attend ASW but none at all for individual visits.

This.

UCLA has stipends (they told me on the phone when I was admitted). Don't know how much or details.

[tortsandtiaras]

Does American give any stipends?

[IsThisForReal]

I think Alabama is pretty much a free trip whenever you want to go, but I don't know the specifics.

[ChemEng1642]

FYI for NYU on the main page it says April 10-11th but when you go to RSVP it says 16th-17th...

[hillz]

Alabama's open house dates are February 13 and March 6, but they are supposed to release more info this month.

[whitespider]

Everything is updated. Keep 'em coming!

[hearsay77]

I called WUSTL on friday and they said their max is $100. has anyone been successful in getting more than that?

[lilith66]

I emailed UCLA today about traveling from the northeast, $200 stipend
