Additional info & updates

All award info is three-year aggregate

Pitt acceptance did not come with an award, but an invitation to call to discuss size and terms of the award. By that time (5/16) Pitt was out of the running, so I declined.

Late acceptance off WL, and the pending financial offer, from GW is the only thing preventing me from hanging the big "A" on IU-Bloomington. Even though I considered, and still consider, GW as my preferred best landing spot for law school (outside of my big reach, Vandy) the offer would have to very substantial given the steep tuition (63K!) and outrageous COL to switch from attending a roughly comparable school.

With wait-list notification from Vandy, cycle has come full circle and must be considered a moderate success since no one out-and-out said no. Of course I didn't try to punch above my weight as I never aspired to t14 and have no dreams of pursuing BigLaw employment.

Despite my earlier withdrawal, Pitt conveyed a scholarship offer. It wasn't nearly enough to move the needle so I withdrew my acceptance - again.

Okay, barring an unforeseen miracle,like an acceptance from one of my wait-listed schools with close to a full schollie, it's Indiana. I'm moving to Bloomington next week with a month to settle in and prepare before orientation.Very happy with my choice and very excited to embark on the journey.
