In Reply To: I'm wondering what my chances are of getting accepted/money at the following schools: Yale, Stanford, Chicago, UPenn, Virginia, Duke, Vanderbilt, BC My undergrad gpa was 3.78 (Carnegie Mellon) and LSAT is 175. I'm working as a paralegal right now but I understand there are many, many people doing the same thing and trying to get into law school so I don't think this will help me. Any thoughts are welcome, especially regarding scholarships because I don't know how I'll be able to pay should I get into a school that I want to go to.
Message: you can probably go to Chicago for 1/3 of the price. Yale does not give out any "merit money" and I believe this is true for Stanford as well. I have no real knowledge about the other schools you ask about but I would be surprised if they asked you to pay anything near full tuition.
