Hey everyone, first-time poster here. I’m looking for some strategy advice on handling a late-cycle score increase. I applied this cycle with my initial LSAT score and was accepted into a few schools with scholarships, but nothing over 50% tuition. I also ended up on a couple of waitlists at my top choices. I just got my April results back and I jumped 6 points from my previous score! I’ve already sent a quick update to the schools where I’m waitlisted, but I’m wondering if there is anything specific I should emphasize in a formal LOCI to help seal the deal now that my stats have changed? Also, for the schools where I’m already accepted, is it possible or common to ask for more scholarship money this late in the game? If so, how should I approach that email without sounding ungrateful for the initial offer? With seat deposit deadlines looming, I’m curious if anyone has successfully navigated a late-cycle score jump like this or has tips on negotiating with admissions when the clock is ticking. Thanks in advance for any insight!
