Haggling Over Law School Scholarships

We told you a few weeks ago that the National Law Journal suggests times have never been better for getting into a great law school and negotiating a good scholarship. The Wall Street Journal made the same argument this weekend in "More Law Schools Haggle on Scholarships," noting that in the past 10 years, the amount of scholarship dollars awarded to law students has nearly tripled and that for the 2011-12 school year, law schools awarded over $1 billion in scholarships.  Wish you'd heard about this before? The story also says that even some top tier law schools are still taking applications, long past their traditional deadline, for the 2012 class.
