Anybody know anything about it?

The Epstein thing? It confused me too. I gave up on it and maybe UCLA in general because I seemed unqualified for it and it still didn't seem to guarantee much. The website says most people have post graduate experience. I also just couldn't ever figure out what it gave other than summer funding.

I assumed it was a full ride when I first read it. Good to know it's not. Does UCLA offer merit money?

I'm not sure that it is not. I just never found anything indicating it was. Maybe they have info somewhere I just can't find.

I know they do offer merit money. They have two named scholarships one for people who applied ED and one for people who have overcome significant hardship. I don't qualify for either.

I think like most other law schools they also offer Deans scholarships ranging up to full tuition, but from what I can tell from law school numbers, they seem to rarely give out near full tuition, topping out at more like $110000.

I already have full tuition from WUSTL so I can't see myself really ending up there with a smaller scholarship and higher cost of living.
