Ok got a scholarship offer, too.
10k
but other schools offered a lot more and 10k is less than what I need to finance the LLM.

40,000 which I know is a lot but if I don’t find additional funding from another source unfortunately will still not be enough
Received scholarship offer today
could you share to us how much they offer?

I also got a 10k scholarship from Michigan, which is no way near what I asked them for/ needed. I was hopeful that I would get to attend because in the past Michigan has been very generous with LLM funding. So disappointed.

Same here (10K). Seems like they are open to negotiation though

You have to negotiate :) Leverage admissions/financial aid you received from other top law schools to secure a larger scholarship from Michigan (if that's where you want to enroll). This is how the game is played.
Before I received the scholarship decision from Michigan, I reached out and explained I really wanted to enroll at Michigan, but needed XX for scholarship or else I wouldn't be able to go. I attached offers/scholarship info from other top schools and Michigan gave me the scholarship I needed/wanted to enroll.

And what about if you're still waiting answers from other Schools? Is it possible to "just" negotiate in a reasonable way (I've asked for X because I need it because of xyz reasons?). The scholarship I was awarded is low and I don't think I can afford it ????

I mean, sure. But like in any negotiation, you need some type of leverage. Everybody has a sad story about needing financial aid to study in the US...
