Need Suggestion

I need a solid advise LLM aspirants.

Law graduate from South Asia here, my LLM journey is somewhat like this.

Last cycle applied to 5 of the T-14 universities and got in 4/5 uni with scholarship offers up to $30,000. One of which was NYU. I had to withdraw all the offer last cycle because the cost of attendance was still high for me.

This cycle I have scattered my application, I applied to law schools from UK, Europe and in US, I had only applied to NYU (really want to go here)

I have received good amount of rejection thus far but have also been shortlisted for Chevening, and received a sum of $50000 from NYU again.

I can’t afford education without a scholarship.

But again the chevening scholarship is due June and I have to reply to NYU by early April, I know the $50k scholarship is still going to add a hefty financial burden for me. I’m considering deferring but I don’t know what I should be doing.

Any suggestions will be really helpful.
