L&C v GW
Posted: Fri Apr 02, 2010 12:15 pm
Alright, so I've been admitted to both Lewis and Clark and GWU. I wasn't offered money at either, although I'm still hoping L&C comes through with something on that front.
I'd like to focus on environmental law, but am a bit freaked that after a year or two, I'll change my mind, discover another area, etc etc. GW at least has a broad curriculum and national appeal.
GW is a lot more expensive, even without a scholarship. I also did my undergrad at GW--I had some problems with the undergrad institution and am not sure if I should let that reflect upon the law school. I certainly wouldn't mind a change of scenerey...Last thing is I guess I prefer the atmosphere of L&C (ie less competitive, etc)...
At this point I'm inclined towards L&C. Is that crazy with the difference in rankings? Thoughts? Please?
