Fine. Fine. Unwad your panties.

So WF places a touch better than I thought in the most recent year (admittedly half-assed research). I still said it was a good school and acknowledged that my data was old. Thanks (sincerely) for sharing the new stuff. Good god.

CU will make for good job prospects. WF will make for good job prospects. OP: Pick based on where you want to live. You've got good options in good locations. That is all.

(Except: My point, however, remains. There are fewer in-state law schools (i.e., grads) for CU grads to compete with. Yes, the non-UNC/WF grads in NC aren't from good schools. But they are there, unlike in Colorado. And, as swheat mentioned, Denver probably pulls more T14ers than NC. Fine.)

I picked Wake because it has the lowest cost of living of the schools you listed.

i realize the COL in W-S is cheaper, but I think CU would still be cheaper in the long run because I would be able to establish in-state residency for 2L and 3L and thus qualify for in-state tuition. So money-wise, CU is my best bet.

I've read a number of things on here about the gross oversaturation of lawyers in Colorado on here due to everyone wanting to live there. WFU on the other hand is a bit underrated and places pretty well throughout its region, I'd pick there by a decent margin. But honestly in the end its about where you want to live since they're so far apart.
