Villanova (Full/Grant) vs. Wake Forest (27.5/year)

Post by nillumin » Sat May 14, 2011 2:49 pm

I am from philadelphia and pretty much decided on Villanova when I got 35k/year (3.15 stipulation) with the 1-time grant of 10,000...but I'm still having a hesitation regarding Wake Forest at 27.5/year (top 2/3 stipulation).

I feel like Villanova makes the most sense clearly, I just find something enticing about going to school down South. I'm not 100% sure if I'd love it there after 3 years, but I do like Charlotte a lot and think I'd like to work there someday. I also like Philly and have been here my whole life thus far...and feel like I am beginning to tire of the NE.

I'm probably going to Villanova (90-95% sure), but any input would be appreciated.

What is a 3.15 from Nova? Depending on the curve, that could be either above or below median.

I think it's around the 50% mark.

Law school grading curves are a bitch. Find out which school gives you the lower GPA requirement for keeping the scholly, and go there.
