I am in at Seattle U right now, and I have decided to get everything ready for moving to Seattle from CA. However, I am wait listed at USD right now. If I do get into USD at sticker, would you guys pick USD or Seattle U? I will be getting 8k per from SU with top 50% stip. I originally wanted to practice in CA, but I do not have a preference right now. Hoping to work in IP, patent law or corporate law. Only have a biochem BS degree though, but if I work in patent, I would want to do patent litigation. Thanks in advance.

Voted for San Diego because it is where you want to work and in my mind, the money you are getting from Seattle is not enough to outweigh the advantage that you will get from going to school in your desired market.

I voted for Seattle University because it is your only option if you want to attend law school this fall.

haha. I want you to assume that I get into USD for the sake of argument. I want to know what to do if I get into USD right before law school starts in August.

Wait until they make you an offer that you can't refuse.
