Cornell ($$) v. NYU

[ridecoaster216]

Cornell COA = $101,857 (With scholarship)
NYU COA = $193,515

My family will be helping a little but I will also have to take out loans.

I am from the NY/NJ area, I want to work in NYC and live in NYC. I would like to eventually go into entertainment/sports law.

if you know for sure you want to reside in nyc then I think most people would advise cornell for the $$ here.

nyu will probably give you a better edge for sports/entertainment law but that's a relative niche and i don't know if it's worth 90k extra in debt for a marginally increased chance

Cornell. If you had some sort of goal that NYU was definitely going to be better at helping you achieve (high-level PI, etc.), maybe it'd be worth the extra money. But even then, probably not.
