Stats?

Sounds like CUNY is your best option, see if you can get any $$

can you go there PT and continue working at the DA's office?
Or have you been able to make sure you can intern at the DA's office during the summer going into 2L?

Sounds like CUNY is a good choice for you. just make sure you have soemthing lined up for over the summer

In this limited case (assuming you want to work for the DA for life or move into criminal defense later on down the line), it sounds like CUNY is a good option for you. I also hear they are moving/have moved to a nice new building in LIC? Unless BLS or Carschmozo offers you substantial money (again assuming my above stated assumptions are true), neither BLS or Carschmozo is worth the debt in your case.

Bust your as your first year and make sure you line up an internship at the DA's office where you presently work... Make friends with the people that handle hiring...
