What are your career goals? If just Biglaw, then NU with no debt is the smarter move. Stanford is more reasonable if you're going for the unicorn things though.

It really isn't. T13 at full-tuition is better than Stanford in every conceivable scenario. There are plenty of T13 alum with the same "unicorn" jobs as HYS people. Don't mortgage your future for a 2% greater long-term chance at getting a unicorn job. Moving from a 1% to a 3% probability isn't worth $200k+.

I'd have a NICE long talk with Stanford and see what they'd be willing to do in the face of a full ride from another t10.

Accepting the money at northwestern and enrolling renders it incumbent upon you to withdraw your acceptances ONLY.
As in, we can stay on waitlists, right?

It's tough, but I'd probably choose Chicago.

I want biglaw and NU places extremely well. I'm not certain that 6 spots in the rankings are worth debt financing an additional 75K... On the other hand, its U of Chicago... Oh well, life wouldn't be as fun if we didn't have these decisions to second guess for the rest of our lives

Chicago probably isn't worth the difference. I would probably still be tempted to choose it! no help

Did you get nothing or just not a lot? Retake rarely a bad idea! Good luck
