UConn $$ vs. Buffalo $

I was just accepted to UConn last week. But I have a $5k scholly from Buffalo.

As someone who lives and wants to practice in NYC (I have no illusions of Big Law)--what would be the better choice?

Is paying $81K of tuition at UConn (1st year at $41K, 2nd and 3rd at in-state 20K) worth it over roughly $35K at Buffalo?

-------------

UPDATE: I was just made an Ellsworth Scholar at UConn which reduces my 1st year out-of-state tuition to 20K (effectively making me in-state). So now we're talking about 60K of tuition at UConn vs. 35K at Buffalo.

I'm leaning towards UConn now, but will be attending both schools' ASDs next month.

Uconn didn't even make it into the tournament this year, go to the other place

That's a really tough decision, actually, b/c of the debt difference. I LOVE UConn, so I'd probably choose that school, but if you want NY in general it may be a wash, I don't know.
