I want to work in DC. Im an undergrad there now with some connections, although not the kind thats a guaranteed job.

Wake- scholarship for $15,000
Maryland- Sticker
George Mason- Sticker
Villanova- $20,000
Seton Hall- $35,000
Hofstra- Full Ride
Catholic- $14,500, but Im interviewing next month to increase my amount.

Go to Mason. It's prob the cheaper option when compared to Maryland and it's higher on the pecking order. Catholic is a bad idea b/c it costs so much and is really low on the totem pole. Wake has some DC reach but Wake tends to focus placing in NC and bordering states. Hofstra isn't going to get you anywhere close to DC. Nova has slight reach and idk about Seton Hall.

Yes, considering your other options and your desire to practice in DC. Also, you can try to obtain VA residency after your first year.

If your goal is DC or bust, I'd go with George Mason. But everything being equal, I think Wake would be your best choice.
