Where Would You Go? Temple/Pitt/Richmond? Forum

[sarinarasauce]

I am trying to decide between Temple, Pitt, and Richmond - not taking cost into account, what would be my best option? I am a Temple undergrad and I would prefer to get out of the Philadelphia area, but I'm still considering Temple Law since it is one of my best (and cheapest) options. I am flexible about where I would like to eventually practice - my only concerns are going to a school with a) a good reputation, b) a great alumni network, and c) the best chances of employment after graduation. All comments are very much appreciated! Thanks guys.

If you absolutely can't retake then Temple.

If you really really hate Philly, then Pitt. If you can stand Philly, Temple.

Pitt has a great reputation in Pittsburgh and to a lesser extent, Western PA. I love it here and wouldn't want to go anywhere else.

Expect to have difficulty going back to Philadelphia from Pitt and to Pittsburgh from Temple.

Richmond is out, but Temple has a good reputation, alumni network and gives you good job opportunities in Philly and Pitt does the same in Pittsburgh. Its honestly just picking a city you want to live and work in and going to the school located there.
