curious wording "to move back to NY eventually"

does this mean you don't plan to be in NY for law school? or maybe you're not in NY now?

additionally, after visiting, i prefer the w&l campus to the cardozo building.

Cardozo gives you your best shot at a job in NYC for the lowest debt, so that's my vote. But only if you're willing to drop out if you lose the scholly. No way should you pay sticker for 2L and 3L.
