villanova v. Seton Hall Forum

[cconcklin1]

I have gotten relatively the same amount of money from both schools and am having trouble deciding between the two.

Which school would put me in a better position for post grad?

[Lawlskool]

Depends on where you'd be seeking employment.

[Villanova3]

Isn't Nova tossing out 2.0 stips on scholarships? If the stips are different, just take the lower one.

As a Nova 1L, I can tell you, you can negotiate them down to a 2.0 GPA stip if you try.

[romothesavior]

How much will they cost? Where are you from?

[Linsanity]

Philly area has better job opportunities than NYC metro area where you would need to practice. I'd go Nova.

This doesn't mean they will cost the same. Villanova's tuition is $37,780 and I believe for Seton Hall the number is $46,000. So you are saving $24,000 (+interest if you take loans) in three years by going to Villanova. Also I'm fairly sure the stipulation on Villanova is 2.0, and Seton Hall is probably top 50% unless I'm mistaken. So my answer would be Villanova.

This is a joke right?

No. Philly has more job ops than NYC

[cconcklin1]

I am from New Hampshire, went to school in Boston, and have been working/living in Boston for the past year. I don't have a preference geographically really which makes deciding even harder.

I got my stip taken off of the scholarship at Seton Hall and Vill gave me a 2.0 stip.

[Linsanity]

If you can't manage a 2.0 you don't bolong in law school

This is just false. I would agree though that 'nova may feed better into philly than sh into nyc, but to claim that Philly has more opportunities in a blanket sense than nyc is ridiculous.

LOL.

At SHU you're fighting with both Rutgers schools, Columbia, nyu, Cardozo, Fordham, Brooklyn, and the list goes on. Nova will give you a better opportunity in my opinion.

Maybe. But that's not what you said.

[20130312]

Yes.

No.

You keep assuming that SHU's primary market is NYC. It primarily feeds NJ, not NYC.

Also, see this:

Did you apply to schools in Boston?

[Jah'rakal]

[rad lulz]

How much will they cost?

Yea... I'm a 1L at Nova, and no one ... not one person ... got below a 2.0 first semester.

The answer is going to be newt's moon colony if he attends either one of these schools.
