If your career goals are biglaw then NYU is clearly TCR.
Do you have any options w/ $ from the lower T14? While NYU gives you a great shot at big law position, 250k debt is a lot to swallow.

I'd say NYU here. While the debt is a burden, putting what you have plus SA money towards and sticking with biglaw can cut down this debt while making a decent living. Also the job prospects will be much better.

Yeah, sticker is tough to swallow, but it sounds like you need to just bite the bullet and pay up. NYU is def worth the extra $125k or so.hibiki wrote:I don't have any other T14 options.

I also have a WL I'm riding out (and I'm held at Columbia) but I think my ultimate decision will be between UMN and NYU at the costs listed.
