Any advice, I have only visited W&L so if anyone has anything they found particularly interesting after visiting BC, SMU, or UGA it would be more than welcome! Thanks.

Which would *I* choose? BC, easily. I don't see how that helps *you* at all, though.

This may not help you much but I'll say it anyways.

I visited Boston, Lexington, and I am a native Texan and have been to Dallas many times. That said, preference for living would be Boston>Dallas>Lexington. You need to go visit Lexington if you are thinking at all about W&L, it's tiny and is only for certain people, fwiw I didn't like it at all.

Where are you from and where do you want to end up?

If these numbers are per year, then great. If not, I wouldn't go to any of them (unless you're instate at UGA).

Profile shows Illinois resident with a 166/3.2.

Did Georgia offer tuition equivalency ? If so, then it should be much lower cost than the rest.

Do you prefer to live & work ib Boston, Dallas or Atlanta/Georgia after law school ? The answer should determine which law school is best for you.

P.S. It's better to calculate & post total COA than simply noting scholarship amounts since it paints a clearer picture.

Scholly amounts are per year, I have visited W&L and didnt mind it. As far as where Id rather end up...All I know for a fact is I dont want to end up back in Chicago so whether its Dallas, Boston, or even Lex I really dont mind. I have been to western Mass and other parts of New England and like them a lot, could easily see myself living there. I've also been to many parts of TX but never to Dallas so any type of anecdotal information would be great both about the schools and the areas. I am leaning towards BC,SMU, or UGA. I did get tuition equivalency at UGA and the cost of living is much cheaper...as fas as working in ATL is concerned tho I am still a little iffy...Thanks guys for the input. Does anyone have any stories from visits to UGA SMU or BC?

I would go to BC. But I also wouldn't rely on TLS to tell me where to live.

If you're okay with living in Boston/NY post-graduation, go to BC.

If you really don't care, BC seems to be the best bet.
