BU 10k/ yr v W & M 10k/yr

Post by Rdubs » Tue May 22, 2012 12:32 am

Just got in off the waitlist at BU. Decisions decisions... No ties to either location, no specific preference in what / where I practice. Debt minimization would be nice, but it is not absolutely necessary. Thoughts?

Ask both law schools for more money.

At those prices, neither, since I'm assuming you're not in-state at W&M. Too expensive for the job prospects you get.

To those who voted, anyone have reasons for your choices? I'm going to visit BU this weekend, and I visited W & M and loved it.

I might be biased considering I picked W&M but I loved the school when I visited.
Either way make the choice depending on your preferences, no one else can make this decision for you. After you visit BU, hopefully you'll know.

My thoughts are unless someone else is paying or you've got a 6 figure job lined up, debt minimization is absolutely necessary, not just "nice".
