UPenn Levy vs. NYU vs. Columbia

Post by bruwinning24 » Sun Mar 03, 2013 6:25 pm

Got full tuition for 3 years at Penn and still waiting on money offers from NYU and Columbia. How much would Columbia/NYU have to give me for them to be worth it? Furthermore, if I get into YHS, how much would they have to give me for them to be worth it?

I would only take Stanford and Yale over a full ride at Penn.

It must be terrible being in your position.

I would only take Stanford and Yale with a nice sized scholarship over a full ride at Penn.

Fixed.

Maybe Y at sticker, HS at 1/3 off, C at like 100K off, or CN at full ride.

What about Tulane?

You'll need a full ride from either for it to be worth giving up your Levy. The next best offer at CLS would be half-tuition, and CLS is definitely not worth that much more than Penn.

As for YHS, what are your career goals?

Are you suggesting Tulane over Penn full ride? You, sir, are mad (no whoosh needed).

I want to work in big law, probably commercial litigation.

Nothing short of a full-ride at NYU, or $120K+ at CLS would sway me from a full-ride at Penn. And that's really only if you have a great preference for NYC over Philly.

In terms of biglaw placement, all three of those schools are within spitting distance of each other. Until you get a full ride (or very close to a full ride) at Columbia or NYU, this is not a dilemma.
