Total cost of attendance for each?

You really should give more information about yourself, but just look at these employment statistics. You'd have to be guaranteed a job now before you could even think about setting foot at Oregon. Honestly, South Carolina's numbers aren't bad.

Which of those states are you from

[ph14]

Go to whichever school is closer to where you want to practice. It doesn't make any sense to go to South Carolina to practice on the west coast and it doesn't make any sense to go to Oregon to practice on the east coast.

Do this if you want advice. It's impossible to give good advice without more information.

Also, did you draw these schools out of a hat?

I am seriously considering South Carolina as well with, what seems like, a similar scholarship offer. I'm curious to see what others have to say

Neither because you don't understand how legal hiring works if you think you can get a job anywhere but in South Carolina or Oregon from these two schools

[deadpanic]

One, SC's economy is in the dump (yes, everywhere sucks right now, but the carolinas have been especially hit hard). Second, you're from the west coast...going to south carolina in their extremely parochial environment is going to be a really difficult task.

not really advocating oregon either without more details, but it seems to make more sense than SC.

[sinfiery]

If you want to work in Oregon, pick Oregon.
If you want to work in South Carolina, pick South Carolina.

If you want to work somewhere else, retake and reapply to a school in that region.

[gaud]

It's going to be very hard to get a job in SC w/o ties. +1 to what deadpanic said. That place is crazy.

I don't know anything about Oregon.

[justonemoregame]

Neither - apply for jobs. Get a three year head start on some shitty career without 60K debt because that's better than 60K debt plus shitty career.

[hephaestus]

OP, we still need more data from you.

[NinerFan]

SC is way insular. I don't think you should go there.

[gaud]

You should retake bro

More info. I am currently living in Utah. I don't mind working a couple years in a different state. I was hoping that getting a job and then trying to go back to a state wouldn't be as difficult as going to law school and straight back. I am waitlisted at University of Arizona and have yet to hear back from UNLV. If I get into either of these I will go there because these are places I would like to live. I noticed SC has pretty good employment statistics and Oregon's is basically horrible. I wouldn't mind working in the state I go to law school in for a couple years. Hopefully I will get into UNLV because that is my first choice. Numbers are borderline with 156/3.5

Retake and go to a school in Utah for freesies or a T14. Or get a job in the place you want to end up, work for a couple years to establish ties and then go to the best regional school in that region. Again, for freesies.

[iShotFirst]

Good luck getting a job in South Carolina with no ties.

[patrickd139]

Good luck getting a job in South Carolina or Oregon with no ties. Good luck getting a legal job in Utah with a law degree from South Carolina or Oregon.

Retake and go to the U with $$$.

If you go to U of O and aren't from Oregon, you are not going to get a job in Oregon. As far as I can tell, getting a decent attorney job in Oregon without ties requires you coming from T14/killing it at L&C.
