-The schools you are considering
-The total Cost of Attendance (COA) of each. COA = cost of tuition + fees + books + cost of living (COL) + accumulated interest - scholarships. Here is a helpful calculator.
-How you will be financing your COA, i.e. loans, family, or savings
-Where you are from and where you want to work, and other places where you have significant ties (if any)
-Your general career goals
-Your LSAT/GPA numbers
-How many times you have taken the LSAT
For all the publicity you give AU, the school should pay you to go there.treenapolits wrote:Searching for public interest law, ideally in DC. Money is not any consideration.

This is absurd. Either you work for American or you're just extremely bad at using reason to make decisions.treenapolits wrote:I actually know a scholar who got into CUNY as well as American, and regrets not having gone to American. I'll have to ask her why.
This. Also why is money not an object? Are you gloriously wealthy?nickb285 wrote:untar614 wrote:retake til u can get into a T14, or at least GW I guess.
CUNY would be a good bet for regional PI work -- better than your alternatives.treenapolits wrote:According to page 26. of this website, http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/cypress ... ex.php#/36
the University of Denver places the most lawyers into public interest positions. WorldTraveler, you're right about CUNY - places significantly higher than American or Northeastern.

Unless you'd like to figure out the statistical likelihood of placing into public interest in any given school, comparatively and relative to overall employment rates, right now all we have is the current numbers. Anyone know of a preferred public interest law school ranking or article? (or perhaps another website?)
Yet another incentive for OP to study + retake the LSATboblawlob wrote:treenapolits wrote:According to page 26. of this website, http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/cypress ... ex.php#/36
