GW vs W&M vs GMU

Post by casejams » Wed Feb 26, 2014 12:51 pm

Hello everyone, I'm a senior undergraduate student with the following options:

GW - sticker price
W&M - 15k a year in scholarship
GMU - 15k a year in scholarship

- I'll be taking out loans for all thee years, but there is a very high chance my parents can pay off some or all of my debt.
- I'm from the northeast originally, I'm finishing up UG in the DMV and I'd like to practice civil litigation in either DC, NOVA, or MoCo Maryland.
- 3.5/165
- Rejected from Georgetown.

What do the wise people of top-law schools forums think?

These are not very good options. Go to a lower ranked school than GW with a full scholarship. There is no reason to go to GW for sticker when a bunch of schools in the 30s will throw tons of money at you IMO. I personally would not choose any of those three options, and I want to work in D.C. too, but GW at sticker is insane. Everyone else on here is going to tell you to retake btw.

How many times did you sit for the LSAT ? If just once, then retake.

Also, what is the total COA for GMU & Wm.&Mary ? (Forget sticker at GW).
