BC vs Fordham, or lower level school with more $$$
Posted: Wed Mar 02, 2016 6:33 pm
UGPA 3.62
LSAT 163
Undergrad at UConn, from the Northeast.
Both Fordham and Boston College have offered 20k per year. Fordham has a higher cost of attendance (roughly $80,000 vs 68,000).
I also expect to get some need based aid, though not much.
I was also offered a full tuition scholarship at American. I have family that works in DC and know the area somewhat and would not mind being there.
I have been leaning towards following a career in big law and BC and Fordham seem to be my best bet, however, American's international law success is interesting to me.
I will be paying for most of law school with loans and a little bit of help from family. I also haven't attempted to negotiate scholarships yet with any schools, I am unsure whether or not playing BC or Fordham against each other is possible as they gave me the same $$. I was also given a full ride at Northeastern although I'm unsure if letting BC know about this will have any impact on my scholarship money.
Which school should I attend?
and any advice on negotiating scholarships?
