Fordham ($) or Seton Hall ($$$)? Forum

[toots]

Hi all, I'm trying to decide between Seton Hall with a full-ride or Fordham with a half-ride ($25/year). I still have to negotiate, but I'm wondering which will set me up better for a job in NYC. I'm not sure exactly what type of law I want to go into, I have interests in both public interest and corporate, so I want something that leaves me with flexibility when I graduate. I'm waitlisted at Columbia and still waiting to hear from NYU. But of these two options, which do you think will give me a better setup upon graduation? Is Fordham's better ranking/location worth the additional cost? Thanks!

I'm inclined to say Fordham because Seaton Hall's employment score and not being in NYC.

What are your stats? URM?

With that GPA, I would retake the LSAT. But definitely wait on NYC and Columbia if you can. Maybe send a continued letter of interest to Columbia. Worst case, Fordham.

Ok thanks, idk why, but I took it twice and couldn't quite get to my preptest scores.
