UC-Irvine (Full Scholly) vs. BC (Half Scholly)

Got a full scholarship to UC-Irvine and 50% scholarship to B.C. I'd consider myself generally risk-averse, and BC's strong alumni network, established reputation, and employment statistics sway me towards B.C. (especially given the fact that UCI is totally unproven in those areas). However, getting a free education, UCI's extremely fast rise up the rankings, and their dedication to helping students land the best jobs to improve their reputation are factors one can't ignore. It's worth mentioning that I'm interested in working in the private sector. What do you guys think?

Similar rank, Irvine is a better choice unless you want to practice in the East Coast.

Irvine if you want California practice. Otherwise, law school might not be a good idea...BC at a half scholarship is just way too expensive.
