What is the cost of attendance for each?
Fordham seems like the logical choice of the three.

The price tag for each is probably way too steep for a school with only a 1/3ish shot at biglaw.

if youre big law or bust you just need to go to school with the highest biglaw odds. i think its foolish (and usually not well researched) to be biglaw or bust, so not necessarily what id do. but no way in hell you should go to fordham as biglaw or bust.

I recently graduated from BU. Don't go to BU for big law if you're not cool with staying in Boston. We may place a few people into NYC but generally you'll need to be top 1/3rd to get big law and probably on the higher end of that to get big law outside of Boston. If I were you, I'd probably go to Fordham.

If your only ambition is biglaw, then retake and reapply for better options. Fordham gives you the best chance at NYC biglaw out of these three, but it's not a good enough chance to justify spending that much money.
