-The schools you are considering
-The total Cost of Attendance (COA) of each. COA = cost of tuition + fees + books + cost of living (COL) + accumulated interest - scholarships. Here is a helpful calculator.
-How you will be financing your COA, i.e. loans, family, or savings

In case it isn't clear yet, this question is impossible to answer without knowing where you want to work and what you want to do (and all the other information would be helpful too).

Idk, if the choices are Nebraska and South Carolina the answer is probably "you did this wrong, retake and reapply next year."

A quick review of OP's profile shows s/he has applied to UCONN, Miami and Cinci as well. Sounds like the old, patented shotgun approach to law school admissions, and I foresee OP giving a heartfelt interview to the NY Times in four years about how his/her JD from Southwest Kakalacky St Technical College at sticker didn't place them in a market-paying job in NYC where they could comfortably service 200K in debt. It's the end of legal hiring as we know it, folks.

Grew up in SC. Great state as long as you stay away from Columbia, which is regrettably where USC is.

If you like massive amounts homeless people, astonishingly low IQs and crippling depression from lack of trees/grass/nature

A lack of trees/grass/nature? How many cities have you lived in?

My dad went to South Carolina Law. I've never been to Columbia, and he's never been back since he graduated (which may or may not tell you something), but "lack of trees/grass/nature" seems like a weird criticism.

That would be the problem. Homeless people and a lack of trees/grass/nature are present in most cities. Based on my experience, Columbia is better than average in terms of grass/trees/nature because of USC.

Yeah, I'm not advocating for (or against) the city overall but Columbia is pretty green. Did a lovely kayaking session there. It's hardly a concrete jungle.
