I'm a second applicant for law schools in the States. International student, applied with 167 last year but wanted to boost my score. Unfortunately with work distracting my energies I scored even lower (162) and lost my morale.

Applied this year and got almost identical offers as last year:
Minnesota full scholarship - COA 22555/yr
Emory 114k scholarship - COA 42000/yr
GW 105k scholarship - COA 55755/yr
Fordham 75k - COA 66386/yr
I emailed Fordham to raise my scholarship but was refused unfortunately. From employment prospect it seems the chance to get a big law job out of Fordham is higher. But the price of Fordham and NYC is daunting (I will probably apply for the grad housing at Fordham, $9,000 per semester). According to the forum GW placements are largely constitutes of IP kids which I am not. I applied to UMN in case my parents wouldn't support me to study abroad. I would love to live in Atlanta and look for a job there, but it seems Emory's OCI firms don't take a lot of Emory students.
It is an important decision to make and I have been talking with both Emory and Fordham grads, both of them land big law jobs but they admit it's very hard and I have to be the 10%. Do you think going to Fordham worth the price of spending 66386/yr? Or is it viable to go to Emory and land a big law job in Atlanta? Since I'm an international student I couldn't take the federal loan and I have to borrow money from my parents who are reluctant to pay for a large price for their middle age daughter (25 years old) pursing an unnecessary law degree.
Would like to hear from you guys! Thanks in advance.
