Hi Everyone,

Female Puerto Rican here. Wanted to see how everyone is doing? I've been accepted to Cardozo with a very generous scholarship for being the first in my family to attend college and apply to law school. Waitlisted at columbia, and still waiting on a few others.

I'm part Portugese, but people often think that's a fancy way of saying I'm from Puerto Rico. Does that count?

I am from Staten Island, but live in DC/VA/MD area now. I will most likely be moving back this fall though. I am debating between Columbia and NYU now. Which is a fortunate debate to have, I realize. Good luck with the rest of your cycle!

These are some great choices!!! What type of law are you looking to practice? This will greatly influence your decision. Also are the aid packages similar?

As of now it's NYU, though I'm still holding out hope that I may get pulled off the Harvard or Columbia waitlists :)
