How do I negotiate with GW, leveraging GULC offer?
Posted: Sun Feb 03, 2013 9:47 am
I know common TLS wisdom is that you can do this but how??
I wanted to argue that I have a better chance of getting a good job faster when coming out of GULC than GW. But then I checked the schools' profiles on TLS and they have virtually the same job placement rate and the same average starting salary in the private sector.
So how do I tell GW that GULC is much better and I would need more money to attend GW?? Referring to rankings seems stupid. IMO, GULC has a greater selection of classes, more clinics etc and is therefore the better school. But is this enough of a reason to use in scholarship negotiations??
Thanks for your help!
