Re: AU or GW
Almost the entire top half of the school transfers out, and around 15-20% of the 1L class transfers to GW at sticker price. Going to American would be a horrible choice.

Re: AU or GW
There is NEVER, and I mean NEVER, a justification for going to American. NEVER. NEVER. NEVER.
And if you attend GWU, you damn well better have a full tuition scholarship or almost a full ride.
Attending either of these schools at sticker cost of attendance will cost you over $200,000 plus interest in non-dischargeable debt for egregious employment prospects in a market that is much too saturated where even students who attend GTTTown can't find employment.
Retake for better options.
Also, "international law" in the context in which you're referring to it isn't a thing and choosing a school based on such a career preference would be almost as big of a mistake as attending American.

Re: AU or GW
International human rights lawyer coming out of American. That's the scam that AU sells to keep its dumpster fire alit.

Re: AU or GW
I would never go to AU.
GW with 60% scholarship is questionable.
GW with 75-100% scholarship is decent, I guess.
GULC with 50% scholarship is decent, I guess.

Re: AU or GW
Went to AU undergrad...DO NOT GO THERE!
GW is in a better location, better academics and connections. AU is pretty stingy with scholarship all around (law and undergrad) and its connections...well...leave a lot to be desired. They do have some great professors at the law school but if you really want you should just take a one off class there or something. DO NOT GO THERE FOR LAW SCHOOL.

Re: AU or GW
Neither if you're super committed to International Law/Human Rights stuff. You probably need to go to Yale.
GW if it's free or close to free.
AU never.
