Columbia. If you want to practice in NY you're much better off there or NYU.

Your only current options are between staying at UCLA with law review & scholarship money or attending UC-Berkeley with scholarship money & a chance at making law review. Both are great options if you intend to stay on the west coast. To cure your desire for NYC, I suggest taking a quick trip there while wearing Boston Red Sox athletic gear.

If you really want to keep the NYC option open, go to Columbia.

BUT....unless you really want that option....I think you're fine where you are, or Berkeley.

when you get in to Boalt- you Boalt straight there. ESPECIALLY when they are offering you money. I don't know how you pulled that off, but congrats. Berkeley for the win.

Have a cameraperson follow you around and then post the video on Youtube. Provide links on TLS. I would derive a great deal of merriment from this.

I would stay on the west coast just for the weather. Berkeley is sweet.

Did Berkeley specifically tell you that 20k is per year, or is it just your financial aid for this year? A lot of grants aren't renewed, so unless you have it guaranteed I wouldn't count on it as being 20k per year.
