Should I transfer to Tulane?

Post by Anonymous User » Sat Jun 22, 2013 11:09 am

First and foremost, all I care about is getting a job. I absolutely plan to stay and start a career in New Orleans, preferably at one of the "larger" downtown firms.

I am at the other law school in New Orleans, having placed between Top 11-20%. I am doing the Law Review write-on competition and have a sizable scholarship offer to stay. I have also been invited to journals. The increase in tuition if I transfer will be $55-60,000 over two years.

Is it worth it to transfer up given the cost considerations and the fact that I'm already in my target market? Will the firms give me more consideration by being at Tulane rather than TTT with Law Review?
