Cardozo vs. GULC

Nearly full ride at Cardozo vs. sticker at GULC (this factor won't rock the boat); top of class; Law Review; highly selective clinic; strong prof connections; and anecdotal interest in working in DC vs. strong interest in working in NY.
Please make this decision for me, TLS.

Stay. Try to get Cardozo to bump you up to a full ride by leveraging your GULC acceptance. You have no real reason to transfer.

#1 should have a reliable shot at HYS, even.

Stay if G, flip coin if CLS/NYU, go if HYS comes knocking.

Cardozo's highest rank is "top 10%," so no telling whether I'm #1. Sorry for the confusion.
I'm waiting on several other schools.

Told my parents this about an hour ago. I'd leave for CLS, flip coin if NYU, run to HYS.

biglaw and clerkships. tbh (and for the purposes of fully responding to your question), i'm highly confident in my biglaw chances (no matter which school) for various reasons that i won't discuss.

If this is the case, then stay. No reason to incur more debt.

100% Columbia or NYU .... 80% GULC (if you can participate in OCI + Need-Based Aid) ... 100% HYS (obv) .... 0% Bieber
You should only choose Cardozo > GULC if both 1.) you cannot participate in OCI and 2.) you do not receive need-based aid ... if you qualify for either 1, or 2, but not both, then iDK

0% Bieber? What's wrong with people these days?

Transferring is just a means to secure a job. If you're confident you can do it at dozo, save your money.
