Cardozo to GULC?

I have a $45k per year scholly to Cardozo and got accepted to GULC at sticker. I am hoping for a federal clerkship (open to anywhere geographically for clerkship) after school, then into either Biglaw or DOJ. I have applications in at NYU/CLS, but wont hear back from them in a while. Need to decide on GULC by tomorrow.

Stats: 3.66 (top 10%), graded onto law review.

Is it worth the move to go to GULC?

If this were an pre-law application, I'd say GULC, but now that you have top 10% grades, it might be worth staying at Cardozo. Transfers at GULC have a tough time standing out at OCI and aren't likely to get as much assistance come clerkship app time. As one of the top students at Cardozo, I think you are likely to get a reasonable amount of time and attention, and have a pretty decent shot at biglaw.

CLS would be a different calculation, as the median CLS student places much better.

Can I ask did you pay the deposit and plan to participate the OCI at Georgetown?
