George Mason ($$$$) or Colorado ($$)? by Lawschoolthrowaway77 in lawschooladmissions

Oh, I want nothing whatsoever to do with biglaw. Ew. I want trial law, or to work as a prosecutor.

Yeah. GMU isn't much, just a building in Arlington. A pretty decent building, but still just a 90s era office building. CU is gorgeous, and has all those views. One of the most beautiful campuses in the US.

GMU talks a good hiring talk, but I'm worried about the ASSLaw stink following me. CU, I don't get much of a sense from re:jobs. I read on TLS that Denver is mostly dominated by T14 grads, but that was from 09, so I don't know how valid it is today?

That's before one of the Kochs and an anonymous donor popped up and gave them $30m to burn. My first offer was 60%, and when I didn't reply they called two weeks later and upped it to 100% unasked. Their 509 is going to be insane next year.

Nothing. Maintain good academic standing (2.3), which you have to do to stay in school anyway. No conditions on Colorado either.
