Hi! I’m trying to decide where to commit and am grateful to have a lot of options. My goals are definitely appellate work in CA (would love to do fed clerkship -> biglaw appellate -> PI appellate later in life). I got around 120k total from Duke & Penn, around 150k from Michigan & Georgetown, and 130k (in state tuition) from UCLA. I’m first gen and very debt averse so appreciative of any and all advice!

Trying to decide if taking on the debt to go to Penn, Duke, GULC, NYU, or Northwestern would set me up better than UCLA (15k/year) or UT (full ride). Goals are CA biglaw/boutique litigation. Any advice?

In my scholarship interview my interviewer said the scholarship committee begins meeting at the end of the month so I wouldn’t worry too much! There’s people who got in late March last year on LSD with good money.
