hi guys, I'm a recent law graduate from Nigeria (male), I recently applied to both Vanderbilt and Emory university to pursue an LLM degree in corporate/transactional law. I got admitted to both schools with Emory offering a $15,000 scholarship and Vanderbilt is yet to make a decision. I'm stuck between both schools now, I really hope to finish and probably get a good job when I'm done so I'm looking for a school with a good name and ranking that attracts good employers. I know Atlanta is a thriving metropolitan city with a lot of Jobs and a large African-American crowd (with a lot of Nigerians also) but will Emory really boost my CV and attract good jobs? or should I just go with Vanderbilt scholarship or no? please I need good advice on this with pros and cons. Thank you.
decision between Vanderbilt LLM and Emory LLM

Unless Vanderbilt offers you the same scholarship, I'd pick Emory
