Hey guys,

I need your advice very much;)

My field of specialization is dispute resolution and I was admitted to Michigan, Northwestern, Berkeley (both tracks). Cornell and Pepperdine (the only one, which gave me a scholarship up to date).

I want to pass the bar exam and pursue my training in DR.

Which one to choose?

Michigan is a fantastic academic environment, but you're in the middle of nowhere and it's gonna be cold, very cold, until the end of April. Same goes for Cornell. Northwestern is great for corporate law (besides, I'm biased since I'm an alumnus). Berkeley has many pros and very few cons. Pepperdine comes into the picture only because of the scholarship. What you can/should do is to inform all the above-mentioned schools that Pepperdine awarded you a scholarship (mentioning amount in $), and asking them if they are willing to match those conditions
