UCLA ($30,000) v. NYU (No scholarship)


Posted May 04, 2023 19:19

Help me decide!!
I got 2 admission letters. One from UCLA with a $30,000 scholarship and another letter from NYU without any scholarship. Which one would be a better choice?
Any suggestions would be welcome...

I think it might come down to the subjects offered/what you want to study and get out of the course generally, and your capacity to self fund.

I want to ultimately sit for the NY Bar exam and find jobs in NY.
My question is if I choose UCLA, how easy or tough it is to then study in CA and find jobs in NY?

Just my opinion, but unless it’s an LLM in tax, I wouldn’t pay 30k more for NYU. I’d probably take UCLA if I had to choose between these two.

If your goal is to find a job in NY, then study for the LSAT and apply for the JD (or try to transfer from LLM to JD). Finding a job with an LLM degree and no assistance from a prestigious firm back home is very difficult.
