I got off the waitlist at my top choice, a T120 state school and was offered an over 50% scholarship, and would owe $21k per year in tuition as an out of state resident. Haven’t researched yet if I would qualify for in state tuition after 1L. I have an offer from another school, a T130 that I was planning on attending for $14k per year, my top school declined to match it. However, my top school is in a very low COL city, I would pay $800-900 in rent, at my second choice it would be around $1200. I would also be close enough to my hometown at my top choice that I could pick up bartending shifts every once in a while at my current summer job, and could potentially pay rent with two shifts a month, and I will have help from family for groceries and other random expenses. Would it be dumb to pass up my top choice just because of tuition being higher? Salary/bar passage/employment outcomes are about the same but I would likely be able to find a job in my hometown easier with my top choice. I have zero debt from undergrad so taking on at least $65k is very daunting.

Hi, I was recently accepted to WVU Law, so I am scrambling to find an apartment last minute. Everywhere I look is fully leased or far from campus. I’d like to stay under $1k and need somewhere that allows a cat. Just looking for a safe, clean place, but in unit laundry would be great too. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

I was offered a waitlist interview at my absolute top choice, and while I am of course very excited I am also extremely nervous. Is there anything I should do to prepare?

Hi all, need some advice. I am on waitlists for two of my top choices. I would attend either of these schools if admitted with enough aid and would submit my deposit and withdraw other apps as soon as I got the offer. Key words here are WITH ENOUGH AID lol, I have an affordable plan B and am not going into crazy debt for my top choices. I know being admitted of WL is unlikely and being offered a lot of aid is even more unlikely. My question here is if it is allowed/acceptable to tell both schools in a LOCI that I will absolutely attend given suitable aid. They are in different regions of the country and different tiers. Thanks for any input!!
