Then save your money.
- Furman or Richmond or for that matter Frostburg State or Radford aren’t going to make a difference for law school - yes, even top - but a top LSAT score (and GPA) will be needed. And you’ll need money to pay for law school - and $160K sounds like almost 2 of the three years paid for!!
Consultants come in all flavors and will happen from both but less likely the McKinesey/BCGs/Bains of the world - and it depends what type of person they’re looking for. I’d give Richmond a slight edge here - but more likely due to the b school than poli sci or econ.
I put both career outcomes below although you can ask the schools for more detailed info.
But these two - I suppose because US News says Richmond is ranked higher, you can quibble on that - but if’s better, it’s like a 93 in the class instead of a 92, etc.
Save the loot!!
I won’t say Greenville is better - that’s personal preference - both are neat cities but Richmond (or Furman) are not in the city.
Good luck.
