Georgetown Law vs. GW Law

I was admitted to both GW Law and Georgetown Law recently, and I’m trying to decide between the two of them. I don’t know what financial aid I will be receiving from GT yet, but GW offered me $135,000 for all three years ($45,000 per year, renewable based on grades each year). I am attracted to the prestige and rigor of GT but the idea of graduating with significantly less debt from GW is also really attractive too. Which law school should I go with? What would be the minimum scholarship amount from GT that would make the increased cost worth going there? Is it looked down upon to tell GT that I received this scholarship from GW to see if they would match it?

I’m the first in my family to go to law school so I really appreciate any advice you can give! Thank you!
