More Money from Hopkins?

Here are the two things that have kept me so focused on trying to make Hopkins work some way: it seems like the environment is more conducive to outside-the-classroom learning experiences and the mobility of the degree (specifically the weight it could be given in law school admissions). I think that I could do very well academically at Pitt, but I don’t know if doing well at Pitt is the same as doing well at Hopkins and possibly having some meaningful research to add to my portfolio. I really liked the focus on research at Hopkins, and I know that having some research under my belt could be a great asset on law school applications. Is a degree from Hopkins worth me working every possible angle to try to make this work without accruing 100k+ in debt?
