Not that it matters at this point, but I think UF would probably be a better choice if your son did not have scholarship money. I went to UM and turned down UF twice (undergrad + graduate school) but it was only because of the scholarship. I’m sure you can have a good experience at either, though I preferred a smaller school.

One thing I would like to say is that your son should think very carefully about law school before deciding on that path. It’s not the financially secure choice that parents often think it is, and most lawyers end up buried in debt, making far less money than they thought they would, and working long hours (if they’re lucky enough to have a job!). Even worse, the law degree is worthless if your son decides to change his career path.
