Yale [$70k] vs UVA Jefferson Scholarship [full ride]

Is Virginia your in-state school? How easy or difficult would it be to transfer from Yale if finances changed or it wasn’t a good fit? UVA without Jefferson is still impressive.

These stats listed probably don’t show the whole picture. I’m betting the overall law/grad school admit rates for UVA Jefferson is better than UVA only. Or at least better to top tier law/grad schools.

Winners of tip-top scholarships are treated differently. The schools have a vested interest in seeing their award winners succeed. Try to research Jefferson scholars specifically for career success.

Again playing with stats. Maybe Yale law does enroll more HYPS undergrads. However, unless you know how many HYPS grads applied vs the field, it’s hard to tell if there’s an advantage or no advantage at all.

Congratulations. Two great choices. Good luck.
