UC Davis vs. Boston College

Post by operationyuck » Tue Feb 19, 2019 7:18 pm

Hello all,

Which school do you think is a better choice--UC Davis or Boston College?
Haven't received any info about financial aid from either of these schools yet, but I'm a Californian looking to practice in CA in the long run. Is BC's reputation/ranking so much better than Davis' that it's worth attending regardless?

Would appreciate any wisdom, advice, feedback, etc!

No; in fact I'd advise against Boston College if you want to practice in California. Whether UCD is a good idea depends on your goals and how financial aid shakes out.

If you want to practice in California, go to a school in California. This holds true unless you're talking about a top ten school, but even still. Davis is great if you want to work in the Sacramento/San Francisco market. Won't have much pull in southern California.
