American v. GW v. Mason

Post by sssmith » Mon Jul 17, 2017 1:00 pm

I am struggling to decide whether I should transfer and where I should transfer to. I finished 1L at American with a 3.48 (top 33%) and have been accepted to GW and Mason as a transfer. I pay 20k a year at American, GW would cost 56k a year, and Mason would be completely free. The goal is a firm job. I could be wrong, but I feel like Mason is almost a step down from AU, despite the ratings, if I am looking to go into private sector. Where should I go?? Any advice would be much appreciated!!

American makes you pay back your scholarship right?

No, that's only with certain types of scholarships. I would not need to pay mine back.

Which scholarships do they make you pay back if you transfer?
