I could use some prayers as I struggle with making a decision about where to finish up my schooling and probably ultimately start looking for a job. I received an email today that I got accepted to a Loyola law school as a transfer student. I am currently attending Texas A&M school of law. The catch is I have to make a decision by August 8.
Here are the pros that I have come up with for moving:
1) the drive to school if I moved would only be 30 minutes vs 2 hours.
2) I would be living with my fiancé, instead of in another state.
3) I really like the saltwater fishing.
4) My fiancee's family practices law in the New Orleans area (possible connections)
A few pros for staying:
1) I have made some good connections here and currently have a job in the legal field that I could keep throughout my law school career.
2) I have gotten to know my professors very well.
3) I think that Texas would ultimately offer the better job market after graduation.
4) I have a law review write on invitation with A&M, and will not get that opportunity with Loyola.
That is just what I have come up with so far. Just received the acceptance email a few hours ago and have been discussing things with family. What are your thoughts?
