Brandeis v. LSE (what would you do?

Transfer Students

<p>Hello Everyone,</p>

<p>I was just hoping I could get people's two cents regarding what I should do here. I studied abroad last year at the London School of Economics, and had a good time. I filled out an application to transfer, and met the requirements. So now I am left with a dilemma:</p>

<p>Should I transfer to LSE or stay at Brandeis? At LSE I would get a BSc in Government, at Brandeis a BA in Politics and Philosophy. LSE is a three yera program, Brandeis a four year program, but I am unsure if that is a factor. I am hoping to go to law school (in the US), and am considering which of these options would help me facilitate this. Further, I enjoyed LSE quite a bit more. However, I have the option of graduating early at Brandeis, which would probably save me between 10-15,000 dollars. </p>

<p>Does anyone know how a move like this would affect the thinking of law schools, or my career prospects in general? Thanks a bunch.</p>

<p>I lived in London and around the corner from Brandeis. I really don;t see why people like Brandeis so much. Staying at LSE won't affect you getting into Law school here as you have to take the LSATs either way. Plus maybe international experience may be a good piece for your Law school apps. What counts most is where you'll be more happy.</p>
