Background: JD, interested in financial law, hope to come back to China within 10 to 15 years. Fordham's reputation in China seems awful. I haven't met a single person in China who knows what is Fordham. How many chinese are in their law school? Disregarding cost, I am more leaning towards Boston now, soliciting advice. Plus the director of admission at BU wrote personal notes on the acceptance letter, is that their common practice or something I am really specially, i hope for the later anyway. Thanks.

可能是都写，我的上面也有
“Fordham's reputation in China seems awful. ”
“How many chinese are in their law school?” 1？just a hearsay
可能是case by case,本人对上述言论不承担法律责任
I agree with people here. It is matter of where you want to work when you graduate.
Going back to China while making half million US dollars is distance away. Let it not cloud your judgement.
有没有在Boston U 和 Fordham 的同学或校友呀， 真想和你们聊聊。 biglaw 就业方面Fordham 会比BU 强这么多吗。
if you don't care where to work. Boston U is pretty good. How can you lose?
BU ranks No.2 in Boston now. (was ranking No. 3 two years ago. ) :-) Fordham is always No. 3 in NYC.
Depends where you want to practice. If you want to practice in New York, probably Fordham is better. The location is really nice. Lincoln center. There will be a lot of free concert in summer.
congratulations!
"BU ranks No.2 in Boston now. (was ranking No. 3 two years ago. ) :-) Fordham is always No. 3 in NYC."
Loyola is No.3 in LA and Chicago-Kent is No.3 in Chicago, so what?
看LSAC report, Fordham law 好像没有一个外国人那， 怎么会这样？我不会是去那的第一个JD外国人吧。
Question here:
According to USnews, the 25%-75% private sector salary for fordham and bu graduates are 70k-125k and 110k-125k respectively.
If fordham places half of the class in biglaw in NYC, why is there a huge difference in salary at the lower end ? is that those fordham graduates who couldn't get into biglaw fare far worse than that of bu graduates? what am i missing here.
Thanks.

Maybe the less paid graduates of BU did not turn in the survey.

good finding!
you are right. the risk of going to a lower ranked school is that you cannot screw up your grades in law school. if you fall into the second half of the class, you are dead meat. (in law, we call it "a job in toliet law")
if you are afraid of those hopeless law classes, go to the highest ranked school you can possibly go.

This should not be the only reason, otherwise it will be pretty difficult to understand the lower-bound salary difference between UCLA and USC.
Fordham is quite good in NYC.
