I chose USC Law because of the great climate in Southern California. After receiving my undergraduate degree at NYU, I was ready for a change. Also, I knew that the alumni network here is strong. I've also found the staff and faculty at the school helpful; I appreciate their open-door policy.
Law school takes determination, commitment and passion. If you think you really want to be a lawyer, then law school is only a hurdle—albeit a high one—that you must jump in order to achieve your dream.
