I think if you're wanting to work in Boston, BC will have enough regional ties to land you a good job after you're done. I graduated undergrad with 100k in debt, and while it sucks, it's manageable. More so if you are making biglaw salary or have bills shared with a significant other (this isn't necessary either, since I pay for everything alone).

From what I can tell by looking super briefly at 2015 ABA employment statistics, Northeastern places hardly anyone into biglaw. They placed 16 graduates (out of 107 bar passages) into 100+ firms. BC on the other hand, placed 94 into 100+ firms out of 191 bar passages. HUGE difference.

I would say go to BC. And for what it's worth, I'm largely against more debt.. I just think the reward is worth it in this comparison.
