UC Hastings v. UC Davis

Hello 7 Sage Community,
I would highly appreciate any feedback from the two schools. I received merit based scholarship from UC Hastings and is at the top of the list. As the first deposit is right around the corner, I am still waiting to hear back from UC Davis and app is still in review. Not sure if I should make my deposit soon or wait after I hear back from UCD. I would like to live on campus for the convenience there is the on campus housing app as well.

Ultimately, I hope to practice in Southern California and landing in big law.

Thank you and good luck all! :)

    Davis has slightly better numbers, but short of a personal reason to favor one over the other (like area), I'd think it would come down to financial aid. That said, you're not even accepted to both yet. If you favor UCD, wait until the deadline to deposit in case you hear back before then. If you want to get it off your plate and are fine eating the deposit at Hastings should Davis let you in, then pay the deposit.

    @canihazJD I am admitted to Hastings with a merit based scholarship and other funds. Still waiting to hear back from Davis and app is still in review. Thanks for your help!
