NSU to FIU Transfer?

Advice?

Hi all! I'm considering transferring from NSU to FIU and would love to hear from anyone who's been through a similar decision, whether from NSU or another school.

My app is in and I've looked at the ABA numbers and feel (VERY cautiously) optimistic about my chances, but I'm trying to be honest with myself about whether the trade-off actually makes sense before I'm potentially faced with having to make a decision. Is the bump in reputation and outcomes at FIU worth giving up a strong position at NSU?

Cost-wise, FIU's in-state tuition would only be slightly more than what I'm paying now with my scholarship at NSU. That said, I'd be walking away from my scholarship, my friends, and everything else I've worked hard for; a strong shot at grading onto law review, class ranking...

Would really appreciate any insight from people who've navigated this or have a perspective on whether the move is worth it.
