How large/active is the alumni association? Alumni will be the people your son will direct resumes to later on.
What is the grading scale like at each school? Grade inflation is the norm at the some of the best schools (Yale does not give grades, courses are pass/fail) while tier 2 schools can sometimes be very tough on students to ensure that the bar pass rate is high. He may end up with a better education from the tier 2 school for this reason. You should be able to make this determination simply by looking at the bar pass rates.
How sure is your son that he will be able to maintain the grades needed to keep the scholorship? If the tier 2 school requires a 3.00GPA for example, then he should find out how many people in the class achieve that level. (This ties back in to the grading scale.)
I personally don't think that the difference between a top 50 school and a top 100 school will factor into hiring at a high-profile firm. He will have an equal, and good, shot from either.
Many people go through law school only to decide that they would rather do something else. Is this a possibility? Less debt will free him to make this decision, or maybe work for the DA at 35k a year as opposed to a large firm at 110K a year.
