UCLA vs UT vs AU vs GWU for Intl Law

OK. I've received the acceptance letters, now I have to decide:

UCLA, Univ. of Texas, American, or GWU for International Law? (My real focus will be international human rights, and I have a strong interesting in Latin American and indigenous issues.)

I'm thinking UCLA, but that's based mostly on their LLM job fairs, name, and clinics.

But American's Intl law program is supposedly highly ranked, the coursework looks far more interesting...and its half the price.

At the end of the day, I want to not only secure a job upon graduation, but set myself up to enter the world of academia later on...

ADVICE! PLEASE!

For international law, AU and GW have excellent programs
AU is ranked 5th and D.C is a great city...

U don't think that UCLA's international recognition trumps AU's intl law rankings in terms of the job opportunities I would get as a graduate...in both the international human rights practice and academia?
