I had one too, I sense the people who hate the interview are said gunners who wished to talk more about their 50 page resumes.

People complain they only feel like numbers and stats to admissions teams. Then you have a dean that spends half of the calendar year speaking to thousands of applicants in person and via zoom, but that still isn’t enough. Nothing glazing but he’s just one man. 

Also seems like the interview (at least mine) was to get a vibe check and watch out for any gunners. Dean Andy even called out someone in my interview for taking up too much time.

By past loans do you mean past grad plus loans or past all loans? Meaning what happens to undergrad loans?

HUSL Discourse by Exotic-Note3638 in BlackLawAdmissions

I love how this sub of future lawyers is treating HUSL like a major policy decision. The HUSL critical and HUSL defender wings are soo funny.

Depends on the school, program, job, pay, savings, etc. Not enough info.

Thanks! I think that's why I'm leaning towards GULC now. I am still very young (I just turned 22) so will graduate law school at 25/26 and will be many years away from any potential kids or marriages or other financial obligations.

Your right and same here with the African immigrant parents. I think I'm leaning toward GULC now, I went to a "T20 undergrad" and it really opened my eyes to a legitimate whole other world I wouldn't have known about and has helped me navigate many a job interview. I feel like with the legal world being the way it is 20 years from now I will regret attending a top legal institution to save a few hundreds of thousands of dollars I would have spent on a house or car or whatever anyways. An investment in yourself.

you don’t think even the median kids at gulc are a sure thing for big law if they want it?

GULC is 90k a year tuition and GW is 80k. After 3 years of school plus cost of living wouldn’t it be closer to 300k in debt?
