[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whatever he does, don’t take out large loans for a third tier law school. [b]If he can go to a tip law school, he should be able to pay off his loans easily[/b].[/quote] This isn't necessarily true. If he works for a law firm after going to a top tier school, sure, but a lot of public interest jobs that are very competitive do not pay enough to pay down the full cost of law school in loans. PSLF is an option but that is a long ten years and for many people, esp folks who work before going to law school, encompasses their prime years for starting a family, buying a house, etc... all things that giant six figure debt can make harder/more anxiety provoking. I would advise people to think about what they want to do after law school and be realistic about the starting salaries and what loan payments look like. [/quote]
