[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t do it OP. Waste of time and money.
I’m a Fed at an agency where many of my colleagues are attorneys. I make just over 100k. Many of my colleagues are saddled with law school debt. I just have a bachelors and no debt. We are doing the same job. I’m sure a lot of my colleagues thought they’d be making a lot more money. There is a serious glut of lawyers out there and many of them to not make the $$$ to justify law school. 
Add online law school and your age to that glut and it does NOT look good. [/quote]

Well, if OP just wants to experience law school and then lounge around the federal government her loans would be forgiven in 10 years. Not a terrible outcome in that case.[/quote]

The likelihood of an online, unaccredited law school graduate getting a federal government job is zero.[/quote]

Why is that?  I thought the fed didn't care where you went to school, all that matters is the actual degree?  Is it different for lawyer fed jobs?[/quote]

Any desirable Federal government legal job will be very competitive to get. Also, virtually every legal position is excepted service, not civil service, so there's very few preferences that skew the applicant pool.
