One warning about going to law school part time. A lot of part time law students have no other job. That’s especially true at schools like Fordham and Georgetown.

<p>Sure, but that’s their choice. Those students could hold full-time jobs with which to minimize their debt. In contrast, regular full-time law students have no chance to hold simultaneous full-time jobs.</p>

In one sense the story is an inspiring one. Friend began school going part time and ended up getting a big firm job. In another sense, though, it’s a cautionary tale. If you do go to law school at night, you may be competing with classmates who have no other obligations.

<p>Well, contrast that with going to school during the daytime, where you’re definitely competing against classmates who have no other obligations. The competition is clearly far more intense.</p>
