Need Help with Picking Out the Right Colleges!

When you graduate college you’re on your own. You’re officially an independent.
Before you apply to law school, you’ll be an adult, have a job and (probably) an apartment with roommates, pay your bills, etc. It’d be odd for your parents to contribute to law school – although, of course, if they do, it’d be awesome.
But their responsibility is to you, the 18 year old who cannot get a good job yet, rather than to the 25 year old you who’ll be an independent and should be able to save his salary.
So, I’m not sure it makes sense for them to “save” for your law school rather than your college. It makes sense though for you to be considerate and not get into debt (nor ask them to sign Parent PLUS loans or co-sign loans for you.)

What’s the typical NMSF cutoff in your state and what was your score? (Wasn’t it released already?)

U Utah, Miami Ohio, U Cincinnati, Temple, App State, Ole Miss, U New Mexico all have merit scholarships that are worth investigating.
