@2plustrio,

Stetson in Florida? Dis not enthused about staying in SC, moving further south is out of the question.

St. Joe’s is interesting. On the surface it looks like it could be a good fit. Is it at least on par with Clemson or USC in terms of academics? It’s a Jesuit institution- is it very religious? D loves G’town but felt it didn’t seem as if religion pervades every aspect of student life.

I only said Stetson because I know they have a very good law school with interesting accelerated options as well.

Disagree. Stetson is a terrible law school. Only 65% bar passage rate. Only 70% job rate; in other words, 30% of grads are un- or under-employed after spending $200k. Only 12% of grads make enough to pay off their law school loans.

The instate Florida publics are a much better bet.

Had a friend of the family go there who raved about it and the options. Im in healthcare so see, word of mouth is all relative.
