One word: Stetson.

It's a Tier 3 school in an attractive market (in the sense of being a cool place to live) that has NO really good law schools and only 2 superior law schools in the same state.

I've always said this, so I'm glad I got a chance to bring it up ITT.

UF/FSU arent "really good" i guess which means t14 but I'd say youre underestimating their weight relative to Stetson in the state of FL. And Tampa/Gulfport arent exactly attractive markets if you use the words true meaning.

I disagree. The more literally you mean the word "attractive," the truer it is.

Elaborate.

Assuming that a T3 was the best you got into, would you go provided that you would graduate with zero debt?

Yes.

As long as:

1. No scholarship stipulations.

2. It's in the area you want to work.

3. You want to be a lawyer.

This is 100% how I feel as well.

But OP, also keep in mind that even a free T3 isn't free because you'll have living expenses.

I can only spend a few minutes scouring google for hot tampa girls before I start to feel creepy, but take my word for it: it's a truly lovely place. Maybe you're at Boalt or Stanford, but I'm in ice-cold hell right now.

If I were forced to choose between a career as a biglawyer in Chicago or an ADA in Tampa for the rest of my life, I'd opt for the latter. That's just me.
