As a 1L, who is not repping the school...

About 100k debt or less.

Theyre `fine`.

the class rooms are good.

The side stair cases suck.

Not the nicest building on campus. :P

Come see at the April ASW!

Well, an 84k isn't terrible. You could do much worse. You still haven't said though, what do you want to do and where do you want to work?
I'd like to work in the north east, Cali or DC preferably but I'm not opposed to working where I need until I can work where I want(or transferring if things go extremely well)

Big law until the debts gone and then we'll see
I wouldnt bet on big law out of UMN. Its like a 1 in 5 shot

Absolutely do not bank on MN biglaw from UMN without ties. I turned down UMN with basically a full ride because I knew I wanted Biglaw and UMN only places like 10%. Plus, Twin Cities are mega insular, and every firm I interviewed with grilled me about my ties and my long term intentions in the state. Without ties, you're taking a huge risk dropping $100k+ on UMN.
