Re: Time Off
That strikes me as a better plan than U of O. That way you won't be struggling with debt if you discover that legal work isn't your cup of tea or if you can't find JD work upon graduation (as many Seattle U students unfortunately do).karloswhelms wrote:Some employees of mine convince me to apply this cycle. A few of them regret getting stuck in work and not going on to graduate school. I am applying to see how things go. If things go good and the offers are good then I might go to law school this year. I am leaning towards doing Seattle University part time since the place I work at is only a ten minute bus ride from there. I would not have to take out loans with this method and I would be able to save around $60,000 from working during the four year program after paying tuition and living.
I only make $45,000, with the opportunity for pay increases each year. I could eventually move to sales and marketing after a few years and make around $80 to $90k, but I want to work in public policy and public service law, so money is not the most important factor and the industry is not one that my career goals are aimed towards.
Good luck!
