I wouldn't pay sticker at any law school, period. Your three years will go by a lot easier if you're not worrying about pay back over 150k when you're done.

This should just be upped to to 250k or at least 200k henceforth. 150k debt at most schools is like at least 1/2 tuition. More than that at lots.

I really doubt many if any people are taking out full loans to attend Cornell undergrad.

about half get schollys

Ok? And I'm sure about half have mom and dad paying their tuition

Great, so higher education is a privilege for the wealthy and should be seriously re-considered for most middle class folks who have traditionally viewed college as a ticket towards upward mobility.

Yes.

Just because they charge a lot more these days doesn't make 150k of debt any more comfortable or even reasonable for almost any school.

oh yeah I agree, I was just pointing out that the default figure most people use for sticker here is 150k. Frog said don't pay sticker and then that 150k is a lot. I was just trying to suggest that if a numerical values is going to be assigned to "sticker" that it should be a lot closer to 250k than 150k, especially if the goal is to dissuade people from taking those loans.

Not that we as 0L's won't continue treating it all as monopoly money though.
