Thinking about Law School?

Just thought I'd throw this out there. Massachusetts School of Law in Andover is still accepting applications for the September class & January's class. Their next open house is April 26th at 7 pm.
It is possible to work 40 + and attend school. I don't suggest it but it's being done each week by a pile of our brothers and sisters in law enforcement. MSL's schedule is very flexible for the first year student, they have their own entrance exam and do not require LSAT's, and have the cheapest tuition in New England. Downside: their not ABA approved.....that means if you are planning on practicing in any place outside of the New England area you may have to wait 3 to 5 years to take that state's bar.....not an issue for any one planning on limiting their practice to Mass.
The school has a wide variety of law enforcement personnel in attendance from federal agents to municipal officers to a few troopers that commute in from another state.
Trying not to make this sound like an ad but I'm very happy that I made the choice to go. I'm more than half done and only wish that someone gave me the nudge 20 years ago when I first got on. So if anyone needs a nudge...here it is! Drop me an E-mail if you have any questions. Here's their link: http://www.mslaw.edu/

As always, stay healthy and safe

Dear Sgt K,
Thank you for your information. I am thinking about MSL and would like to ask you further information about the school/program.

(1) How difficult is their own entrance exam?
(2) How is their schedule for someone that will be commuting outside of state?
(3) When you said New England area, I am assuming MA, CT, RI, Maine, VT, NH?
(4) Why do you have to wait until 3-5 years to take another state's bar exam?
(5) Your thought on their program and their professors?

Thank you very much. Please send your reply to tthn65@yahoo.com
