When it comes to attending law school, the question of student debt is inescapable.
Derek T. Muller, Professor of Law at the University of Iowa College of Law, shared his perspective on the blog, Excess of Democracy.
Muller maintains “A good rule of thumb is that ‘manageable’ debt loads are those where debt is about equal to expected income at graduation—i.e., a ratio of 1.00 or lower. Only 11 schools meet that definition among median debt and earnings, and a few others are close. Many are significantly higher than that.”
