Re: Ask Howard Treesong About Law or Lawyering
[ QUOTE ]
this is very me specific, but im hoping you could answer anyways:
My brother is debating between law schools and has a full preacceptance scholarship offer from GWU. If he accepts the conditions is he has to go there. Im wondering 1) What can they do if he doesnt? And 2) It is that much more highly regarded than a canadian school like University of Toronto or Mcgill?

If he wants to practice in the US, he'd better go to GWU. Very few firms of which I'm aware hire foreign nationals to work here in the US. If he goes to GWU (where my dad taught for several years late in his career), he had better finish high up in his class, top quarter to have a wide breadth of options on graduation. GWU is somewhere about 25th or so, although as a poster noted, is trying hard to move up.
