Going out of state can depend on a lot of things. It'll cost more if you dont have a residency, for starters. And as far as financial aid goes, I wouldn't worry myself with that just yet. Wait until after you get back your LSAT scores, you could do well enough to get a full ride. I have 4 friends who all got full rides to UF law. I'd also suggest that you look at each school and try to find out what they're known for more less. For example, Stetson down by where you are is known more less as a school where litigators like to go. Litigation is not my thing and so I wouldn't like to go there. It's also more expensive being a private school. I, like you, will be taking the LSAT this Fall term. My GPA isnt the best in the world and so I have to do good on the LSAT. I have good test taking skills. Thats basically the reason why I got into college in the first place. I did really well on the SAT but my GPA wasn't something I liked to talk about. And from what I understand, while in your first year in Law School there is simply no time for a job on the side. It's kinda like this: 1st year they scare you to death, 2nd death they work you to death, 3rd year they bore you to death.
