Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we're talking about how potential 1Ls can think through whether to start law school in the fall, given the current uncertainty due to COVID-19.

In this episode we discuss:

Being prepared for the possibility of online learning
If classes are virtual, do you even move to the area?
Seeking additional financial aid
In what cases does it make sense to defer?
What might happen to the legal job market?
Could some schools be in danger of closing?
