International students dont have SL's. There can be no default.— August 8, 2012 3:26 p.m.

Only citizens are allowed gov insured SL's, or that was the law 10 years ago, unless it has changed recently. There is no recourse to a lender if they lend to a a foreign national and who later leaves the country. Well, there MAY recourse under treaty/international law, but it would cost 100 times more than the loan. A US co-signer would put the co-signer on the hook, but then the co signer is the true recepient for legal purposes.— August 8, 2012 3:24 p.m.

**And by the list in the document from NCBEX, 19 states had non-ABA grad statistics, so presumably at least 19 states allow non-ABA grads to take the Bar exam.** OK, we need some clarification. When I say only 5 states allow a non ABA grad to sit for the bar-I mean that the non ABA grad may sit for the bar with no other qualifications. *SOME states (and I am guessing the other 14 on that 19 list) allow non ABA grads to sit in their state *IF* the state non ABA LS graduated from in allows the non ABA grad to take the bar in that home state *AND* they are already admitted in that state, and usually there is a time requirement of 5 years of admittance required prior to allowing the non ABA grad to sit for the Bar in the other state.— August 8, 2012 3:06 p.m.

Using that stats you just supplied, the AVE bar ass rate was 69%, CA was 51%, the second lowest in the data, a difference of 40%. CA is by far the hardest bar exam in the country and their pass rate is not "about the same" as other states,not when the avergae is deviated by 40%. Even if only using ABA LS.— August 8, 2012 2:49 p.m.

Mr Hosley, international students cannot receive student loans b/c they are not eligible under the law, not public student loans anyway. So your comment makes no sense really. And I highly doubt they can receive even private student loans.— August 7, 2012 10:37 p.m.

**A study needs to compare net lifetime earnings in real dollars - basically income minus taxes and tuition, taking into account effects of interest and inflation.** Good idea. As for family income and statistics, it is well verified that being accepted to an ivy league school is more indicative of your family's wealth vs intelligence.— August 7, 2012 12:24 p.m.
