While I agree that law school tuition does not qualify as work-related education, it seems that it does qualify under the hope/lifetime learning credit.

Quote:Qualified Education Expenses
For purposes of the lifetime learning credit, qualified education expenses are tuition and certain related expenses required for enrollment in a course at an eligible educational institution. The course must be either part of a postsecondary degree program or taken by the student to acquire or improve job skills. |

Yes, the lifetime credit and the hope credit can be used.

Are there any current (or former) examiners willing to share what their GPA/LSAT score was when they applied to night programs at DC area law schools and which schools accepted them?

I applied this cycle (2006). I have a 3.2/166. I got accepted everywhere except Georgetown (where I am waitlisted).

Examiner X,
I know you don't want to give your life story away, but was your 3.2 earned at a "top" school or an "average" school? Do you hold any advanced degrees or anything else that made you more attractive? Thanks for the help!
