<p>After I graduate from undergrad, I want to work for about 4-6 years before I want to go to Law School, so I can save up my money which I get from working. </p>
<p>If I don't apply for 4-6 years after Undergrad, will I get penalized?</p>

<p>That would be on the long side for law school. Of those who have work experience, 2-4 years is far more typical. </p>
<p>But you won’t be penalized by the admissions committee.</p>
<p>It’s because I want to work up and save my money for Law School. If I go to Harvard Law School (if
) then I would have to save up alot of money, since I don’t want to be in massive debt at graduation.</p>
<p>Why would you give up 4-6 years of significantly* higher income to avoid a few thousand dollars in interest?</p>
<p>*Assuming of course that you get a good job, which is not guaranteed anymore given the way the legal market has been going.</p>
<p>^ Can you please make it clearer? I did not understand what you said. (the first paragraph, sorry)</p>
<p>The amount you’ll make after college will be small compared to what you can make as a Harvard lawyer. The better strategy is probably to borrow for law school and pay it off with your lawyer salary. Note that this only works if you attend a tipy top law school as there are many unemployed lawyers.</p>
