LeadAmerica Stanford Law School Program?

<p>I got it in the mail today-apparently a mock trial type of program.
Is it worth it?</p>

<p>I got in the mail yesterday and I’m wondering the same thing. I’m also curious about the cost of the program as it wasn’t in the brochure or letter…</p>

<p>Tuition and other relevant info at [Law</a> Programs for High School Students | LeadAmerica | Summer law and trial program at Stanford Law School for high school students](<a href=“http://www.lead-america.org/conferences/cslc/law-stanford.asp]Law”>http://www.lead-america.org/conferences/cslc/law-stanford.asp)</p>

<p>I received a letter a while ago, with the deadline scheduled for mid-April. As I have already signed up (and paid for) a PSAT prep course that coincides with the program, I never replied. However, the program administrators sent me an email a few days ago, letting me know that there are still several open spots. I was also offered $500 to help with tuition. I would LOVE to take the program, but I have already made a commitment to a different academic endeavor. I’m weighing my options–which course should I take? The Stanford/LeadAmerica program seems like a great opportunity, but I would like to know from an alumnus of the program who experienced it firsthand in order to make a decision that is based on real information and not propaganda from either academic course.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>I received the $500 scholarship grant as well, but I heard from a friend that this program is actually just a really bad, money-seeking program</p>

<p>My friend enrolled in a LeadAmerica program, however with a focus on medicine. She basically said that same thing that bearz8’s friend said – it wasn’t very helpful and just very costly. Not worth the money, apparently.</p>

<p>I got it too, but it was too expensive. I opted for a cheaper program at Drexel, and it is taught by Drexel’s staff.</p>

<p>Does Stanford’s staff even teach at the LeadAmerica Program?</p>

<p>Well, I’m glad I didn’t reply now.</p>
