Charleston School Of Law Announces Deal With InfiLaw
JULY 25, 2013 – The Charleston School of Law will celebrate a new milestone when its 10th class oYou must Subscribe or log in to read the rest of this content.
This “alliance” is the beginning of the end for CSOL. Those that are currently at the school and can still transfer and those that have yet to come should seriously reconsider their options for graduate school.
This “alliance” is the first step of the sale wherein Sterling Partners (InfiLaw parent company/investment fund) evaluate the quality and longevity of their potential investment. The school is downplaying this right now, of course, because they don’t want to make the school’s value decrease on the talk of sale before a sale can even have a chance to take place.
Andy Abrams and the talking heads at the school will play like all is well, but they all know what is on the horizon. If the handling of this initial announcement is any indication of how the sale/transfer will ultimately play out, everyone involved should run for cover.
Unfortunately, all the malarkey about students being number one, maintaining an academically-enriching environment, etc just isn’t true. After all, the students were the last group to find out about this “alliance”. “For the greater good”? I think they meant “For the Highest Dollar.”
Some of us were accepted at both, but chose to not spend an additional three years in Columbia. Charleston was pretty appealing at the time, especially with talent like Crystal and Spitz that were plucked from USC Law.
I hate to be rude, but anyone who was accepted at both but chose to blow a shitpile more money to go to a higher priced lower ranked school has more money than brains. Or more debt than brains.
Charleston ain’t that special.

Unfortunately no one can transfer because they waited until after it was too late for all of the students to make the transfer to announce such a change.

More jobs because of the partnership with InfiniLaw? Don’t make me laugh. There’s not enough jobs for the chumps already enrolled in InfiniLaw schools. Adding another crappy law school to the mix won’t suddenly create additional jobs.
At least with local owners, I could pretend that the school was at least nominally interested in serving South Carolina. By selling the school to a company based out of God Knows Where, CSOL eliminated whatever small chance it had at gaining respectability in this state. What a joke.

It’s also rather amusing that one of CSOL’s stated goals is “To teach the practice of law as a profession, having as its chief aim providing public service” while the school’s entire purpose is purely for profit. Only a fool would attend a school so blatantly hypocritical.

This damn place should just drift into the Harbor and sink. There is absolutely no reason for it’s existence other than the investment opportunity for some retired USC School of Law Profs and other Chas. area legal persons ala Alex Sanders.
It is creating a lot of debt with no ability to pay it back.Student Loans are fueling this dump.

I have never posted on this website. I have only visited this website a handful of times in my life. As I find it distasteful. Having said that, recently a friend told me I should check out the things being said about CSOL.
It seems like every post on this website is critical of CSOL, which with the recent sale of the school is now warranted. However, belittling the students who chose to attend CSOL instead of the “almighty” USC is not. For those of you who constantly criticize those students and alumni who chose CSOL, I feel sorry for you. It’s obvious that you have something else going on in your life. Something that is driving you to get on this website and post these negatives comments. I agree that USC is the better law school in SC. It is so clearly obvious that all of you need not mention it every single time you post on here. So give it a break. Grow up. Spend your time doing something of value. If it makes you feel better to get on here and post negative comments, I suggest you find something else that makes you feel better about yourself. Go work out, or pick up a new hobby.

It’s a sad day for CSOL alumni.
It was a sad day for most of them when they were rejected from South Carolina and realized their only option was CSOL.

Should’ve already transferred if you could.
Better to sit out a year and transfer out than to continue to perpetuate their fraud.

University of Phoenix, CSOL division.
Next year they open a culinary and HVAC division on campus for those wanting to switch from law.
It will be a matriculation you could only dream about prior.
Cooks and HVAC techs are making more money than recent grads of either CSOL or USC
And probably have less stress and lower blood pressure.

CSOL degrees just got further devalued.
