I was accepted here and am looking for further information, maybe from someone who currently attends.|||Just a cautionary note:
Law in Louisiana is different from all other states in the Union -
Louisiana has "Napoleonic Law" - It affects property rights, marriage laws and *some" Interstate Commerce (ICC law trumps Louisiana trade laws, but in cases where there is no ICC law in effect, Louisiana law will hold, and it tends to be different).
If you go to law school in Louisiana, you *may* (I don't know about this school you mentioned and their focus) be stuck with an education that limits you to that area only.
EDIT (after I got the thumbs down):
From Wiki:
...Louisiana's civil code has kept its Roman roots and
some of its aspects feature influences by the
Napoleonic Code, but is based more on Roman
and Spanish civil traditions. As a result, the bar exam
and legal standards of practice in Louisiana
are significantly different from other states,....
So there.
