Elizabeth Durso Branch

I graduated from MCSOL in 1990 as a single mom with two boys in elementary school. What made the school stand out from others for me? The faculty and the administration that truly cared about its students. I was one of several single moms in my class. I was one of several "older than average" students making a career change. I never felt like a number. The people of Jackson, Mississippi are also a part of the success of the school. As a Texas transplant without any family in Mississippi, the parents of my sons' classmates offered car pooling and sleep overs when I was in the middle of exams. I cannot imagine a better fit for law school for me when I combine what the school offered and the kindness of the people of Jackson. The Jackson law firms support the school and hire many for summer associate positions. By the way, I returned to Texas and I enjoy a successful law practice. Alumni outside of Mississippi do get good jobs and great jobs. All of my fellow Texas classmates and I passed the Texas Bar the first time--a 100% pass rate for MCSOL. If you want a wonderful school which will provide you with a wonderful, solid legal education while living in a city that offers a reasonable cost of living, friendship, culture and entertainment, apply to Mississippi College School of Law.

I'm a 2010 MCSOL graduate and while I agree with pretty much everything above, I want to point out that my incoming class (in 2007) was just shy of 200.
