@jb2028: I'm thinking it's not uniform across all lraps but I've been wondering say you're working limited hours for a nonprofit with a salary within lrap coverage range but have side income-- are you still eligible for lrap?

@menherachan: I don't see a restriction to work in Texas specifically here, but would definitely encourage anyone choosing between Texas and other schools to confirm that with the school itself. https://law.utexas.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/37/2023/08/LRAP-Guidelines-August-2023.pdf

Hi Thick thighs still obsessed w me?

@ararara: This also varies substantially by program. GULC and Texas both seem to require full-time (35+ hours) public interest employment, and specify that it needs to be JD-required or JD-preferred (also not the case at all schools)

oy we love jb's walls of text

Slight correction: Texas specifies 35 hours, can't find Georgetown's definition of "full-time"

@jb2028: ty ty I feel like not having to jd work full time would be a huge advantage within lrap

I assume side income is not a problem in itself (though it would be added to your income for LRAP purposes), unless it keeps someone from hitting a school's definition of "full-time" at their LRAP-eligible job

@ararara: Yeah, the programs that provide flexibility for (e.g.) non-legal nonprofit or Gov work, leaves of absence, parental leave, etc. are great for people whose next 10 years are not set in stone

Thanks jb I think everybody here really appreciates you having our backs.

Pongleton

I think at sls' (I think???) LRAP info session they talked about only needing 51% of your work or something like that towards the "qualifying employment"

Pongleton

19:27

this could be a total lie but worth looking into at some places if it's true
