California School of Law Rip Off Santa Barbara, California

Is a rip off. And thats what this school does.

If someone has received services, i.e. attended class, professor provided teaching services, administrative staff enrolled person as a student, then requiring that a student pay for said services is not a rip off. 

All students who attend any institute of higher education must pay tuition for the full term before they attend classes.  At all institutes of higher education, if a student fails classes, then they do not get reimbursed for the money paid.  Why?  Because the services were still used.  Every first year law student knows that taking personal property of another, including services, without paying is larceny. 

Based on the information I've read above, this doesn't sound like a scam at all, sounds like someone failed their classes and then doesn't want to pay for the services provided to them.

Moreover, law schools are professional schools, unlike undergraduate schools, there is a career they are preparing students for, everyone has to demonstrate the minimum skills to be an attorney.  If a law school is failing students, then they are doing a service to the public who will one day use the services of a poorly equipped attorney.  In fact, it would be a scam for a law school to permit students to continue to go to law school even though they are failing, knowing that the student will flunk out and not pass the bar exam.  The best thing a law school can do to protect the public is to have high grading standards and dismiss students who cannot compete with the average skill level of the other students attending.

This school actually sounds like every other law school who must make tough choices to make sure only those qualified for practice of the law are graduating.
