Hi. I'm just finishing my first year of college (undergrad) here in the USA and I've decided I want to study law in Switzerland instead of here. Does anyone know anything about that? Have I wasted all my money on tuition if I go? What do I do? I know I need to get my bachelor's as well as my law degree over there.

Why do you want to go to Switzerland? Is there a school there with a better law program?

It's cheaper and I want to live in Switzerland. I speak French fluently and love the tax rates.
No your credits don't transfer (this isn't unique to Switzerland though) yes you will start from scratch.
You can't get US Loans to study abroad in most cases and cost of living over there (plus tuition) won't make this much cheaper than the average US University.
He won't be able to study Law in French only
Like even when living in a French speaking canton

This desu - and even if he was to graduate his chances to find a job and Visa sponsorship will be very limited if he can only speak French.
Also you won't be able to get a job working for the state unless you hold citizenship.
This is a fairly bad idea overall
Furthermore most Law programs won't be entirely in French - even when studying in a French speaking canton.
> I know I need to get my bachelor's as well as my law degree over there.
This is wrong too. You don't need a finished bachelors degree to start studying Law in Switzerland (or a fair share of European countries for that matter).
what a fucking moron desu
