Texas JD programs / Law Schools ? Dallas and houston?
I love dallas, tx and want to live and practice law there some day. I am currently working on my BS and will be done in 8 months. I am moving in another 2 months to texas, but not sure where, Dallas or Houston. I am trying to decide where I can move in TX ie which is a better likelihood for getting into a JD / law school program. I have found 2 in Houston and Texas & M in Dallas looks like I will get in due to their cost and extremely high gpa requirement (3.8). What other jd / law programs are there in Dallas? I have contacted UNT Dallas with no success of response since I have seen it listed as both a pre law program and a jd in searches.

You've got this backwards. You apply to schools first and then go where you get in. A pre-law program is usually an undergrad degree, while JD is a graduate degree. Many schools have both. Who did you contact at UNT? You need to contact the graduate school admissions people- they will respond to you if you ask reasonable questions. But look closely at the website for the law school so you know what you're asking.
Here's the information on applying to UNT- https://lawschool.untdallas.edu/apply
You have to take the LSAT in April.

There are nine colleges of law in Texas. Some have much higher rates of admission than others. Those with the higher required GPAs and LSAT scores are uniformly ranked higher.
