<p>I go to CSUF, first year. I used to want to transfer, but now I actually like the school. </p>
<p>So my question is: do I have any chance at a T14 law school if I graduate from CSUF? Or are my chances pretty much out the door? </p>
<p>I know that LSAT and gpa heavily factor into this, but I'm just checking to see if school matters THAT much.</p>
<p>bumpppp!! </p>
<p>anyone know the answer at all? or something close to it? it would really help me figure out where i stand!</p>
<p>LSAT seems to be most important factor. A CSUF grad with a 172 LSAT will have better choices than a Harvard grad with a 164 LSAT. If you can get a 169 LSAT and a 3.7 or so, you would have a shot at a T-14 acceptance. </p>
<p>IMO- A Harvard grad with those stats (169/ 3.7) would most likely get admitted to a few T-14’s; a CSUF grad with those stats has a shot at one or 2 T-14 acceptances.</p>
<p>Thank you!! Your response is really appreciated. </p>
<p>Any idea how personal references, essays & extracurriculars (leadership, volunteering, etc) factor into it?</p>
<p>also, do you get bonus points for holding a job that took 20 hours + out of the week while in school?</p>
<p>That’s a great question. I’ve always worked 20 - 25 hours a week, though usually more, and maintained a very competitive GPA. I’ve wondered if the admissions committee would take notice of something like this.</p>
<p>Not really a major factor.</p>
<p>seriously? it’s not a big factor? it takes up half our lives and then the other part is school.</p>
<p>that’s ridiculous if they don’t consider that.</p>
