From Community College to T14

<p>I was wondering if law school admissions, particularly t14 law schools will downgrade your application significantly if you are a transfer student from a community college? I've spent my first two years at a California community college where I achieved a subpar 3.42 GPA. However, I was able to transfer to a top 30 university and have since maintained a 3.9 GPA, and am set to graduate with about a 3.7, CC included. Will the fact that I attended a CC and achieved relatively low grades while there significantly hurt my chances, or will they note the upward trend in my GPA and disregard my poor performance at CC?</p>

<p>Probably the latter, since your 3.9 at a top 30 university (Berkeley or UCLA?) will be given more weight than your 3.42 at a CC. An upward trend is always better than a downward one.</p>

<p>Yeah, UCLA :)</p>
