<p>If I was to do the nj stars scholarship ,where you attend a community college for two years and then transfer to a state university for two more, how would law schools view that?</p>
<p>it would probably put you a little behind people with the same GPA and LSAT score who only attended a four-year school, but it’s not insurmountable…in fact, if your GPA is higher because you do better in community college classes, it may not be too much of a hindrance at all. Just get the best GPA and LSAT scores you can and see what happens. One thing I’d urge is taking a year off between college and law school, because if you apply as a college senior law schools would only see one year of grades from wherever you’ve transferred to, and they’ll probably be more willing to admit you after seeing two full years of bachelor’s-level work.</p>
<p>If your GPA is higher than your competitors who attended the college all 4 years, then you have the upperhand. They do not care where you went, they just want the GPA. You aren’t considered a “lower” applicant or anything.</p>
<p>From my research, law school take in consideration what undergrad school you attended. A 4.0 at HYSB is different from a 4.0 at a community college. If you are able to maintain a high GPA after transferring then I don’t think you have to much to worry about. But it does has some weight in the admission process.</p>
