<p>Are any top law schools (particularly UVa, Georgetown & Penn) kind of noted for taking a lot of their own in admissions? Or would applying to the same law school as your undergrad put you at a disadvantage?</p>
<p>Also, do law schools "dislike" students who have transferred?</p>
<p>I'm debating transferring next yr (I'll be an undergrad junior) to UPenn but if I do that I will have transferred twice (but @ my 1st school I was only there for a semester and had a 3.6 and at my current school I have a 3.99 and tons of extracurriculars). I just don't want to be at a huge disadvantage because of transferring and because I'd be applying to Penn Law as an undergrad at Penn</p>
<p>I'm sorry if this is confusing; I've just been frazzled over this because I have to decide by the end of the week what I want to do.</p>
<p>My recommendation (as I was in a similar position) would be to pick which school you want to go to for your UNDERGRADUATE experience, not because of what may happen after. If you have good enough stats, you can go anywhere from anywhere.</p>
<p>I have a cousin who transferred twice as an undergrad. Penn was one of his undergraduate schools; he graduated from another one. He went to Penn for law school, and is now a law school dean.</p>
<p>I transferred once as an undergraduate, and saw no evidence that it made a difference when I applied to law school. (That was nearly three decades ago, but I can’t imagine why law school admissions committees would have developed different notions about transferring since then.</p>
<p>In any event, there’s no point in worrying about what you can’t control. You have already transferred twice; there’s no undoing what you have already done.</p>
<p>Thanks for your input!! I am actually still deciding whether or not I want to transfer again but I need to decide by Friday, which is why I was asking. Thanks again though.</p>
