Don't go to law school intending to transfer. For god's sake.sdb444 wrote:Because W&M has such a small transfer class (incoming and outgoing) I haven't been able to locate too much information on those who transfered out of the law school in the past. Is anyone here transferring from W&M?
Thoughts on what rank a VA resident would need to have in order to transfer into UVA??
There needs to be a disclaimer on the top of this page.
You'll need to be at least top 15% at WM to get into UVA. Probably top 10%.
Going to law school intending to transfer, however, is a horrible idea and you will likely end up disappointed. Don't go somewhere you would not feel comfortable graduating from.

This thread makes me sad that I didn't apply to W&M. Problem is I probably already way overdid it with 13 apps, haha.

I'm assuming this is rising 2L and not a 0L. (0L's see above).sdb444 wrote:Because W&M has such a small transfer class (incoming and outgoing) I haven't been able to locate too much information on those who transfered out of the law school in the past. Is anyone here transferring from W&M?

UVA accepts a large number (like, more than 2) W&L and W&M students each year. Usually this is like as far down as top10%. UVA also LOOOOVES residents. So I'd say top 25% should just go for it, and obviously anything closer to the top should increase the chances.

Although, if you really want it, I suppose a hail mary is well worth the 90 bucks.
