Hey y'all, first time poster here with a transfer question. I'm currently at a midwest T2. I have a full tuition scholarship, finished in the top 4%, and am on LR and Moot Court (my school is especially strong in moot court). My fiance is attending Brown University in the Fall and I am transferring mostly to follow her, but also for the same reasons as anyone else (stronger school, better employment, etc...)
I applied to Harvard and Yale (don't bother mocking me I know its impossible but why not but my name in for a miracle) as well as Boston College. Going on the assumption that I'll only get into Boston College, would it be worth it to transfer. I could survive being away from my fiance for two years but would then want to move east to be near her when I seek employment.
I don't care about BigLaw, I want to work in public interest law, maybe criminal like the public defender route or maybe civil, finding a small civil liberties firm that does 1983 cases and whatnot.
