Wise decision since you will enjoy in-state tuition &, possibly, better job opportunities if you want to stay in Georgia or the Southeast. If you want to practice in the Northeast, then Emory should have better connections.

Smart to try. Expect prospective 2L summer employers to be confused though.

You shouldn't have any reluctance to explain the cost factor in addition to your other reasons. Most employers should consider this to be a smart move. I wish you well, but top 50% at your current school may not be enough.

P.S. Have you heard of other contemplating transferring due to cost and/or dismal job placement ?

Consider calling the Georgia Dean of Admissions for any guidelines.
