Top Law Schools

Coming from T18, what rank would you need? No work experience (6 month internship at small firm in UG), want better chances for Chicago market than where I'm at - family and friends all live there. I couldn't find anything specifically anywhere else. Thanks

My guess would be similar to regular admissions. I had very strong ties to Chicago, and personal reasons for wanting to transfer to NW, but was denied there and accepted at other comparable schools. Just a guess though.

Edit: COMPLETELY misread your question unless I missed an edit. Not sure of rank, I thought you were asking work experience.

Are many students unhappy with job prospects at WashUStL ?

P.S. Top 20% should get you a serious read. Transfer admissions can fluctuate greatly from year-to-year as much depends upon how many spots are available.

I work as a research assistant for a professor, and most other kids who are doing the same all seem to be thinking of at least throwing apps out. I think most people who have realized the market they want to work in are going to try to transfer (NY/Boston/Cali/Texas), which I'm sure relates to job prospects. I think you've got a shot to go back to these markets if your grades are good from WUSTL, but my measly scholarship wouldn't be enough to keep me from going to NU if I got in. Additionally, the St. Louis firms take more kids from SLU than WUSTL, so there's that as well.
