T20->T14 worth it?

Post by Anonymous User » Wed Mar 05, 2014 9:20 pm

At a T20 midwest school, likely near the top 10-25% of the class (no rank here so pure guess). Was admitted to MVP and WL at HYS coming in, but opted for my current school b/c of the scholarship - roughly 75% ride. Would it be worthwhile to transfer, even to HYS and pay full price, or keep the money and bust my ass for top of the class. My school is national and a name everyone knows so i'm not too worried as long as i keep my grades up. Pushing for big law or a federal clerkship right now.

maybe even apply for transfer to get that scholarship to 100% would make it worthwhile, but when push comes to shove would it be worth it to make a jump, even if i could pull HYS?

Regardless of anything else, it is worth it to transfer to HYS and CCN if in the T20. I honestly think MVP would be worth it too. Really depends on your answers to the above question by brotherdarkness.

You passed on those schools the first time around. What has changed? What are your career goals? Do they require you to be at those schools?
