Transfer from Howard

Post by Anonymous User » Tue Apr 15, 2014 2:35 am

My first semester GPA is in the 90's so I am assuming I am near the top of the class so far. What are your transfer option if I manage to stay in the top 5% at Howard? Do I have a shot at T-14 or just a tier one considering Howard is ranked in the 100'? Does being a URM matter when it comes to transfers? Should I stick it out because Howard punches above it weight in OCIs? I am on a partial scholarship just concerned about the long term career goals on big law with a Howard degree.

Thoughts?

Depends on your specific rank. If you are top 2% or 3%, then you might have a shot at Michigan, Northwestern, Georgetown. If you're top 5%, shoot Georgetown down.

Where are you wanting to transfer?
