WE and Northwestern Transfer

I know for regular admissions Northwestern stresses work experience for its applicants. Will it hurt my application that I am a K-JD as a transfer?

Thank you!

i don't think it'll matter as a transfer applicant...transfers as basically cash cows to the schools and no impact on their ranking or their "Meet our class and how much work experience they have!" press release. Northwestern needs revenue like everyone else, auto-dinging K-JD's would only reduce the already-small pool of qualified applicants

I had 1 year of WE and was accepted as a transfer. My numbers were just about right with what arrow's guide says. So in my experience, no.
