3.8X from T15-T20

Post by Anonymous User » Mon Jun 09, 2014 10:07 pm

Just got grades back-- Ended with a 3.8x from a T15-T20 (estimated ~ top 5%). Current scholarship 15k/year. I have not yet started working on transfer applications (so schools with 6/15 deadline probably out).

Do you think I should transfer or stay put? If transfer, where should I apply?

Career goals?

Debt aversion?

Career goals: I want to start in big law... but could easily see myself getting burned out and doing something else.

Not debt adverse. Also, currently in a city with high cost of living.

Apply, use the acceptance to negotiate with your current school, and take a higher scholarship. You're golden where you are.

Apply, see where you get accepted, come back with final list of options. Close call, but you probably can't choose wrong if you stay or if you go.
