Have you exhausted all ways of getting it to 1 page? Slightly smaller font (11 I think is OK) + 1' margins?

Re: Can your resume be more than 1 page?
Depends on your experience. I'm a 0L, not a transfer, but I can tell you that I've had more luck with a 2-page resume than I have with a 1-page resume (I am 6 years removed from UG though, so perhaps your situation is different).
Ultimately, keep it concise, and keep it relevant. If you find yourself with more than one page, but you can't imagine paring anything else down, 2 pages is fine (unless the school specifically requires 1 page, in which case this thread is irrelevant).

Keep it one page. Feel free to remove student organizations that you've held no executive office in, make your descriptions concise, remove your interest section if you have one.
