Re: CLS LR
I think it's safe to assume that if they ask about it, it matters to them. My guess is that saying you're transferring means auto-ding for LR. I advocate lying - they have no right to demand this information, and if they're using it for a legitimate purpose, won't be prejudiced by your untrue answer.

My school had a similar box, and they were just graded by different people. No more or less stringent requirements.

Re: CLS LR
I'm a 0L but the fact that they are being sorted into a different pile and being graded by different people does not sound like being a transfer does not matter...why have the box in the first place then?barkschool wrote:im sure the transfer checkbox is just a sorting mechanism.Longtimecoming19 wrote:Well, you've certainly persuaded me.barkschool wrote:lol noLongtimecoming19 wrote:I think it's safe to assume that if they ask about it, it matters to them.

Because the transfer write-on happens at a different time than the normal write-on.devilsadvocatetroll wrote:I'm a 0L but the fact that they are being sorted into a different pile and being graded by different people does not sound like being a transfer does not matter...why have the box in the first place then?barkschool wrote:im sure the transfer checkbox is just a sorting mechanism.Longtimecoming19 wrote:Well, you've certainly persuaded me.barkschool wrote:lol noLongtimecoming19 wrote:I think it's safe to assume that if they ask about it, it matters to them.

Re: CLS LR
Unless I'm misunderstanding something, we're talking about current CLS students who are applying for CLR, and CLR is asking whether they plan to transfer away from CLS.lavarman84 wrote:Because the transfer write-on happens at a different time than the normal write-on.devilsadvocatetroll wrote:I'm a 0L but the fact that they are being sorted into a different pile and being graded by different people does not sound like being a transfer does not matter...why have the box in the first place then?barkschool wrote:im sure the transfer checkbox is just a sorting mechanism.Longtimecoming19 wrote:Well, you've certainly persuaded me.barkschool wrote:lol noLongtimecoming19 wrote:I think it's safe to assume that if they ask about it, it matters to them.

Re: CLS LR
I'm not sure how that's possible. The poster posted this over a month after the write-on for CLS students happened. I guess it's possible, but at this point, it wouldn't matter what we advised the OP.Longtimecoming19 wrote:Unless I'm misunderstanding something, we're talking about current CLS students who are applying for CLR, and CLR is asking whether they plan to transfer away from CLS.lavarman84 wrote:Because the transfer write-on happens at a different time than the normal write-on.devilsadvocatetroll wrote:I'm a 0L but the fact that they are being sorted into a different pile and being graded by different people does not sound like being a transfer does not matter...why have the box in the first place then?barkschool wrote:im sure the transfer checkbox is just a sorting mechanism.Longtimecoming19 wrote:Well, you've certainly persuaded me.barkschool wrote:lol noLongtimecoming19 wrote:I think it's safe to assume that if they ask about it, it matters to them.

Re: CLS LR
OP here! Thanks everyone for your responses. Not that it matters anymore, but I did check that box and was wondering whether that auto-dinged me. The instructions said that it would not affect my application, but I was naive I guess! (Or did a horrible job lol)
