Applying to Alma Mater

Post by rossco9 » Tue Dec 08, 2015 10:49 am

Not sure if I'm in the right subsection for this, but anyway. What do schools of think of applicants who attended the same institution for undergrad? Any info on whether this helps/hurts or is a non-factor?

Thanks!

You'll be a shoe in at BU with a 168 and your GPA.....it would take your dog writing your personal statement or a major C&F issue not to get in.

Anecdotally HYS seem to favor their own undergrads in admissions but I can't speak for the rest of the T14 or other law schools

It is a small plus, because in theory you'll be more likely to attend.
