During your first year of law school, you may feel that in the garden of law schools you picked a lemon. First make sure that the problem can be solved by attending another law school. If this is the case, attempting to transfer to another law school may seem appealing. As might be guessed, the policy on accepting transfer students does vary from law school to law school. Some research will be required to determine to which law schools you should apply as a transfer student. If you have done very well during your first year, you may even be able to upgrade your law school. Note that even some law schools which only accept beginning law students for the fall semester, may accept transfers for the fall semester and also for the spring semester. Also note that it may be possible to visit another law school for a semester or year. |
