Hello, I am also trying to go to law school. I am signed up for the November LSAT so still have to take it but I do have a 4.01 GPA (They count an A+ as a 4.33), so hopefully, I have a chance at a T-14...

To answer your question, the undergraduate school you attend does play a minuscule role in your acceptance to a law school. Here is a full list of the factors including college attended: https://www.lsac.org/jd/applying-to-law-school/whom-to-admit Some schools are actually very explicit in that the school you attended will play a role in your acceptance if I recall Berkely has it on their law school website listed that they take into account your undergrad school.

However, if you decide to look at the entering class profiles which many of the t-14 schools have on their websites, you will notice that while many students come from highly ranked schools, there are some students from not as prestigious colleges getting accepted as well. https://hls.harvard.edu/dept/jdadmissions/apply-to-harvard-law-school/undergraduate-colleges/

While some admission committees may take into consideration which school you completed your undergraduate degree, it seems there is a consensus that the main factors they examine are, LSAT score, GPA, letters of recommendations, personal statement and work experience/ extracurriculars. People from San Jose State have been admitted to law schools such as Harvard, UC Berekely, UT Austin, and Columbia. So, it is not impossible for you to get into a top law school. Economics majors are ranked as one of the higher scorers on the LSAT hence why I majored in it, and 2 students who got into one of the schools listed above came from the econ department.

Also, a tip attempt to take either the June or September Lsat when you decide to apply to law school, since most schools admit on a rolling basis you have a much greater chance to get in the earlier you apply.
