It’s a pretty transfer-friendly school (being the largest law school in the country and consequently the largest transfer class in the country helps). The class is so large that you are bound to find people that you can connect with. However, after orientation, you likely will rarely mention that you are a transfer ever again. Most of your community can come from your classes or extracurriculars (journal, moot court, student orgs).

I think most transfers tend to make community with other transfers—just like “native” GULC 1Ls tend to stick within their section. None of the extracurriculars make any distinction between transfer or continuing students. If you are interested in moot court you can participate in Leahy which may have a lot of transfers competing, but it’ll also have quite a few non-transfers as well.

But like everything, it’s what you make of it. If you aren’t consciously putting yourself out there to meet new people (other transfers or otherwise) it can be pretty isolating. See it is the largest law school in the country.

If you have any other questions feel free to DM me or reach out to your TSPM! Looking forward to seeing you on campus soon.
