<p>It is worth remembering that college is more than spending four years to attain a good GPA for law school admission. Your mentors and peers at school will play a large role in how you come to view issues on many fronts. Thought leaders are more often than not found in leading universities and colleges. It should also be pointed out that financial aids from elite institutions do not involve loans and will meet full need. Thus, graduates of these institutions are not usually burdened with debts. </p>
<p>It is unwise to lump admission to T14 with generalized views. While the entering classes of Yale and Harvard share similar GPA’s and LSAT scores, only a small percentage of students at Harvard Law were also admitted to Yale. The same is true comparing Harvard to Columbia Law. </p>
<p>Best wishes for your coming college years and beyond. </p>
