I don’t know from experience.

From what I’m told, Universities put their applicants into 3 piles: (1) Automatically in, based upon LSAT and GPA, (2) Automatically out, based upon LSAT and GPA and (3) could go either way based upon soft factors.

Soft factors include honors, quality of school, letters of recommendation, Minority status, extracurriculars and whether or not you were an athlete.

(This last part is the ‘my opinion’ part, I’m fairly certain the first part can be counted on as fact)

So, to put it another way, I am of the opinion that the quality of school would be less than at UCLA or UCI, but that the rest of the factors increase, from LOR from the President to being so well regarded by the school and having the free international study and whatnot, will outweigh the quality of school issue. Also, can’t fight that lack of debt thing.
