You're probably right, i'll just transfer the first half into TAMUC then buckle down and finish the rest with them for the best of both worlds.

Do you have experience with this? Did you enter law school with a non-traditional undergrad or have knowledge on the underlying admissions process?

Yes, entered a T-14 law school with a non-traditional undergrad. The truth is, some law schools take a holistic approach to applicants, while others don't. Having a 4.0 GPA, high LSAT, etc won't make a difference with some of the law schools because they look at were you went for your undergrad (ivy school or not). That's why I said earlier focus on the full package, including practicing interviewing skills for potential interviews with the admissions office. Develop a list of target law schools, make contact with each law school, get to know them, visit in-person if possible, speak with directors of various law programs at the school, professors, former students, etc. Learn about each school's values, core mission, history and learning how students after getting a degree can make a positive change to society. Trust me, Its a lot of work and its even more difficult when its from a non-traditional undergrad. You will probably spend a year or more with the prep work. Also, you want to apply early, like October or early November, no later. 

You have to show each law school you are extremely serious about attending that law school and not just using a template with canned answers, same personal statement, etc. Do you have a resume, probably not, but you need to learn the formatting type for each law school and create one, some law schools request it, while others don't.
