Law School with less then 60 graded credits

[Nemfis]

Basically.  Here's the thought process I would go by, you want to apply to the T14 that you think you want to enroll in most, I would do the top 3 choices, example: Cornell, Northwestern, U of Penn, or whatever your top 3 is.  Then, you want to apply to a set of top 50, a set of top 100.  However, having said that, you want to do one thing before you apply to any of these set.  Send a personalized email to each institution asking them about three things:  Admissions without LSAC GPA, Alternatives or Options to strengthen your application, Recommendations for rectifying the issue.

Once you get a detailed response from each and every one of these, it could be all T14, all T50, and T100 institutions.  If X of them indicate they'll have a null or no GPA showing on LSAC, or your application would be delayed, skip them and not waste $ on application fees.  If they mention they'll still process the application without the LSAC GPA, apply to them by making sure your application is strong enough in all areas, not just the GPA.  You want to apply to a few institutions in and out of state as that is what people do, sticking with one institution is not my recommendation at all.

agree completely, some law schools within the T14 take more of a holistic approach to applications compared to others where they just focus on numbers, GPA, LSAT score, etc. The law schools that will likely accept your application and offer a spot will be more on the holistic approach side of things for potential candidates. They do exist within T14 group but not many. Then, more if you expand to T20, and even more with T50.

Thanks for your insight! Any ideas on which schools may be among those in T50?
