[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA is worth if you’re going pre professional route.   Banking, law consulting.  Due to top recruitment [/quote]

Curious to hear what law firms are recruiting UVA undergrads. [/quote]

Law firms do not recruit undergrads. There’s a intermediate step called law school  🙄

And some undergrad schools are better feeders to T-20 law schools than others.

For example, some schools’ pre-law advisors have better relationships than others with top law schools’ admissions officers, which helps with law school acceptances.  Also, the data shows that some undergrad schools have a better track record of their grads succeeding once they’re at T-20 law schools (even those grads with slightly lower GPAs), so again, that could create a slight advantage with law school admissions.

Finally, to get back to your point about law firm recruiting, it’s the T-20 law schools from which top law firms recruit most heavily. And they do so very early in the law school process (first year), which means the undergrad name/status/experience counts a bit more than it used to.

As for UVA, my understanding is that it’s an excellent pre-law feeder with strong nand recognition/respect and a large and strong alumni base in the law firm world - especially in major markets up and down the east coast and into the south. [/quote]
