How much does undergraduate school matter? 4 Years, 2 Months ago Karma: 0  
I am going to be applying to Michigan, Virginia, Chicago, Northwestern, NYU, Colombia, Georgetown, George Washington, and Berkeley. I have an LSAT score of 171 and a GPA of 3.78. I attended what I consider to be Oregon's finest public university, the U of O. I attended U of O because I could go there for free.

However, I know that the U of O isn't held as a top public university nationally, and definitely isn't considered competitive with Ivy League universities.

Considering that I wasn't part of the student congress or anything like that, how much will the school I attended play into my application? Will my GPA be taken less seriously? What are my chances of getting into my reach schools such as Berkeley, NYU, and Chicago?
