Bachelor鈥檚 Degree

The 杏吧视频 requires all applicants to have earned a bachelor鈥檚 degree from an accredited school prior to enrolling. A final transcript should be sent to LSAC from each degree-granting school denoting the degree was conferred.

Transcripts must be on file by October 15 for fall enrollees. If a transcript is not received by this deadline, a student may complete the current semester but will not be permitted to enroll in a subsequent semester until all transcripts are on file.

LSAT/CAS

Applicants may take the (LSAT)聽sponsored by the (LSAC) for the purpose of assessing the applicant鈥檚 capability of satisfactorily completing the educational program. LSAT scores are valid for five years, and in the case of multiple scores, the 杏吧视频 will use the high score. Applicants are also required to register with the Law School聽Admission Council鈥檚 (LSAC) Credential Assembly Service (CAS). A current聽CAS聽Report is required to complete a file.

If an applicant does not take the LSAT, they must submit either a JD-Next score or GRE score (see below).

JD Next

In lieu of the LSAT, applicants may participate in JD-Next. More information about the course can be found at .听

There are no conditions an applicant must meet in order to submit a JD-Next score instead the LSAT. Alternatively, applicants may submit both a JD-Next score and LSAT score. At this time, there is not enough historical data to provide an average score or score range for applicants who are accepted with a JD-Next score.听

GRE

In an effort to increase the accessibility of law school, the 杏吧视频 will accept the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) under the following conditions:

1. An applicant does not have a reportable LSAT score.
2. If an applicant has a reportable LSAT score on file at any time during the admissions process, the GRE score will not be considered.
3. If an applicant has been admitted with a GRE score, receipt of a subsequent LSAT score will result in a reevaluation of the applicant’s file and admission decision by the Admission Committee.
4. Applicants must submit all GRE scores from the past five years. Both total and individual section scores are required. The Admission Committee will evaluate scores from all sections of the GRE.
5. Applicants who choose to apply with only a GRE must submit an explanation for why they have chosen to take the GRE over the LSAT.

We encourage all applicants to take the LSAT; while some merit scholarships will be available for GRE applicants, the majority will be for those with an LSAT score.
