Law School Application Deadlines for Class Entering Fall of 2017

With so many of you anxiously awaiting your December 2016 LSAT score to officially complete your law school applications, we felt we would highlight the application deadlines for the law school class entering in Fall 2017.

While these are the regular deadlines to ensure that your law school applications are considered timely, please remember that law schools use rolling admissions, which means that applications are reviewed in the order they are received.

Given that law school applications officially opened a few months ago, law schools have already started reviewing applications and accepting students who applied earlier in the process.

For this reason, we highly recommend getting your law school applications in as soon as humanely possible to maximize your chance of gaining admission. The later you wait, the greater the likelihood that the class has started to fill up, which means the remaining seats will be far more competitive.

Applying earlier will also increase your chances of scholarships as the number of merit-based scholarships granted will only continue to increase as more offers of admissions are sent out.

So without further adieu, here are the application deadlines for regular admissions:
