What factors are considered by the Admissions Committee when applications are reviewed?

The Faculty Committee on Admissions examines an application for additional indicators of a student’s potential to succeed in law school. Such indicators include the difficulty of the discipline studied and the upward trend in academic performance. The amount of time a student spent involved in extra-curricular activities and/or employment while in undergraduate school (thus decreasing the student’s study time), graduate work, and other maturing experiences are also considered by the Committee. LSAT scores from the tests taken between June 2003 and February 2008 will be considered for fall 2008 admission.
