Admissions Decisions

Admissions decisions are determined primarily on the basis of the applicant's undergraduate GPA and performance on the Law School Admission Test (LSAT). In addition, applicants may be judged on the basis of special leadership qualities, performance in particular courses, evidence of improving performance, relevant work experience, evidence of strong motivation, potential for contributing to the diversity of the law school, performance in graduate school, strong letters of recommendation from those who have a basis for judging the applicant's ability to succeed in law school, and the academic standards of the student's undergraduate school.
