In order to ensure that the 91制片厂s Office has received the necessary application documents, including the application fee, the applicant is encouraged to contact us throughout the admissions process.

The 91制片厂s Committee considers several factors in determining a candidate's eligibility: academic achievement, strength of the undergraduate program, application information, LSAT results (the 91制片厂s Committee looks only at the applicant's highest score), personal statement, work experience, graduate degrees earned, motivation, leadership and service.

SLU LAW requires applicants to use the LSAC Letter of Recommendation Service. A minimum of two letters is required and we will accept up to four letters. We encourage applicants to request letters from individuals who can accurately assess their intellectual ability, motivation, character and academic performance. We place value on content that verifies the qualifications of the applicant to compete in the law school environment. Send letters of recommendation to:

The Personal Statement is a way for applicants to communicate information about themselves that is not found in the rest of the application. The Personal Statement provides the 91制片厂s Committee with insight into the applicant's writing ability and individual character. Information regarding personal or professional goals, academic performance, and career history is helpful. The 91制片厂s Committee looks for brevity and clarity of thought and expression. Please limit the Personal Statement to two pages.

Is the SLU LAW 91制片厂s Committee considering the May LSAT-Flex and June LSAT-Flex administrations for Fall 2020 consideration?
Yes. The SLU LAW 91制片厂s Committee will consider the May LSAT-Flex and June LSAT-Flex for Fall 2020.

Is SLU LAW waiving the LSAT requirement? 
No. Pursuant to the American Bar Association Standard 503, "A law school shall require each applicant for admission as a first-year J.D. degree student to take a valid and reliable admission test to assist the school and the applicant in assessing the applicant鈥檚 capability of satisfactorily completing the school鈥檚 program of legal education." Currently, SLU LAW does not accept the GRE, only the LSAT. We will review LSAT tests administered as late as June 2020 for Fall 2020 admission.

Will those applying with the May LSAT-Flex or June LSAT-Flex score still be considered for merit-based scholarship?
Yes. Applicants who are admitted with a May LSAT-Flex or a June LSAT-Flex will still be considered for merit-based scholarships.

Is there any application deadline for Fall 2020? If so, when is it?
SLU LAW will continue to accept applications up until the end of the Fall 2020 91制片厂s Cycle in late July.

Do you have any advice for applicants applying later in the admissions cycle due to the delay COVID-19 has imposed on taking the LSAT? 
Make sure to have all other components of your application complete so that once you receive your LSAT score you will be able to submit your application.
