What's Going On in the Admissions Cycle Right Now?
For Fall 2022: Law schools continue to monitor the number of commitments and any requests to withdraw that they've received to determine whether they have open seats that they will need to fill by admitting applicants on their waitlists. Some schools may begin to release sections of the waitlist if they anticipate that they will not have the ability to make many more offers over the course of the summer.
For Fall 2023: Law schools are updating their recruitment calendars to give applicants a sense of when and where their admissions officers will be visiting this fall (either in person or virtually). Keep a lookout for info sessions that begin this summer and extend into the fall—these are great ways to learn more about programmatic and curricular offerings, ways to get involved on campus, and a school’s overall admissions process.
