What's Going On in the Admissions Cycle Right Now?

Orientation programs are under way at many law school institutions, while others begin later this week or next week. Incoming 1L students should anticipate important emails pertaining to the program, the bookstore, and information on first assignments if this information is not already located in your admitted student portal—be sure to check your spam folder and stay on top of these communications!

For prospective applicants, 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 information session offerings 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.
