  Pretty sure it's Janaury.

  I think the latest is January. Just keep in mind that submitting later in the cycle could limit your cycle in terms of scholarship offers and acceptances.

  January... but you would likely have some consequences applying that late. Some schools (particularly the ones T20+) are sensitive to late applications. I think there is less competition at lower ranked schools though, so it depends on where you are applying. If you want to have a shot at all schools, I think November is the last one that would still have the doors open everywhere. (I applied in late January and February last year and was shut out at several schools because of timing, in my opinion).

  Like everyone said, January. There are some schools where applying late matters less (I think Yale is one), but I would consider staying out a cycle. You may have better options with more scholarship money down the road.

  January is definitely pushing it. I'm having a similar dilemma. On one hand I absolutely don't like the idea of applying so late, but on the other hand... I've heard of people getting plenty of scholarship money even with a late app. Ultimately, I think there's plenty of evidence that suggests the greater LSAT score is far more valuable than applying a month or two earlier.
