    It varies from school to school. The vast majority fall between 1 September and 1 October. You can go ahead and load all your target schools on your LSAC account and then check their release dates there.

    If you want to prepare you can always look at the current applications to see if they ask for anything you are not aware of. Some schools ask for different things for character and fitness while others do not. Example, if you have been fired from a job, some schools care, others do not. Its not needed, but it can give you a heads up to what to prepare for.

    @stepharizona, do you know if law schools call all of your employers?

    No they wont call (as far as I know), its more for consistency with your Character and Fitness for your BAR. The BAR will reach out to all previous employers and they do look at the statements and questions you answered for your accepted school application.

    If you fail to mention or "fudge" something on you application, it can became a slight to major issue on your BAR, thats why you always hear that you should do an honest and full disclosure on your application to the questions asked.

    Many schools post their essay questions (including character and fitness) on their websites, so you can start now.
