Schools that take Feb

What's up with schools that say they take Feb. lsats but have deadlines way earlier than the projected lsat score date? For example Yale says they take it but their deadline is 2/28

    From what I understand is that they will hold your application until they have the score available. I've called some schools and tried to ask if they would even peek into the application before the February score is available and they weren't very clear.

    Can they look at your other score on file while you wait for February?

    I believe they review your application and wait until your February score before finalizing it. I think the effects of the late application is overstated. If you have a nice sweet LSAT that'll boost the class profile, law schools will definitely want you. Better to get 170 in Feb than 169 in December

    Yeah, you can request for them to wait until your Feb score is in before they evaluate your app.
