Crystal Rodriguez, a recent law student graduate from University at Buffalo Law School, is teaching a class this upcoming semester relevant to Pre-Law students entitled Communication & The Law: “Introduces and examines various types of communication within the scope of the U.S. Constitution, the extent and manner of their protection, and governmental regulation of their form and content.”
Crystal has explained to me she plans on teaching the class in a law school classroom style that should appeal and interest any Pre-Law student curious about how law classes are held. I would highly recommend this class!
Just a reminder when applying to law schools, in that some schools require a dean certification. Please complete the UB Release form and also provide me with the forms from each Law School that requires them. Your law school application to those schools will not be complete until this form is processed. Aditionally, keep in mind that the turn-around time for these forms can be upwards of two weeks during busy times. So the sooner you get them to our office, the sooner we can get to work sending them out to the law schools you are applying to!
If there anything of import is found within your file (disciplinary records, or Academic probation) then I will attempt to contact you with the results. Having updated contact information on the release form is critical to ensure we can contact you and ensure you are consistent with our findings on your applications. If you were on Academic Probation, then that is something we will make note of in the dean certification letter. Contact me about questions of Academic Probation pertaining to your dean certifications.
Kaplan surveyed law schools over the summer regarding their applicant numbers. The study results appear to show that now is a good time to apply to law schools, as there is an overall decline in applicants nationally into JD programs. While competition remains very fierce, a statistical drop in applications is always encouraging to the current applicant. Read more.
