LSAT Webinar

Michigan State University College of Law will be hosting a LSAT Webinar this upcoming April 7th.  It’s open to the public, but requires advanced registration to participate in this very cool LSAT preparatory session. I’d encourage UB Pre-Law students to check it out.  You can pre-register by going to their Webinar registration page.

Application deadlines

Just a reminder to everyone that application deadlines are right around the corner if not already passed.  If you have questions about the deadlines for schools that you are applying to (or considering applying to) there are of course several ways to find out how late you can get your applications out.  To discover the “official” deadline date, you can simply view the electronic application main menu for that law school in your account.  However, many schools have a somewhat (and sometimes begrudging) flexible deadline for applications received.

Please contact law schools if you have any questions whatsoever about the deadlines for application materials.

For those of you not applying for this upcoming application cycle of 2009, please remember to get your applications out early when you do apply.  An ideal timeline would be to have your applications out no later than Winter Break for the next Fall admission.
