Our Admissions Process
The Law School makes J.D. admissions decisions based on a combination of an applicant's undergraduate grade point average (UPGA) and LSAT score. The School uses that data to predict a particular applicant's chances for academic success based upon a statistical study of the success of previous students with a similar UPGA and LSAT score.
The benchmarks used for admissions, including Professional Exploration Program (PEP) and scholarship eligibility, are subject to change based on periodic review and without notice.
