The law school application usually opens in Early of September and most law schools are accepting the application through March to May next year. There are different types of deadlines such as priority and early decision deadline and it varies by school.
  • Early Decision Deadline. The deadline for early decision or early action is mostly mid of November or early of December. Some law schools such as Georgetown University Law Center and Villanova University School of Law accept the early decision application until February or March next year. If you want to apply for the early decision, you may need to check whether it is a binding or non-binding commitment.
  • Priority/scholarship Deadline. It is the deadline for merit scholarship consideration. The date varies by school, but many schools have the date in November or December. Most law schools has its own law school scholarship program and require earlier application than regular decision deadline for the scholarship. Some schools use the priority deadline as an early decision deadline.
  • Regular Decision Deadline It is the actual deadline for law school application. You may submit the application first, and then can submit other required martials such as personal statement and LSAT scores depending on school's application process policy. Some schools use the regular deadline as a final deadline, while the others allow to apply after the regular decision deadline. March 15 is the most common regular decision deadline.
  • Final Deadline Literally, It is the final chance to apply. If a school has a regular decision deadline and accepts application after that date, it may have the final deadline. In general, you need to submit all required items along with your application..
The following table lists all ABA accredited law schools with their application deadline. Note that you need to check school's application policy such as early decision and late application allowance.
