Withdrawing from law school
I've been accepted to Law School X. How late can I withdraw without having been considered to have attended? Is it up untill the first day of classes?

Re: Withdrawing from law school
First, have you accepted the offer of admission? If not, you have nothing to worry about - just don't pay the deposit and you'll be automatically booted (but the polite thing to do is to let the school know of your decision to decline the offer).onthemoney wrote:I've been accepted to Law School X.

If you have accepted, you can probably withdraw up until a certain point during the first semester, which will vary depending on the school, without there being a permanent record of your attendance (i.e. a law school transcript). Withdrawing before the first day of classes definitely seems safe, if your goal is to reapply to a different law school for the next cycle.
