Since getting my BA In 2010 I have taken some community college courses here and there for fun. Am I supposed to send that in to LSAC?

Pretty sure that's wrong. The classes won't count toward your LSDAS GPA, but LSAC wants to see ALL transcripts.ladybug89 wrote:Nope, they only care about courses taken before first BA. You're good.

Oops, you're totally right, my bad! Looking at the website (http://www.lsac.org/jd/apply/cas-reques ... cripts.asp) it says they want all graduate work, including from any foreign institutions that "clearly sponsored your overseas study," so I think you do have to submit your transcripts from your foreign master's. sorry for the previous misinformation!rinkrat19 wrote:Pretty sure that's wrong.

But there is no option to submit a foreign masters. Only a domestic one. If you select the masters option, it asks you whether it was in the US or Canada, and then which state/province. There is an option for US sponsored international institutions, but mine isn't US sponsored.ladybug89 wrote:Oops, you're totally right, my bad!

The answer is always to call LSAC and ask.Seoulless wrote:But there is no option to submit a foreign masters. Only a domestic one.

This is one of the few times I would bother calling them because it seems nobody knows.rinkrat19 wrote:
