Top Law Schools

Wow, so i am dead worried about this...

So I was accepted into my second-choice school, and I deferred for a year, telling them that I have to work for tuition.

In reality, I deferred mostly because I wished to reapply to my first choice schools. The school I am accepted at let me defer on the condition that I do not apply to other schools during the deferment period.

My questions are,

1) What happens if I reapply? Do schools actually FIND OUT about my actions?

2) Will LSAC release my information to schools, telling them that I reneged on my agreement with the school?

I know that if they DO find out, they will rescind my admission...I'd just appreciate input from you guys! Thanksss!!!!!!

If you are accepted and pay a seat deposit at another school the original school will see and MIGHT talk to your preferred school, which could result in you losing both admissions. Why on earth would you accept a deferral with this condition and your intentions?

Because your 2nd choice school conditioned your deferral on not applying to other law schools, it should be pretty clear that you cannot keep your deferral and also apply to other law schools. Basic logic is basic. You either need to withdraw from the 2nd choice school and then reapply to your preferred schools, or forgo applying this or any future cycle.

Also, character & fitness is important. It would be bad news for you to get caught, and furthermore, you should just want to be an honest person. /interest in you.

You might want to consider another profession.

yeah, you need to withdraw if you want to reapply. SInce you are saying you want to reapply to your "first choice schools" I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you actually got into your 5th or 6th choice school, not your second, which means maybe your expectations need adjusting.

Why the hell did you defer instead of withdrawing?

And possibly complicate C&F royally.

You realize that you are also holding a spot from someone who might actually WANT to go to the school at which you are deferred? Unethical to even THINK about keeping your deferral and applying another cycle. Bro, you gotta make your choice. You are screwing over EVERYONE (potentially including yourself) by deferring and also reapplying. I hope you develop a moral compass before the welfare of citizens is in your hands.

Lol, moral compass. We're talking about going to law school here, not applying for sainthood. Many of us will be specifically dedicated to helping people and/or corporations bend, twist, and contort the rules.

But yeah, this deferral thing seems like a bad plan. They'll be able to find out from the LSAC presumably. Figure out a less stupid way to game the system pal.
