I know that Cardozo's deadline is not until the 15th. Are there any other schools still accepting applications?

Not so fast. Short on qualified URM's in August of 2008, Wake Forest proactively targeted me for late admission. I had never even considered applying there, and I wasn't really interested, but it was flattering that they came after me.malleus discentium wrote:If you mean still accepting applications for matriculation this fall, then none that are worth attending.

Might want to check out the American Bar Association's Standards and Rules of Procedure for Approval of Law Schools, Standard 303(f).john1990 wrote:I will work during law schoolNorth wrote:You should just stay at the job.john1990 wrote:Well i was leaving work in late July but i ended up withdrawing from these schools to stay at work since a project is running late

Hence there are instances where, if someone stands out enough they might leapfrog waitlisted applicants and steal a spot. If an outstanding applicant has a good reason - such as long-term illness, family tragedy or a very important work, education or community service project (like disaster relief, etc.), he/she might persuade a top school to accept a very late application.
Schools want to put together the best classes they can, and I don't doubt that, every summer, someone leaps over the pack at every school.
Also remember that applications are down; if there's any time in which extremely late applications might make the cut, it's now.
