Has anyone ever been admitted to law school with the June LSAT for the same year?

Ever? sure.

probably not an offer worth taking, I would imagine, on average.

For schools worth attending, there have been a lot of stories of people getting off wait lists or getting more scholarship money because of the June LSAT.

I don't even know what schools have deadlines that extend into July. Just wait the three months until September to apply.

When I received my fee waiver from UCLA last year, it stated that there might be a few spots in the incoming class, and to inquire further if I was interested. I received that email in July; UCLA started classes in August. I was pretty stunned that they would encourage people to apply instead of just pulling from their waitlist; I wonder if something unusual happened last year or if this is just standard operating procedure for them.

Wait a minute, you withdrew from consideration and then UCLA contacted you and asked if you wanted to re-apply for the same year? Or did they give you an offer, you said no, and then they gave you a new offer during the summer? Either one seems very...odd. I'm not saying I don't believe you, I've just never heard of that before.

Current data is suggesting that applicant numbers are up for 170+ scorers and down for all other scorers.

Interesting, I don't go on LSAC anymore, but that's neat to know.

Not that I ever want to take Sfrost's side, but you aren't exactly disproving his point.
