When to ask for LoR

Post by kyledavidsmith » Mon May 19, 2014 1:10 pm

I recently graduated from college and I'm currently planning to work for two years and then go to law school. I was wondering if I could just ask for LoRs from professors now while I'm fresh in their memory, or whether it's required that I wait until it's closer to the time I'm applying.

Thanks!

Do it now. Have them updated if necessary when you apply.

Definitely this, there are generally very few reasons to wait for a LOR.

ASAP.

I had to ask one of my profs a few times before he got around to it.
