Medical withdrawal, reapplying
I had to medically withdraw from law school during my first semester because of a sudden onset of serious illness. When reapplying, do I need to include an addendum? If necessary, how specific do I need to get with my medical history (especially if applying to a new school)? Does anyone have a sample addendum?

No offense, but this isn't really that hard. Explain why you dropped out, how the situation has changed since, and how you are ready to be a successful law school student.kiteinflight wrote:I had to medically withdraw from law school during my first semester because of a sudden onset of serious illness.

Re: Medical withdrawal, reapplying
I'm sure a quick addendum (less than half of a page double spaced) is all that is needed. It shouldn't be too serious of an issue. They will know more than I can ever hope to say: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 3&t=197451Ramius wrote:No offense, but this isn't really that hard.

Best of luck.
