Notify law schools of part time semester? - Resolved!

Post by jumbo2016 » Wed Nov 04, 2015 1:28 pm

I am starting to look into taking only 2 or 3 classes my final semester and going to school as a part time student to save money. I only need one class to graduate. Would this negatively impact my law school applications? And is this something I should notify law schools about that have already accepted me or where I am under review? From my understanding being a part time student second semester of senior year is pretty common. Thanks!

I don't see why law schools could possibly care. They'll see it in your transcript, but I doubt anybody will give it a second thought.

Yeah I never thought about this, but I assumed they'd see it on the trancript.

It would be best to contact some of the schools you are interested in applying to and asking whether it is necessary to disclose. In addition, you may also contact the site in which you are submitting your application to see if it is needed.

Best of luck!
