Hi everyone,
I'm submitting my app this fall 2016 for 2017 admission. Can I get some advice on when is the best time to apply ? Like exact month? Does applying in Sept/Oct put you in a better spot than Nov/Dec? Already took the LSAT and have been working on my app since December 2015.
Thanks!

Re: Timeline to Apply for Fall 2017
Apply as soon as your application is the best it's going to be. Sounds like you could be ready the day applications open, which varies by school but is generally in September.20171lhopeful wrote:Hi everyone,

Yes, applying in Sept/Oct does put you in an earlier position than Nov/Dec. Law schools operate through rolling admissions, so the earlier the better. If you're happy with your LSAT score, get everything else in order and find out when the applications for your schools open so you can submit on day one. It's often Sept 1st/15th, or Oct 1st.
