Question about the "list all institutions attended" question

Post by kelsey729 » Mon Mar 30, 2020 9:56 pm

When I was filling out my apps a few months ago, I interpreted this question on the individual apps to just mean where I am getting my degree from. Of course, now that I am about to commit to a school, I realize that is not the case. I took several dual credit classes in high school. These institutions are all reflected in CAS and on my transcripts sent to LSAC and all of the schools. I just technically didn't list them on the individual applications. Is this something to worry about down the road for bar C&F? Or should it be covered considering they are all in the application on my CAS Report?

No, this won't be a problem. Consider your law school applications as a baseline for the truth of your application for admission to the bar. So long as everything is disclosed in your law school application, it will not be seen as dishonest or unfit unless you demonstrate other qualities that may deem it so (such as aggressively attempting to suppress the truth, hide important facts, or what have you).

Agree with UVA, and if you really want to put your mind at ease you could just email the Dean with this information after you matriculate and get it on file that way.
