Hi,
I was hoping I could solicit some advice. I am looking to apply to University of Chicago for the ED, and while the deadline is May 15th, I would love to submit on the first day (April 15th)-so some quick advice would be great.
1. When I apply to transfer, do I need to make a new LSAC account for the transfer, or can I just use the old one I used for applying to law schools?
2. I have no clue about how to find the Law School Information Form on LSAC so that my school can send this Form to University of Chicago.
3. I'm also not sure how to send a law school transcript via LSAC, as my Credentials Assembly Service has closed and will not allow me to edit it.
Any help for these three questions will be strongly appreciated. Thanks!

2) Check Chicago's website. The Law School Information Form will be downloadable when the app becomes available. So you will have to wait until the day the application opens. Then take it to your school and they will send it to Chicago.
3) You will have to repurchase CAS. Then, on LSAC, you will need to "add" whatever your current institution is to access the "Transcript Request Form" Then take the transcript request form to your current school and they will fill it out and send it to LSAC.
Yeah, i know, it's a bitch
