What month do you all think is the best month to have a lease end during the summer after law school graduation? I just got approved for an apartment and need to decide on which month to start a 12-month lease. I anticipate i'll be staying in the same place for all 3 years, so starting date/month i choose will also be the ending date/month during each succeeding year until I graduate. I have no I when it would be best to have my lease end the summer after law school. I understand that if I were to stay afterwards and work in my law school's city this would be a non issue.

If you want to study for and take the bar there then you will want it to end in August (the bar exam is at the end of July). If you plan on moving to take the bar exam elsewhere you probably want it to end at the end of May.
