Law School Emails
How much do law schools know about me before I actually apply? I get a little uneasy when I get emails from TTTT schools that I have no interest in. Do they see my numbers and assume that this is where I'll go? Which makes no sense, as I don't even have an LSAT score yet. Does LSAC make applicant information publicly available to admission offices when they register, before an applicant sends their applications?

Yeah. During the admissions cycle expect to get several emails daily from random schools.Cochran wrote:Does LSAC make applicant information publicly available to admission offices when they register, before an applicant sends their applications?
No need to feel uneasy.

Re: Law School Emails
You probably signed up for candidate referral service on the LSAC website. Schools can access this website for relevant information. Not surprisingly, most of these schools are just desperate. Some will even tell you, in July no less, that it is not too late to apply for the fall semester. Ignore them. They send this to everyone. But once you have your numbers, and assuming they are good, you may also get emails from schools like Duke and Columbia. These emails will make you pleased when you receive them, especially if they offer fee waivers.

Re: Law School Emails
What kind of scores do you need to receive emails, and more importantly fee waivers, from top schools? The best school I've received mail from so far has been WUSTL. They even offered to let me apply for this fall semester, but..Ron Howard wrote:You probably signed up for candidate referral service on the LSAC website.

Re: Law School Emails
No sure, but I received emails and fee waives from schools that I had below average LSAT (though above average gpa) for. If you visit a school or email the admissions office and show interest in them, they may give you one.
