Bc Regulation Right Out-Of Senior School?

[gwynethpaltrow8]

I'm in senior college proper now, and i was considering if Boston College Law enables young children proper out-of high-college, or if they require a single to have attended a college just prior to BC law? Moreover, when they do not acknowledge kids privileges out-of high-school, what university is preferred, and what applications have to I consider, in order to enhance my likelihood of engaging in BC regulation? I really hope this made sense. Appreciate You.

Your ambition is commendable; but, you will need a BA first. Here are the admissions requirements for BC Law:   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ APPLICATION PROCEDURES To apply for admission, you must:   Hold a baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or university prior to entering law school Have taken the Law School Admission Test(LSAT) within the past five years(June 2004 or later) Register with the Law School Data Assembly Service(LSDAS). In addition, you must submit: The completed and signed application for admission.   Two letters of recommendation, to be submitted through the LSAC letter of recommendation service. We prefer that these letters be from college professors who can attest to your ability to enter a rigorous academic program. If you have been out of school for some time, letters from employers may be helpful. The letter of recommendation service is included in your LSDAS registration subscription. The letter will be copied and sent along with your LSDAS report. To use this service, follow the directions for submitting letters outlined in the 2008-2009 LSAT/LSDAS Registration and Information Book. Be sure to fill out and give each letter writer a letter of recommendation form from the LSAT/LSDAS Registration and Information Book.   A personal statement. We are interested particularly in learning about your motivation and preparation for the study of law as well as any circumstances that you believe relevant to the evaluation of your credentials. The $75 non-refundable application fee.   Official transcripts of all collegiate, graduate and professional study directly to the LSDAS. Once LSDAS has received transcripts and LSAT scores, it can generate a report when we request one. While we initially consider your undergraduate grade point average(UGPA) and LSAT score, several other factors influence our evaluation of your application. These include: The college attended and the academic rigor of the program of study. The pattern of your academic performance. For example, a poor start in college may be offset by substantially improved academic performance. We may place less consideration on your LSAT score if you have achieved exceptional academic success as an undergraduate despite a history of low standardized test scores. Other positive factors include employment experience and professional achievements; original research undertakings; graduate education; or evidence of academic and professional success despite social, economic or cultural disadvantage. We believe that a diverse student body adds depth and breadth to the law school educational experience. Therefore, we are committed to selecting a class that is widely representative on the basis of age, gender, academic background, race, geography, interests, social and economic backgrounds and other factors. If any of the factors described above are relevant to your application, particularly as they may have affected your educational record, you should discuss these in your application for admission and send supporting documentation when appropriate. Detailed statistics regarding the credentials of the law school?s applicant pool are available in the Boston College Law School section of The Official Guide to U.S. Law Schools, published by the Law School Admission Council.   APPLICATION TIMETABLE We accept applications from mid-September through March 1 for the following August?s entering class. Because we have a rolling admissions process and begin reviewing completed files long before the application deadline, we urge you to submit your application well before the March 1 deadline and to take the LSAT no later than December.   With the exception of candidates applying for the early notification program, the admissions committee will begin to review completed files in January. Depending on when your file is complete, you can expect to receive a decision within eight to twelve weeks. Although the committee endeavors to make comparable decisions throughout the cycle, the fact that an application is completed early may favorably affect its chances.   Early Notification Program   For applicants whose applications are submitted by November 1, with the personal statement and fee, and whose files are complete, with both recommendations and LSDAS report, by November 23, 2008, we shall send an admission decision by December 15, 2008. Should you be admitted to the law school, it is a non-binding decision and you would not be required to submit a tuition deposit earlier than mid-April. If you wish to apply to the early notification program, please indicate so on the application for admission.  Early notification applicants must take the LSAT no later than the October administration. [the dates obviously relate to the prior year] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   As for what type of college will improve your chances of getting into BC Law, I?d say try to get into(and do well at) the best school you are able to gain admission to. It doesn?t really matter what your undergraduate degree is in, within reason. Some students graduate from college and go straight to law school. Others take a couple years off for some work experience. If you choose the latter route, your work experience does not have to be in the legal profession.

tedibear said: 2 I think(but could be wrong) that any law school will want you to have a bachelor's degree. Most of the people that I knew who went into law majored in either politcal science or history. Some colleges also have pre-law degree programs.(Like per-med for doctors.)What kind of law you decide to practice, or what you want to do with the degree should guide you in some of your pre-law studies. Are you looking to go into contract law? You might want to include some business courses, maybe even double major in business and pre-law. Do you want to go into politics? Then you may want to consider political science. Whatever happens, remember that college is full of possibilities and you should keep your eyes open. It doesn't mean you have to give up the idea of law school, just stay open to opportunities. 54 months ago
