It’s never too early to create your law school application strategy! Apply Point's ideal schedule looks something like this timeline.
August and September 2025
Create an LSAC account and register for the Credential Assembly Service (CAS).
Reach out to your recommenders. We'd like you to get three to four letters of recommendation, with at least two from professors who can speak to your ability to thrive in a challenging academic environment.
Take the LSAT.
Finalize your school list. You want a hearty list of "I could go here" schools and you’ll ultimately want to apply to between 10 and 15 law schools.
Move all of your journaled experiences into a brainstorming document.
Request your transcripts—and this includes those from schools abroad.
