How we source law school admission data
Each provider's data on this site is taken from that provider's own published source. This page describes the source per provider, the refresh discipline, and what we do not publish.
Sources, by provider
- ABA Standard 509 Information Reports. Every ABA-accredited US law school publishes a Standard 509 Information Report annually under the American Bar Association rules. The report covers admission profile (LSAT 25/50/75, GPA 25/50/75), tuition, employment outcomes, bar passage. Each school's data on this site is taken from that school's most recent 509 report.
- LSAC published data. Law School Admission Council published nationwide LSAT score distributions, application-cycle data, and fee waiver eligibility published guidance.
- ABA Section of Legal Education published guidance. ABA accreditation status, recently-approved schools, and provisional-status changes taken from the ABA Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar.
What we deliberately do not publish
- Personalised admissions advice. This site publishes published admissions data. It does not advise on individual applications. For admissions consulting, contact a qualified admissions consultant.
- Predictions of admission outcomes. Calculator-style 'will I get in?' outputs are not published. Admission decisions are committee-driven and depend on essay quality, recommendations, and full-application context.
- Personal applicant data. Tools run entirely in your browser. Your LSAT / GPA / target-school inputs are not transmitted, logged, or stored.
Update cadence
Site values update only when the underlying reality changes. Triggers:
- Annual ABA 509 report cycle (typically December for previous admissions cycle)
- Law school accreditation status change
- LSAC scoring or application-cycle rule change
- Material US News & World Report ranking methodology change that affects published priorities
Cosmetic date bumps are not made.
