Admissions Question: April 7
Q: When is the deadline to apply if I want to transfer to Lewis & Clark Law School?
A: The deadline for Fall Transfer and Visiting applicants is July 15th; the deadline for Spring Transfer and Visiting applicants is November 15th. That said, we recommend that you do not wait until the deadline if at all possible. You will also need to your transcripts from your law school and undergraduate school where you received your bachelor’s degree. This can take some time. The earlier you submit all required materials, the sooner we can get a decision to you and the more time you’ll have to move to Portland (if necessary) and get adjusted.
