To ensure the benefits of diversity, we consider, in addition to academic credentials, a variety of factors such as background, experience and personal characteristics when reviewing applications. Submit two letters of recommendation, preferably from professors or employers, attesting to your qualifications for the study of law. Transcripts must be sent from the degree-granting undergraduate school directly to California Western Admissions Office. Hand-delivered transcripts cannot be accepted. If the transcript will not precede enrollment, the applicant must provide written documentation to the Admissions Office that degree requirements will have been completed but that the official transcript will arrive after enrollment.
All deposits are nonrefundable.
Deposits are not transferable to the next entering class unless the applicant has been granted a deferral by the Admissions Committee prior to the deposit deadline. The deposits reserve your seat in the class and are applied to tuition upon matriculation. Please include your social security number and name on all checks. Applicants will receive a decision or response in writing, normally within one month, after the file is complete. Review begins in late January for the fall class and September for the spring class.
