Admission is based on the applicant's undergraduate grade-point average and his or her LSAT test score. In a small percentage of cases involving Arkansas residents only, additional criteria such as ethnicity, vocational or professional experience, graduate work, and progressive improvement in college work are considered by the faculty Admissions Committee. There is no predetermined satisfactory grade-point average or law school admission test score.
Admission is on a selective basis.
The Admissions Committee works only with the written materials in an applicant's file. Arrangements may be made by writing to Law School Admissions Services, Box 2000, Newton, PA 18940. Applicants for admission are urged to take the test at least nine months prior to expected entrance to law school. No pre-law curriculum is prescribed at the University of Arkansas School of Law or at any other American law school. Experience has shown that students do equally well in law school and in law practice regardless of their differing educational backgrounds.
