Widener Law Admissions Blogs

We have received MANY questions about applying.  There seems to be confusion about our preferred process so here’s the general idea:

• Create a portal account.
• Apply for free through law.widener.edu.
• Register for LSDAS. They collect your transcripts, letters of recommendation and LSAT scores.
• Pay for an LSDAS report.
• Your file is complete once we receive your application and LSDAS report.  If you want to add anything else contact the Admissions Office to hold your file.
• Keep checking the portal at law.widener.edu.  A decision will be available a few weeks after completing your file.  Exceptions:  wait listed candidates and Trial Admissions Program candidates, these applicants will receive a decision around March and April.
• If you apply through LSDAS after Dec. 31 you will be charged a $60 application fee! So skip the payment and apply here!

Hope that clarifies things!  It may seem confusing but everything is streamlined by following these steps.  Good luck and happy applying!
