How to Apply

Create LSAC.org account

LSAC.org is the one-stop portal for your law school application. Create your LSAC.org account to get started. Add The University of Toledo to the School List on your homepage.

Begin Application

Toledo Law charges no application fee, and you do not need to wait for your LSAT scores to apply. After you create your LSAC.org account, click on the school name then Start/Continue Application.

Personal Statement

Upload a one-to-three page personal statement to share information with the Admissions Committee that is not readily apparent in your other application materials.

Resume

Upload a one-to-three page resume describing your academic, extracurricular, and professional activities. Include dates and number of hours per week. Highlight honors, awards, or special skills.

Subscribe to CAS

The Credential Assembly Service (CAS) simplifies the application process by forwarding required documents (LSAT scores, transcripts, recommendation letters) to law schools.

Transcripts

Submit official transcripts from all institutions attended even if a degree was not achieved.

Letters of Recommendation

Provide two to four letters from individuals who can evaluate your candidacy both in regard to your academic skills and personal qualities.

Prep for the LSAT

For more information about the Law School Admission Test (LSAT), we created an LSAT overview. To help you prepare, Toledo Law offers free Mock LSAT sessions with tips for taking the test followed by an official PrepTest. LSAC.org has also partnered with Khan Academy to offer a free online Official LSAT Prep course.

Take the LSAT

The LSAT is offered throughout the year. Visit LSAC.org for dates, locations, and registration deadlines. For January Start, we accept scores from the November or prior LSAT exam. For August Start, we accept scores from the June or prior LSAT.

Admissions Policies

The Admissions Committee sets admissions guidelines each year. We begin to review applications in early fall with decisions made on a rolling basis. The committee engages in a holistic review of each applicant and considers undergraduate grades and transcripts, LSAT scores, letters of recommendation, employment, post-graduate educational experience, extracurricular activities, special skills and talents, community service and involvement, personal statement, and other factors.

Deferral Policy

The Admissions Committee considers requests for deferral on a case-by-case basis. Admitted students who wish to defer their enrollment should submit a written request to Toledo Law Admissions outlining the reasons for the request. Should the Committee grant the request, a seat will be reserved for the student in the entering class for the following academic year provided that the student: pays $150 non-refundable seat deposit as specified in the admit letter, confirms their intent to enroll by contacting Toledo Law Admissions by January 15 (August Start) of the following year, confirms that nothing has taken place in the interim year related to character and fitness that would disqualify the student from entering the practice of law, and pays $250 non-refundable commitment deposit the following year.
Disability Support Services Policy

Student Disability Services is committed to removing barriers for students with disabilities at The University of Toledo by ensuring that appropriate accommodations are provided. For more information, contact Student Disability Services.
Non-Discrimination Policy

The University of Toledo College of Law is committed to a policy of equal opportunity in education, employment, membership and contracts, and that no differentiation will be made on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, military or veteran status, the presence of a disability, genetic information, familial status, political affiliation, or participation in protected activities. We affirm the values and goals of diversity, and we strongly encourage applications from all candidates, including candidates from groups historically underrepresented in legal education or the practice of law.
